Shocking Mistakes You Won't Believe People Make in VicRoads Pre-Drive Safety Checks!

When you take the VicRoads Drive Test, the first thing you'll do is a pre-drive safety check. This is like a quick check-up for your car to make sure everything's working right. Here's what you need to do:1. Know Your Car's Controls: You have to show you can use these parts of your car:• Turn signals (those blinking lights that show which way you're turning)• Brake lights (they light up when you press the brake)• Horn (the beeping sound you make to warn others)• Headlights (both the bright ones and the regular ones)• Hazard lights (those flashing lights you use in emergencies)• Windshield wipers and the washer to clean the windshield.2. Find the Handbrake: You need to point out where the handbrake is.3. Identify Other Controls: You also have to know where these are, but you don't have to use them now:• Windshield demister (it clears fog from your windshield)• Rear window demister (if your car has one, it does the same for the back window).4. Start the Engine: You need to turn on your car's engine.If you can't use the controls in steps 1 and 2, or if they don't work right, you can't take the driving test. But if you only miss the controls in step 3, the tester will help you and let you drive. However, if you need help using them during the test, it could be a big problem.Remember, this safety check doesn't add points to your driving test score. And one last tip: during the first two parts of the driving test, keep your headlights on low beam, as the tester will tell you to.
