Step 11: Stage 8.01

Stage 8.01 Final Evaluation Test

It's better to take night slot, 9:20pm-10:50pm as there will be less vehicles on the public road outside BBDC.
Firstly, the instructor will tell you to ride 2 laps of circuit test route inside BBDC without slope, s and crank, plank, pylon and e-brake.
So after 2 laps, you will be on pair with 1 instructor as he will be watching and riding behind you on the public road.
You have to do Stage 7.01 and ride 2 times of public route as practice before going back to BBDC to take a break and wait for the real test.
If you're lucky, the instructor will tell you what are your mistakes from the public road.

There was 6 people including myself and i was the last person according to the tag number so i have to wait 2 by 2 by 2 to go first for about 10-15 minutes.

So, after waiting for my turn, the real test start now with 1 instructor watching you.
You will ride only 1 circuit test route:
1) Lane changing
2) Up and down slope
3) S and crank course
4) Plank and pylon
5) E-brake
Be calm and ride properly. Most importantly is to check blindspot.

After that, wait for your instructor to tell you to go out of public road outside BBDC.
It will be only 1 round of public road of Stage 7.01.
Be calm and ride properly. Most importantly is to check blindspot.

After the public road, you have to go back to BBDC and wait for instructor to tell you to go 1 round of circuit test route for fun while he fill in the Riding Assessment Checklist for your test.

So, for this Stage 8.01, you need below 18 demerit points to pass and process to book TP (Traffic Police Practical Test)

So anyway i got 12 demerit points. (I passed at one go.)
2 points - My foot-brake was early before entering S course.
2 points - I released throttle abit too early before reaching into E-brake box.
8 points - I didn't slow down and processed on amber light on public road (I felt it was too late to stop but the instructor told me to slow down early when approaching junction but i was already slowing down.)


After passing Stage 8.01, it will take more than 3 weeks for your TP available slot.
So within 3 weeks, you can either take SP (Self Practice) or RC anytime (Revision Circuit with instructor to correct you) while waiting for your TP. Good Luck!
