Today, as I was taking the driver's test to get my license, I backed into a car. It belonged to the instructor sitting in my passenger seat. FML

Today, I took my road test. I'd never had driver's training and my mom taught me how to drive. I failed the test so badly, and when I got home my mom admitted to having taught me how to drive completely wrong because she didn't want me to get my license as she thinks I'm too young. I'm 18. FML

Today, I hit a parked car. It happened to be my driving instructor's car. While he was instructing me, sitting in the passenger seat. I don't think I'll pass. FML

Licence to drive

Today, after failing my learner's licence twice in the previous weeks, I finally passed. As I got home, I went for a drive with my dad. I smashed my mum's car into an old lady's fence and ended up in her backyard. FML

Cough up

Today, I didn't get my driver's license, even though I didn't make any mistakes because my examiner said it was only my first time taking the exam, so it wouldn't matter if I failed. Now I have to pay another €240 for a second exam. FML

Today, I passed my driver's test. My instructor took the learner signs off his car and let me drive back to my place. I guess he didn't bet on me crashing the car just a few blocks from the test center. FML

Today, I went to take my driver's test, and I did almost everything perfectly. The last thing was to back into a driveway. As I went to put my hand on the passenger seat to look over my shoulder, I got so nervous that I hit my instructor in the face. FML

Just because he is your father, it does not mean he is going to automatically pass you. Clearly, you are not a great driver yet. lol.

It seems that either your dad is a bad teacher or you are a bad student! :P

Hey if your dad also happened to be the instructor, then he was in the best position to know if you were ready. Remember, dad loves you and wants to make sure you know what you are doing before he lets you put yourself in a dangerous situation. Talk to him and find out what you need to practice. Main thing - Pay attention to whats going on around you while driving. No texting!

Your dad being the instructor doesn't guarantee you get a free pass. If you thought it would, I hate you.

Your dad was the instructor? I feel for you.

What do you expect? Your father to pass you automatically just because you are his daughter? Yea , because that is sooo much more important then actually being a safe driver.

Okay, but what if we happened to assimilate into an English-speaking country other than the United States? I'm a 2nd-generation Canadian. The OP is from Germany anyway, and I'm sure Brit English makes more sense there.
