Funny, if a little worrying. Don't forget that the worlds fastest failure of the driving test is still held by a Mr. Thomson of Lanarkshire.
In 1981 he managed to fail the test before the examiner had even got into the car, he arrived outside the test center and sounded his horn to summon the examiner, who strode out to the vehicle, said it was illegal to sound your horn whilst stationary, that Mr. Thomson had failed and strode back in again ;D
Genius of this sort cannot be taught ;D ;D ;D

I remember reading about a lady in California who failed the test in 1 second. She mixed up the clutch and the accelerator and shot backwards through the wall of the test center ;D

This sounds a bit right. I've seen my share of bad drivers. I'm not perfect but I've seen some pretty dangerous stuff. The other day I almost got hit after a stupid woman pulled into a turning lane and decided to go streight through. The lesson is, take the bus. (BTW, This was actually the second time this has happened to me).

if you were to show this to my instructor she would instantly point me out for being like that:)
as far as i am concerned,, pedestrians are the soft damagable ones, they should be the ones to look out more carefully, and hey if they dont then i have done the world a favor getting rid of a blind idiot ::)

I'm happy to say that I got only one or two points wrong on both my written and practical driving tests ;)

One point on the written over a stupid question...

in driving class they told us that lights were to be on 1/2 hour before dusk, and 1/2 hour after dawn...

the REAL answer that they were looking for was 1 hour....:-(
