Driving Lessons with Satan(Part 1)

I'm going to be brutally honest. My driving instructor was downright terrible. He's either the reincarnation of the devil or Satan himself. I'm inclined to believe it's the latter. For the purposes of this article, I'll refer to him as Satan. 

For a month or so, I had been searching for a cheap driving school for a while at that point but none of them really fit the bill. Most of the driving schools were either too expensive or too far with no transport provided. Another problem was getting the right instructor. They either couldn't speak English or seemed kinda sketchy/scary. 

That's when my dad met Satan. My dad was at usual barber shop getting a hair cut and Satan happened to be sitting beside him. They exchanged numbers and we called him up for details later. Let me just tell you that it was cheap. Like really really cheap.  The full price was RM 1300 for a manual car license and an extra RM 160 if you want guarantee pass. In comparison, most of my Kuantan friends paid anywhere between RM 1500-RM 1800 and my friend in KL paid over RM 2000 without guarantee pass. Plus, he could speak (broken)English and Malay and Mandarin. We thought "This is perfect!" and signed up.

This marked the beginning of my days in hell.

How to Pass Undang Test

Static Driving Test a.k.a Undang/ Ujian Statik/ Ujian Komputer JPJ
As you might already know from reading my previous post, I scored 49/50 for my static driving test and now I'm here to tell you how to ace/pass that test! 

First, here are the basics of the test:
  1. There are two tests. One is for people who are trying to get a car license only and the other one is for both car and motorcycle license.
    -Car license only(50 questions)
    -Car and motorcycle license(70 questions)
  2. The pass mark for the:
    -Car license only test is 42/50
    -Car and motorcycle license test is 56/70
  3. The test is divided into 5 parts:
    -Ujian Buta Warna / Colour Blind Test
    -Ujian Huruf, Nombor dan Warna / Numbers, Letters and Colours Test
    -Bahagian A / Section A(15 soalan)
    -Bahagian B / Section B(25 soalan)
    -Bahagian C / Section C(10 soalan)
  4. If you fail the Ujian Buta Warna / Colour Blind Test, you will automatically fail the entire test.
  5. If you fail the Ujian Buta Warna / Colour Blind Test, you have to go to a hospital and get a doctor's letter stating that you are not colour blind.
  6. If you fail the first and second time, you have to pay RM30 to retake the test.
  7. If you fail 3 times, you have to pay RM11 to take the written test.
