Please note: I am in BC, Canada, so some of this may sound different for people outside of BC.
I am taking a road test soon for my full privilege Class 5 licence. When I took the road test for my novice licence, school was in session so there was no confusion about slowing down to 30km/h in the school zone. Now that school is out for summer, should I still slow to 30km/h for testing purposes/assume there is summer school in session, or should I continue driving the regular speed limit? There is NO flashing light of any kind, just a sign that says "30km/h 8am-5pm School Days." I don't want to fail over something I could easily prevent (going too slow/fast in a school zone)! I read on the insurance corp. website (who does the road testing) "In July & August, school zone speed limits change unless there is summer school in session or a playground on site." Well, I can easily tell if there is a playground, but how am I supposed to know if there is summer school? Should I just assume?! I just don't know if the examiner expects me to drive normally or to slow down for the test. *cries* What would you do in the situtation?
