STAY AWAY FROM HIENZ... The last thing anyone wants on a drive test is surprises...Here is a list of surprises I had, because I went with hienz

Surprise number 1 - On the test day morning I was waiting at vicroads for my 2 nerve cooling lessons. And guess what..I got a text from the instructor saying his car is broken down and he will be a bit late. He was so late I could get only a 15 min lesson before the test. not really a nerve cooling experience..

Surprise number 2 - Even though I took 4 lessons(only 4, because I was converting an overseas licence) with the instructor, he never got a chance to tell me that the testing officer will ask to show car's controls at the beginning of the test. A small thing, but a surprise enough to make one nervous.

Surprise number 3 - Pullover the car after stage 1. The instructor never told me about it. I was shocked and tensed when the testing officer told me to pullover during the test.

Overall it looks to me like hienz wants clients to fail so they take up more lessons and thus hienz can increase their profit.
Plus the attitude of the instructor was not very helpful in increasing one's confidence. Second time, I went with another reputed driving school and passed the test.
