Milwaukee-Northwest DMV

Took my road test 11/14/23 . The instructor seemed irritated the moment she entered my vehicle. Long story short the instructor failed me by 10 points, stating I ran the stop sign pulling out of the parking lot when I did however stop before proceeding with driving, marked me down for turning without turning my wheel away from the turn before turning on a corner .I believe that I should have passed with a little minor feedback. I've witnessed young people were passing with other instructors and can I'm smelling of Marijuana smoke even before walking in and my wife is witness. Wasn't fair to me.now I have to wait longer to redo the test. Elderly people who can't pass the vision test gets a pass.im a safe driver and had 3 years of practice and driving solo and had 0 problems. Yes I was normal nervous but I drove safely and didn't make failed mistakes.

Passed my test! Even I would’ve failed, my instructor was actually extremely generous. She was patient, and wants you to make sure you always check your blind spot, and signals. May ask you to do a three point turn. I had to reverse out of the parking lot, but was super easy. Tips- seatbelt always first. Then adjust whatever you may need to… and be confident. Do NOT overthink anything. Don’t do anything until they tell you what to do next. So don’t worry about anything. They will tell you way ahead of time what to do. And If you have questions, ask them before you do what they asked if you to clarify- so you are sure to pass the test based off of being responsible. And aware! Vs, taking the wrong turn. Or forgetting to signal because you are too much in a rush to get it done… It’s not hard at all. It’s not easy either if you haven’t gotten use to basic roads. Build your way up to the speed limit don’t just hit the gas. Otherwise you could risk speeding over the limit you need to and putting others at risk, and yes your examiner feeling unsafe… I did none of those things. But I notice some people can do this and this is why they fail. When you back up, look into both sides of mirrors, and in the rear view then look back before **** BEFORE you start moving your car! Same with signals. Look both ways, then proceed. Otherwise, you will be looking everywhere but in front of you while driving which can be a fail because it’s a danger. You got this!!! You will pass! Don’t overthink. Make you wear comfortable clothing, and if you are shy, just wear a mask over your face lol idk what to tell you. You got this otherwise.

For as much as people say the DMV is a total drag with 2 hour wait times, I was thoroughly impressed at the quick service here. I made it in at about 3:30 on a Tuesday, and I didn't have to wait much more than 20 minutes, at MOST. The front desk staff were kind and courteous, and desk attendants were quick on their work and I couldn't have asked for more.

Surprisingly efficient for the amount of people they come through the door. They were extremely helpful. The counter lady who helped me last time was quick, efficient and funny. The only reason I can't give them a 5 stars was that the front triage line had me refill out a different form and then wait in that line a second time. But once they give you a number, it worked fairly well.
