Took me 3 times to pass the theory. My stupid dyslexia totally misunderstood what I was ment to be doing, I explained after the 2nd time and then they tell me I can use ear phones and hear the questions did that 3rd time no problem lol

Passed my practical 1st time. But I did ask the test bloke to not say turn left or right but instead turn your way or my way lol

4. My driving instructor was so annoyed as it was all due to nerves.

I thought I'd failed at the start of my 4th test and thought "fuck it, just get to the end" and I passed.

Examiner said he saw me visibly relax when I thought I'd screwed it up and that's why I passed because the nerves had disappeared.

Twice.

Failed in my instructors corsa with a woman who had the same name as me.

Passed with the chief examiner in my partners 2 litre mondeo, though I didn't know he was the chief till after. I got out and they all expected me to say I had failed as they knew before I drove off. Thank god I didn't know id have been a bag of nerves.

I rushed mine through a week before the theory test came out so put a lot of pressure on myself to pass first time. Barely made it by the skin of my teeth.

Took a mock theory a few times since, and usually failed by 1 or 2 points although I did pass a few including the most recent one haha
