Helpful Tips
Be prepared for follow-up questions: The examiner may ask why you perform each check.
Use the vehicle’s manual: It has specific data (tire pressure, fluid types, etc.).
Practice regularly: Many of these checks are useful beyond the exam, helping ensure ongoing road safety.
Good luck with your practice and drive safely!
