Today, I took my driver's test. I did everything flawlessly, but my examiner kept all but pissing his pants throughout. He yelled, "ARE YOU TRYING TO GET US KILLED?!" when I drove past a traffic light just as it was about to turn red. The road was almost empty. He failed me on the spot. FML

Today, I took my driving test. I was nervous, but I thought I followed the rules of the road pretty well. My tester ended up failing me for "backing out too slowly". FML

Today, I took my driving test. I was really nervous, but I thought I did pretty well in the end. That is until I parked the car and looked to the examiner. He was visibly shaken. He said I'd passed, quickly filled in the paperwork and left. On the downside, my car still smells of his shart. 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

Today, I drove 45 minutes to take my full driver's test. At the end of the test, the instructor told me I'd done everything perfectly, but had failed before I left the parking lot. I didn't see the "one way" sign at the entrance. FML

Today, I failed my driving test. The examiner insisted I that didn't check a junction before pulling out. I did, he just didn't notice because he was too busy staring at my chest. FML

Today, I took my driver's test. The woman administering it wouldn't even look at me, so trying to be friendly I said the first thing I could think of, "It must be scary getting in the car with someone you don't know!" She failed me for "excessive chatting." FML

Today, I took my driving test. As I was about to turn at a green light, a car sped toward us from the other direction, running a red light. My instructor failed me because I stopped to avoid getting rammed. Apparently I should have kept going, because it was my right of way. FML

Today, I passed my driver's test. As I was driving home, I was rear-ended. Rear-ended by the examiner that'd passed me. 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

For the test, you need to play it overly safe. Then, once you're granted a license, drive like every other crazy ******.

Your and his perception of flawless driving clearly differ. I trust his judgement more.

Generally speaking lights turn yellow before red. You aren't supposed to start going through a light when it is yellow. I'm guessing that's why they failed you.

Your definition of flawless is completely WRONG!!!!! You failed because you deserved to fail! You should not be allowed on the road until you understand that you cannot do whatever you damned well please behind the wheel because you think you know it all! Note to jeragnom - You missed a stop sign and deserved to be failed on the spot. Stopping ahead of a stop sign ( your 1/2 a feet was probably three feet ) is not how it is done - you too deserved to fail - both of you stay the F off the road until you grow up and learn the rules!

My driving instructor went in and asked what the route was for the test. We drove that route probably 200,000 times till the van could almost drive it without me! lol When I took the test the first time - he took me downtown, through a construction zone. The traffic for your lane wasn't in front of you (due to the construction), but I didn't realize that. So, the light in front of me turned green, the truck in front of me went, I went and the next words were "you just failed. Go back to the station."

OP, you have a real self-esteem issue here; namely, you don't realize your head is up your ass. Get that sorted out before you get back on the road. Your life - and others' - may depend on it.

you deserved it. if you actually follow the rules you'd know that if its yellow you need to slow down and if at all possible stop. it doesn't matter if it was "almost empty" i know this and i don't even have my licence.

Ydi, op. Pretty sure you don't live in a grand theft auto game, which is the only place antics like that belong. Most of the 20 something drivers I see act like they are invincible, and that isn't true. I hope next time you realize that shit like that gets people killed.

Trying to beat a red light when you should be stopping isn't flawless driving. YDI.

I'm sorry he was freaking out like that, but about the immediate fail, that's normal. Being that close to a red light is actually an automatic fail. I've heard about that happening to my friends and it sucks, but just retake it. You'll most likely get a different teacher.

I got the same one when I went to take it the 2nd time. He greeted me with "So, you came back." I replied with a very loud "Yes I'm ready to tackle the construction zone on my driver's test again!"
