So, my lady failed her driving test...

Yup, she failed. I think it was a combo of her choking and the DMV tester being a bitch. My lady was real nervous going into the test. We had practiced normal driving and even freeway driving. We praticed parking, 3-point turns, and backing up in a straight line.

But, on the day when it counted, she blew it.

The instructor told her to back up parallel to the curb for a few hundred feet. Apparently she didn't stay parallel with the curb and went slightly into the main lane of the road. Even though it was just a small 25mph road by a park, the DMV ***** labeled it as a "dangerous manuver," an immediate disqualification. But to top it off, she didn't even tell her that she failed until they returned to the DMV. Where she rubbed it in my girls face by telling her that "she could have asked to do it over!"

F****ing b**ch, sorry I'm just pissed because now my lady's confidence is shot and now I have to try and build it up before the next test on the 23rd.
And, I'm scared that even if we pratice our asses off, she could still fail for a minor infraction, that's bearing left up to the DMV tester's to judge at his/her discretion.

california dmv testers are bitches. i watched my tester count my "mistakes" up to 14...and kept looking for another one (most we can miss is 15) but she gave up and then lectured me about dying in my car if i didn't drive it correctly. she was the "infamous" mean lady from the one here on florin road in sacramento.

GL on her next test. keep practicing

I live in new Hampshire. When i had my test the guy let me listen to the radio. he knew i was nervous and when i screwed up backing up, he said kid i didn't see that try it again. I woudl lik eto say i am a great driver but choked because of nerves. Even to this day i think i back into 99% of my spots. i have heard of so many people who get screwed with aweful DMV people. I feel bad because my guy wasn;t really paying attentino he was singing to I think an old limp bizkit song. Thumbs up to NH DMV people


PS Sorry about the cali DMV B**ches

key to passing a drivers test is to over exagerate all the stuff your suppose to do..
Its sad really..
Than when you actually learn to drive a car, "really drive a car" you realize some of the stuff they want you to do isnt actually the best way of doing it

Tell your girlfriend to imagine herself as one of her grandparents, being as cautious as possible, and pretend she is in serious traffic, looking at imaginery cars.

That's a very false statement right there. Besides that, I hope your girlfriend passes the test next time. I'm sure she just needs to calm down and remember that it's only a simple test. Wish her luck.

when i took my driving test, the dmv told me over 75% of ppl fail their driving exams on the first time. my advice, learn how to drive under different situations (i dont like nervous drivers on the road doing crazy things), and when you take the actual driving exam, be a lil obvious on exhibiting your driving skills. there are reasons why those dmv ppl are a lil annoying, for one, they probably dont trust your skills and youre putting their lives at risk.

Im not sure how i passed my driving test. Like i was 90% sure i failed cause i did ****in terrible (i didnt get alot of practice in, my parents just got new cars), then sure enough "well you got an 84%" then they gave me this piece of plastic with my name and picture on it and now i can legally terrorize society. Maaaaaan wtf were they thinking... i should not have been allowed to drive yet. I almost got into so many accidents. I was a 6000lb random deadly incompetent weapon in my parents expedition. Well anyway i never did get into any accidents (ive had my license 6 years now) so whatever maybe gettin the **** scared outta me when i definitely shouldnt have had a license at first was a good thing.

IMO i think if you fail the first time you shouldn't be on the road AT ALL and you are obviously pushing for yous L's way too early. everything that is done on the test are key fundamentals of driving safely without nearly causing an accident. and i don't care how nervous you are about the test, what would you do if someone was about to hit you? just freak out and close your eyes?
if you can't drive, stay off the road.

did she have her permit first? cause that would help out alot. my sister practiced driving for a year before she turned 16 so she could get it. and she got it, and then wrecked her car. but have her practice for as long as she needs to get comfy behind the wheel. sounds like a newb to a car to me. good luck

that sux that she failed though. if it wouldve been me i'd have left the car in drive when i turned the car off so that the b**ch couldnt start the car untill 45 minutes later when she realizes its no big deal just that the cars not in park or neutral

Thanks for the well wishes.
Hopefully she'll get a dude next time. She's pretty hot and last night she told me that she would even be willing to show a little skin if necessary. Now I'm thinking of becoming a DMV tester...
Anyway, before she took her test we watched the only guy tester pass this old lady that could barely see over ther dash.
And I see all kinds of people that can barley drive; I live in near Rowland Heights, CA.. All you SOCAL people should know what I'm talking about.

Actually, it takes about 20 minutes. And yes she is new to a car, she has been practicing for about 4 months. The stupid thing is I took her out yesterday and she practiced backing up along the curb and was doing it fine. I wasn't there in the car, during the test, so maybe she did it correctly and the DMV lady is just a bitch.

Anwyay,

I don't think I have ever heard anyone refer to their mom or grandma as "their lady."
Maybe thats how things work in SD, not here in Cali.
