几年前,有人在网上求助。他想打电话预定路考时间,却对自己的英语没有信心,希望有人帮个忙,把整个电话预定流程说一下。我连着看了好些天,热心人很多,却没有人真的提供这个流程。我心血来潮,自己打了好几次电话,将整个流程听写出来,然后又翻译成中文,搞了个双语版的电话路考排期系统操作流程。这些年来,再没有见过类似的求助,这也说明现在的新移民对英语的信心要比前些年的高。想想这也算是我们移民之路的一部分,我也把它放在自己的博客里留作纪念,毕竟也花了点时间将其整理出来嘛。一晃五年了!!!
自己动手,丰衣足食 -- -- 电话路考排期系统操作流程
第一步:拨此电话号码416-325-8580
第二步:你会听到下面三句话:
* “你已接通交通部自动排期服务系统。”( 法语)
* “要求音频电话服务用英语的话,请按1。 ” (法语)
* “否则,请别挂电话。”
第三步:按下1之后你会听到的话如下:
* 如果希望该辅助系统用正常语速对你说话,请按1,如果希望用慢一点的语速,请按2。
* 请注意:该系统提供的最早日期与接线员提供的最早日期是一样的。在此过程中任何时候如果需要接线员的帮助,请在工作时间内再打此电话并按0。
* 排期、确认或取消路考或者只是询问最早的日期,请按1。
* 如果你是老年人,要排期的话,请按2。
* 要求接线员帮助的话,请在工作时间内打此电话并按0。
* 要求了解工作时间的话,请按0。
* 如果你已准备好你的安省驾照和笔的话,请按1,否则的话,请按2。
第四步:如果按2的话会听到下面一句话:
* 请准备好你的安省驾照和笔之后再打此电话,再见,并感谢你致电交通部。
如果按1的话会听到下面一句话:
* 如果你是要预定日期的话,请准备好你的信用卡。
* 请在你的电话上按与你驾照的第一字母相符的数字。输入Q,请按1。输入Z,请按0。
* (比如按2) 你输入的字母可能使A,B,或C。请按1输入A,2输入B,或者3输入C。* 请输入字母后面的数字。
* 你所输入的安省驾照号码是:A0000-00000-00000,如果正确,请按1。否则,请按2。
* 如果遇到困难,你可以在上午9点至下午5点按0获得接线员的帮助。请注意:该系统提供的最早日期与接线员提供的最早日期是一样的。
* 请别挂电话。
第五步:以选择MORNINGSIDE为例:
* 要听最早路考日期,请按1。要预定路考日期,请按2。要确认路考,请按3。要取消路考,请按4。
* 要选择城市,你应该输入你想查询城市的头三个字母。
* 请输入此城市的第一个字母。你输入的字母可能是T,U,或V。请按1输入T,2输入U,或者3输入V。
* 请输入此城市的第二个字母。你输入的字母可能是M,N,或O。请按1输入M,2输入N,或者3输入O。
* 请输入此城市的第三个字母。你输入的字母可能是P,R,或S。请按1输入P,2输入R,或者3输入S。
* 你输入的该城市的头三个字母是T,O, R。如果正确,请按1。否则,请按2重新输入。
* 要选择METRO EAST,请按1;选MORNINGSIDE请按2;选ETOBICOKE请按3;想选其它城市查询的话,请按9。
第六步:决定是否选择路考
* 你选择了MORNINGSIDE驾照考试中心。如果正确,请按1。否则,请安2重新输入。
MORNINGSIDE考试中心的最早日期是2002年10月23日。要预定在此中心路考,请按1。要查询不同的考试中心,请按2。要结束通话,请按3。
注:我在此按3结束了通话。因为我已经拿到了G照,所以不好意思再选择预定考期了。我记得我原来选择预定之后,电话里会说出考试中心的地址和路考的时间,还会告诉你付款方式,并要求你带着驾照提前一个小时到。我所知道的就这些,希望对大家有所帮助。

- payment method
- my driver’s license
- to be there an hour ahead of time
That’s what I know about the automated booking system process, hope it will be of some help.
