How does the New York road test scoring work, and what constitutes an automatic failure?

1. The test is simply pass/fail, with no deductions recorded for individual errors
2. Points are deducted for errors; exceeding the maximum deduction limit results in failure, and certain critical errors result in automatic failure
3. The test is scored on a curve against other applicants rather than documented errors
4. Only the examiner's overall impression determines the result, without scoring criteria
