Default Failed my driving exam.

Yeah well I guess I kinda deserved my failure. I forgot to give priority while turning at a traffic light and it turns out the guy I almost hit was a quadriplegic in an electric wheelchair.

Any of you guys failed harder than I did?

I haven't tried yet, I'm only at my 4th lesson. But how haven't you noticed that man in the wheelchair?

Yeah uhm was seriously perfect for about 98% of the test... got to the end and the instructor told me to pull over where we started which was about 50 yards away. Inconveniently placed was a terrible stop sign that I had absolutely no clue was there, it was such a bad stop sign that I didn't know I ran it until the instructor told me I ran one. Ran it, traffic violation, auto-fail.

I'm glad I didn't have to do the driving portion - just a piss easy test on a computer.

I never took an actual driving test. I took a class and then drove with an instructor a few times and had no problems. Took a small quiz before they gave me my liscence and got a 100%. Paid the fee to get my license and there you go.

The first time I took the test, I failed because I was polite and let someone go ahead first at an intersection even though I had right-of-way. Weak.

I should have failed mine for not looking "right left then right again", but the instructor decided not to fail me. Oh, and I blew the parallel parking because the instructors car was a cavalier and the car I tested in was a jeep grand cherokee laredo.....

We don't go onto actual roads for our road test...we have a pre-set course that we practice on in drivers ed and during the test you parallel park, do a 3-point turn, drive forwards and back in a straight line, and park...a few stop signs and tricks and you have to parallel park and do the 3-point turn in a certain amount of time but that's it. Written portion is done in drivers ed and they send all your information to the DMV.
Got a 92% on the written. Parallel parked in 23 seconds. Got a perfect score on the driving portion. My fail? Didn't get it until I was 17...

I did notice him but I thought his light was red since there was a car beside him and the car just stayed there.

I'll one-up you and say I didn't get mine until I was 18. That's why I didn't have to take a driving test or anything.

I passed first try because I don't suck at driving. Scored a 75% on the written portion though.

Man, you are so lucky. Driving tests are a huge hassle, I put mine off for years before finally getting to it.

I got mine in 2 tries.

First time I failed because I didn't understand what my instructor wanted me to do. He wanted me to do a 3-point turn but worded it really oddly. Parallel parking I did okay though.

Second time I ALMOST failed parallel parking because I forgot to signal and look out for traffic. Three times. I was 1 or 2 points away from failing by the end. >:/

I didn't have a written portion...

Wow. You guys did fail pretty hard.

I knocked over a cone while parallel parking in the "driving skills test" but still passed it.
I stopped on the railroad tracks when a driver in front of me cut me off before a red light.
I still passed the test overall on my first try.

My fail: I didn't get my license until after I graduated high school .

I didnt fail, and my only issue in the driving test was the parallel parking where my instructor made me park in a spot that could barely fit the car itself in it. He was in a pissy mood that day though. lol. The written test wasnt hard, but it was the last day of school, very hot, and I was tired, so I got a C on it.

My driving partner sucked though. He got yelled at so much. Stopping at green lights nearly getting us hit from the rear, pulling out without looking. He was a mess. I was scared being in the car with him. XD

This.

Plus one of the people in my driving group was terrible, so it made me look awesome at driving. Although I did almost hit an old person with a walker. Made a left turn, and there he is with an oxygen tank and everything! The teacher even gave me the option to either hit him or wait.

I fail harder.
I'm 18, out of high school, and I still don't have it.

Supposedly, I'll get it before college starts in a month.
