DPS Test

I've taken the written portion of my endorsement test and I am supposed to
take the driving portion Wednesday. What is involved in the driving
portion? The girl at the DPS office said it only took about 20 minutes.

TIA,

can you wheelie while lane splitting ?

 

LOL. Well, hell yeah!

 

in tx, you have to bring someone with you who will then use their
vehicle as a chase vehicle (after the dps agent checks their paperwork
and does a safety inspection of the car). the agent rides shotgun and
will tell the driver honk once or twice (rules given before you head
out). the dps officer then watches and grades you.

be sure you chase car driver uses their seat belt and drives the car as
if they were being tested too or the officer may end the test early and
give you an incomplete.

 

And if you think your evaluator is going to be a stickler, it's
probably better to put your LEFT foot down at the stop, lest he accuse
you of coming off the rear brake before you've stopped completely.

 

Thanks, everyone.

 

My Son N Law was marked down, because when he was stopped at a Light,
and didn't keep both feet on the deck,the entire time, while idling.
Most of us, most of the time, keep the left foot down. (I said most of
the time)
PS, he passed, and about a month later rode off to colorado. BJAY

 

it's taught that way (left foot down, right on the brake) in the MSF
training (which is accepted as a sub for the riding test by DPS).

 

I've always used the front brake to hold the bike while on a hill. Two
fingers on the brake lever, and roll the throttle, and off you go.

Just another point of view.

‘‘Dittos here on the above’’ I told about my SonNLaw, being
marked down, for not having both feet the entire time while idling at a
Light'' I remember now, that he stoped and only put down his left
foot., but was told he should've put both feet down for a few seconds
to get balanced, then he could put right foot on brake'' !
Randy never put his right foot down, and was marked off for that. Many
times, I personally don't put my right down, during the entire stop,
unless with passenger, or there's an upgrade. (BJAY)
