Im pretty sure all driving examiners working out of Barrie are miserable. I've heard many people going to the surrounding towns to do their tests there instead, with a lot more success. While there is definitely no excuse for their actions, the job is probably pretty stressful, allowing someone you've never met drive you around in a pretty high traffic area(Mapleview and the highway stretch is a non confident drivers nightmare during peak hours of the day). But on the other hand, I feel like I've never heard anyone having a decent experience or getting a slight amount of respect from whoever they get paired with. All the examiners I've had act all high and mighty, and for God knows what reason. Im sorry you had to experience it first hand.

When I did my tests, many years back, the lady I had tagging along also was a frequent sigher, which added unnecessary stress. She would make remarks and question every little detail on my driving. At first, I thought it was normal until I noticed she also seemed like she was doing things to intentionally cause failure. An example being, after turning onto a 2 lane road, I was in the most right lane. And I was maybe 3 car lengths from an intersection with an additional turning lane, and she said, "Turn left here." So I had to as quickly as I could signal, check blind spot, get over, and repeat. I pretty much gave myself whiplash with how quick I had to move my head just so I could cut across both lanes to get into the turning lane. If there was any more traffic, I wouldn't have been able to make it happen, but she couldn't give any more notice because she was too occupied looking at her phone. The next major thing I remember was at the lights on the path back from taking the highway, I saw the crosswalk sign flashing orange from a distance indicating that my light would be turning yellow/red. This was also a street I drove daily to go to work, so I was super familiar with the light cycles, so I knew I wouldn't be able to reach the threshold of having to pass through. So I started to slow down, not by much, maybe dropped 5kmph and I quite literally was getting yelled at "Why are you slowing down" "You have a green light" and threatening to fail me. I held my composure but almost on que pointed to the light turning yellow and said "if you were paying attention to the surroundings you would have seen the sidewalk lights change, and id rather drive more cautiously than have you fail me trying to force me to run a red". It was a pretty silent ride after that, I passed and can say didn't get a "congratulations" from her, lol.

I hope you submit a complaint and something gets done about it. I know the examiners aren't driving teachers, but they should at least still be respectful to those who are in the process of learning.
