Its required on everything over 125cc as of Jan 1st 2016.

Didn't know that. Every day's a school day.

Bloop - yes. 43 years old (doesn’t even need tax or MoT any more).

I remember that test well:


"It's OK if you miss all the cones, I can only deduct one point, otherwise it's one point per cone you touch"


Or the car one:


"Please parallel park in the space,
The one between the truck and the end?
No sir, the one between the two pick-ups.
Seriously, you could fit a Sem-I in that (I had a golf), I guess most people don't fail this bit.
You'd be surprised" sir"


Followed by out through the gate, right, left follow through the housing estate (20mph), right, left and back at the beginning.

yes, exactly that on both tests.

I’m not sure standards of riding or driving were particularly different from the UK as a result (I see at least as much daft stuff going on here) - even though we have enormously more difficult testing regimes.
