<p>Does anyone have any funny stories about stuff that happened on their road test? I just took mine today, and I failed in under 10 seconds. I was lined up directly behind 2 other cars that were at the end of a block, and when the observer (or whatever they're called) told me to "pull out when I was ready," and as I was pulling out, I drove right by a STOP sign that was at the end of the block. At first I was really ****ed off, but then I calmed down and realized that it actually was kind of funny.</p>
<p>I came at an intersection between a small street and a large one (I was initially on the small one). You're allowed to make a right turn on red, but everyone has told me not to, because it makes it seem like you're 'rushed' if you do. So, I was at the intersection and the light was green. I was about to turn, but the car in front of me went incredibly slow, so before I could turn, the light turned yellow, so I stopped until it was completely red. Unfortunately I was already a few feet in front of the stop line on the ground, but fortunately I was not interferring with traffic. I knew I was screwed, but I guess it didn't matter much, since I got my lisence that day anyway!!</p>
<p>I destroyed a small tree right next to the MVA building at the end of my road test by running onto the sidewalk and knocking it down.</p>
<p>Fortunately, my testing person had already signed the paper saying that I passed, and I still got my license.</p>
<p>haha. well i passed my tests with no problems. but i was in the car when another student was driving and he wasn't slowing down when the light turned yellow so the teacher yelled "stop" and he hit the brakes 10 ft from the intersection so we ended up skidding to the exact middle of the interesection. at first it was pretty scary because any passing truck would have slammed us. but it was pretty funny looking at the faces of the other drivers.</p>
<p>Years ago I failed my drug test because the stupid examiner said I ran a red light which I did not (The damn thing was green when I was waiting to turn left, then turned yellow then red when I was halfway through the intersection) and cutting someone off (which I did) That being said and remembering how I use to drive when I was 16 (drag racing through crowded city streets, piling as many people into the van as we could, driving drunk a lot) I think they should raise the drivng age to 18.</p>

<p>umm you mean your driving test right?</p>
<p>Yeah LOL, I have taken so many drug tests for work and the Air Force, that it is force of habit.</p>
<p>haha. you're in the air force? what base are you stationed at?</p>
<p>during my time there was this twitchy girl in front of me. We were supposed to drive uphill, stop the car halfway, pull the brakes up, release the brakes and continue uphill over the other side. she did fine till she pulled the brake. when she released the brake, i think she must've forgotten the clutch and floored the accelerator. but because the clutch was depressed at the same time (that's the only explaination i can think of) the engine just made a freaking loud noise but the car slid downhill. and the exhaust pipe emitted SO MUCH smoke that the invigilator had to clear the area to prevent asthma attacks.</p>
<p>she failed.</p>
