We've all told lies to pass our tests.

If you made that pulling out mistake during your test you are likely to
have failed.

It wasn't me that made the mistake - I stopped and avoided the fool. He
would have failed his test for indicating wrongly.



Your examiner would have applied the brakes and failed you immediately.
They do that when you are doing something dangerous.

I know someone it happened to, she failed to see someone while reversing.

Driving tests require you to obey stupid rules, for example the speed
limit.

It doesn't prevent terminally stupid people like you from getting
licences either.

You know what's really terminally stupid? People who have permacators. Indicators that stay on all the time. They seem to think they're side lights. We're going the way of the yanks, they actually have red ones at the back and orange at the front! Tell you what, why don't we just choose our own colours for each light according to fashion? That's what BMW seem to be doing. There's a reason for different colours....
