It can't be harder than the South African driver's test. Passing first time here is something to boast about (I passed first time:) ).
 
This thread reminds me of my Mum's friend- she gets her license, drives, causes an accident/speeds, gets her license off her, goes for the license test, repeat. :rolleyes: I plan on starting to revise for my Driving Test (buying the Learner's handbook) 6 months before I do the test.
 
That was hilarious. I especially like the woman who was so clueless she had to have somebody else park the car for her.

To me it looked like the guy just got annoyed at waiting and told her he'd park the damn car for her just to speed things along.


If the woman hasn't passed her theory by now, she should be exempt from even trying the practical. She's obviously not fit to be behind the wheel.
 
So at her rate she is taking the test about once every other day. That's insane!

It is. My test was a multiple choice test, thirty questions, each with 2-4 possible answers, with one or more correct answers, and you were allowed to have two or three errors. Note that if you ticked the wrong answer, that was two errors: One for not ticking the right answer, one for ticking the wrong one.

The questions were taken from a set of about 1000 possible questions. And companies sell sets of test sheets, where all 1000 possible questions are turned into 30 or so real test sheets, with the correct answers so you can check whether you would have passed. You are not supposed to do the real paid for test unless you have worked through a set of test sheets with very few failures.

Let's say you have no chance at all to pass this by using the "million monkeys" method and repeating the test again and again. You have to actually learn the right answers. Maybe nobody told her that.

BTW Since she does that test every day, could someone update the thread title?
