What is a key aspect of the examiner's conduct during the test?

The examiner's primary responsibility during the driving test is to assess the applicant's driving skills and ensure they meet safety standards. Remaining focused on the task allows the examiner to effectively evaluate the driver's performance, ensuring that they observe all relevant aspects of driving behavior, such as adherence to traffic laws, proper use of signals, and overall handling of the vehicle. By maintaining this focus, the examiner can provide an accurate and fair assessment of the candidate's readiness to drive.

Other approaches, such as providing feedback throughout or engaging in small talk, might distract from the critical evaluation process and could lead to a less accurate assessment of the applicant's skills. Overlooking mistakes could compromise the safety standards that the driving test is designed to uphold, as every error needs to be acknowledged to assess the candidate's qualifications properly.
