Failure

So I failed my driving theory test the other day, test and failing seem to go hand in hand with me.

anyway as you may know, I tend to get pissed off when things don't go right and I end up blaming the world and not me. well this is no different so lets begin

<rant>

fucking driving theory tests what do they even prove that you can remember what the sign of a cattle grid is? I mean they give you 35 random questions and if you don't get 30 right it means you're an unfit driver? how did they work that one out, now I completely understand the point in a practical driving test, a instructor can see that you can actually drive and vaguely follow the formalities of the road. I'm led to believe that the driving test takes an hour, well fuck if that's not long enough make it 2 hours surely it's better to have it longer than shorter and hope that some spotty teenager who has memorized the fricking book by hand and will throw out all the information as soon as they pass.

ok fine so you get 6 questions wrong, now surely it'd be better as a percentage, I don't know I mean I got 29 questions right and I can drive relatively safely (despite nearly killing us today,going through a closed junction crossroads at 30mph isn't a great idea especially when you have to give way). 29 fucking questions makes me unfit to drive the road, I mean what does knowing one more question really say. is it really that much better than having 29? fuck that guy knows why putting stabilizers on a caravan is a good thing (I had 2 freaking questions on caravans) whereas that other guy doesn't, surely the first guy is the better driver? wrong!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

</rant>

 

oh well theres nothing i can do.  I'll be back on the 7th sept to retake it and pass it this time.....  i shall know everything. i will be a walking highway code.

 

onwards with life.

You are right, it's nonsense. I think practical tests are nonsense as well, I was no better a driver taking my third test than I was taking my first. It should be up to your instructor to say when you are good enough to drive, not some examiner who drives with you for 40 minutes.

Well they've got to put the barrier somewhere. I mean what's the dude who got 28 questions right going to say when he needs 29 to pass?

Driving means responsibility! The road is the test and you have to take or...you have to take it!!!
