Leicester learner driver fails theory test 92 times

[metalmonkey]

Is this guy thick or just a douche bag? Given that the standard of driving is very poor these days, shouldn't there be a limit on my how many times you get to attempt to take a test.

If this guy ever passed, I'm sure it will be a numbers game rather than skills. The questions has to be asked, why should these people be allowed to carry on one thing is for sure they won't make safe drivers:smt073:smt073

My son has learning difficulties and struggles to read. He passed his theory on the 3rd attempt. Although it took us a month of making him practice on the computer every night.

I dread to think what will happen when they remove published questions this year.

There's probably an argument there to say that after the 20th failure they should give you a certificate that prohibits you using anything more powerful than a food blender...

Yes but there are those who pass and still shouldn't even be allowed a blender!

surely after that many attempts he has seen ALL the questions they could possibly have anyway.

Not sure of the odds, but surely if you just answer randomly for that many tests you should pass by then....

How many attempts for the actual test then? If the theory is anything to go by, we should be safe from him on the road for a few years yet.

:shock: That's about £2800 in test fees...good grief.

Yup, that's the first year's insurance stuffed then

Wonder if he can feed and dress himself

LOL, not as well as he used to - his wallet is 3 grand lighter!

Well if he can't pass the theory, he's not likely to pass the driving part of the test is he, muppet.
