I had my test here yesterday and passed my first time. This is the easiest MVA location IMO. Just so you all know.. if it is very busy and you are driving well they will shortcut this a lot. On Northern Pkwy before we got back to Reisterstown Rd they asked me to take a left onto Price Ave, then take a right back on Rogers and left back into the MVA. Just remember that if they do ask you to make a left onto Price that you have to yield to all the oncoming traffic. There is no light there, you will be in the middle of Northern Pkwy so use good judgement and don’t rush across.
Did my skill test July 2023. This was the exact road course I got. My examiner was chill, just told me where to turn and didn’t ask any questions ( I memorized the turns and speed limit from the video anyway lol) She even helped/ guided me with my parking from the first test lol I’m glad she was in the car with me. Passed with flying colors! Good luck everyone!!!
Thank you for this video. I was tested on this route this week and I passed. As of Dec 2022, they ask you to do reverse parking in the basic skill test and a road test. In the road test, after every turn, the examiner asked me "What did the sign say ?". He tested me to see if I read the speed limit signs. On W Northern Pkwy (2:04 in the video), the examiner asked me to change a lane to the right and then again back to the leftmost lane. Towards the end, after we return to the MVA, I was asked to park the car to the left in between two cars and that concludes the test. After successfully parking, the examiner said "You did fine and you passed" :-). All the best.
Hey, good to see your comment. I have a test at this location i am just freaking out because there is alot of curb space (white lines) between the cone while backing up in the closed course and while practicing we don’t have that much distance at any regular parking. Any tips for that? Also could you please tell after finishing the road test where did they ask you to park the car once back to mva and did it count in the test too? Did they ask to reverse park or forward park? 😢
@@makeupbyhunaina Sorry for not getting back to you sooner. Yes, there is a lot of curb space while backing up. I found a parking space with a similar setting to the MVA and practiced reverse parking a lot of times until I was perfect. You'll need to find a reference while sitting in the car and figure out when to turn right. During the test, I turned right once I was able to see the two rear cones of the three cones through the rear right window. While turning right slowly, I also kept checking the side view mirrors to see if I am aligned well with the cones before backing up. While practicing, I did this by reverse parking next to a car assuming a lot of curb space. At the end of the road test, the examiner asked to forward park to the left in between two cars. It was a part of the test. I was asked to park in between those yellow parking stones which can be seen at the left-bottom of the video at @0:03.
@@bullet-ui7kz Thank you so much for your reply. Unfortunately i didn’t pass. It was all well until we reached Hayvard Ave and had to make a left turn, i stopped let the cars waiting go, yielded and then went ahead but the instructor started shouting on top of his lungs at me stoppp stoppp and yelling at me, he made me stop on the side of road with a sign DO NO STOP and took over the driving seat. He said i should have waited for the cars coming from far behind to pass too! Which were clearly so far behind! But i moved in safely, riestertown road’s traffic never seizes. It was so traumatic for me i am shaking thinking about my retake. He was the rudest instructor ever!! I could hardly understand his thick accent and his english was poor, i wish to never see that man again!
Really nice video! I passed the test yesterday and examiner was so nice! I took the second route shown in the video and they were exactly the same. Thanks for sharing this video
This was my test route! Honestly this is the easiest location in MD in my opinion the hardest part was the 2 point turn. The instructor will also cut the driving in half due to traffic.
Hello, i’m going to take my in about 2 weeks. how was your two point turn? are the anal about putting hand on back of chair when reversing 😩 because I never do 😭
my car has a back camera so that really helped. I didn't have to take my hand off the steering wheel. my two point turn overall was good. the course is really tight driving around. i signaled during every turn. know your street sign i.e speed limit, pedestrian cross signs, the instructor will ask. any more questions
I'm a little uneasy about the 2 point turn. I went pass the MVA today and saw the closed course. Is it a tight space to do the turn ? It looks like it...
@progamer97x thank you, last week I failed when I was going to make road test, bc I didn't see the first stop almost to get to second stop when you turn right roger. The examiner asked some questions during the road test??. My new try is August 20 ,2024 in this location, I am kinda nervous, I don't want to fail again
I just took my driver's test at Reisterstown and passed but it was pretty easy. Unfortunately, this wasn't the routed I took. I was told to go left when leaving out the MVA lot instead of right. Also, I went pass Rogers Train Metro.
guys i took the test today and it’s completely different now. instead of turning right on w rogers ave toy turn left !!! and then at some point you make right but it’s a slight right so don’t be confused. i cant remember the rest but it’s way easier than this.
I would not suggest coming here. They are really petty down here and the guy even went to sleep doing my test. Save your time and go to Essex or somewhere else. Really petty instructors down here and every one told me beforehand not to take my test down here.
@@kimc3578 Thank you! For this location make sure to follow the arrows on the road at the MVA because it's an auto fail if you go in the wrong lane and be aware of all stop signs there as well. For parking, all I had to do was the 2-point reverse parking on the closed course in under 3 minutes then after that I went on the road. And for the road test make sure to pay attention to the traffic signs because the examiner will ask you about them. 🙂
Yeah, it's convenient if you live in the city. The route is pretty straightforward. Make sure you know the speed limit and pay attention to the signs during the test. Good luck.
I have a question about the Reisterstown Rd mva location for the reverse turnabout how far should I position the car from the cones to prevent from hitting the cones when backing in
ASMR Whisperer I have take my test 3 times I keep failing the parking. which is really make me upset. I do perfect when I practice the parking. any suggestions? it's will helped. thank you.
My test instructor told me to keep both hands on the steering wheel at all times including while performing the initial two point turn reverse. While I was learning I would put my right hand on the back of the passenger seat and look back to reverse but he told me not to do that. Not sure if that's the issue for you.
@@chelseaoguike7570 yea make sure you watch all of them because not even 5 seconds on the road she started asking me, I know I got the first one wrong but I answered quick so I think she just went with it
im taking my test next month for that stop sign, was it like placed so it's not really in view? i ask cause i've watched this twice and i just now caught it.
What did you have to do for the closed test? And which location did you go to? I’m debating if I want to do this one or elkton. Whichever one is easier.
The only thing I had to do was reverse park for the close course.Make sure you follow the arrow and make a complete stop at the stop sign.Once you pass the close course then you go on to the road test.The road test is quick and easy it's like going in a circle no way anyone should fail the road test at the Baltimore location very easy and simple
@bryansimo1690 yes this was same route I took.Turning on Roger's Ave the speed limit is 25.Once you turn on Nothern Pkwy the speed limit is 35.And when you turn on Reisterstown the speed limit is 30

I don't know the exact answer. I would assume about 2 feet. Ask your instructor before taking that portion of the test.
This was the route for my test.
Thanks for the confirmation.
ASMR Whisperer I have take my test 3 times I keep failing the parking. which is really make me upset. I do perfect when I practice the parking. any suggestions? it's will helped. thank you.
Reverse parking in the designated test area - road test then park in the reserved spots for test takers.Good luck.

Can anyway, that has taken the test at this location, give me advice on the two point turn ?
Why they don't have a full video? I have mine this Wednesday.
Because you are not allowed to film the closed course. However, this is pretty much it. czcams.com/video/NM70qI6xRcI/video.html

Do they ask you to park when you return..this video is definitely helpful
Yes they do
Do you do the reverse parking before or after the test or you just drive the course shown
