FailedOn my third driving test, I turned right out of the test centre, reached a pedestrian crossing, attempted to run over a little old lady, was prevented from doing so by the examiner grabbing the wheel, then proceeded straight back to the test centre.
The drive home was very, very quiet. I've never felt such a complete failure.
What have you failed at?

Failure to finish CBTMy wifes boss in a law firm decides he wants to recapture his youth and get the 125cc bike of his dreams - which was back in the 1970's. He got this bike and drooled over it, until he decides to take 3 weeks off to do his CBT and learn to ride it.
Many many celebrations were had in his abscence, and there were various plans to ring his mobile etc to see if he fell off.
Well, day 2 held all the surprises. During the first round of "kevin holiday" cakes, they received a call.
"Kevin cannot come back into work for 6 weeks as he has failed his CBT"
not usual for this to be required, they investigated further.
"Kevin failed to gain enough speed on a speed bump on the training ground area and fell off slow-motion style - sideways. The bike fell on his leg and broke it in 4 places requiring full suspension of legs, in hospital, for 6 weeks"
Not only did he fail, he failed to gain 5 mph and failed to reappear at work for a full 6 months in total as no-one wanted him back.
