# I just failed my driving test
but at least I failed in style! Drove into a parked car
(I helped save b3ta! Milkman Dan, Tue 22 May 2007, 15:39, archived)
# Ah!
Taking up lessons again for the first time in years: failed three times so far!

# this was fail number 2
much more exciting than fail number 1 where I merely stalled

# I stopped at a green light on my second go due to nerves
After a while they got used to seeing me, and I became much more comfortable driving with an examiner in the car

# I went through a 3-way (i.e. six roads) intersection
on a red light.

The examiner screamed. I hadn't noticed at all.

I still worry that I passed the second one.

# So what happened exactly?
Just not see it or what?
(Mrs Trellis GIN, Tue 22 May 2007, 15:46, archived)
# move away up a hill
revved through the roof by mistake and tore off before I could get the lock on. A horrific mistake and I'm surprised he let me carry on afterwards
(I helped save b3ta! Milkman Dan, Tue 22 May 2007, 15:46, archived)
# Likewise!
Never managed to do anything that spectacular, just little things. I put a curse on the woman who failed me the second two times.

# 6 points within the first tweo years of driving
not a ban, so not a huge insurance nightmare
but fucking shit anyway

# I didn't know about that
Shit, as you say

# oh fuck!
commiserations dear boy

much damage? you ok?
(I helped save b3ta! mictoboy shitting in your cunt since, Tue 22 May 2007, 15:40, archived)
# not much damage at all
because the test dude used to other controls to stop me walloping it properly

You know you've failed when the instructor shouts 'Jesus Fuck! That was close!'
(I helped save b3ta! Milkman Dan, Tue 22 May 2007, 15:42, archived)
# hahaha
oh, bugger
if it's any consolation, on my first test, something similar happened to me too.
put me off driving for 10 years

# Tip top.

# you know how people say
'I knew I'd failed, so I drove really well after that' Well once we'd got going again, I still drove like an erratic blind man with parkinsons

# Have you ever taken a driving test?
They're probably the most stressful test I've ever had to do

How many times has everybody taken the test?
