So my bro passed his driving test today!

He got failed twice because here in Northern Ireland the examiners follow whats called the 80% rule, this is where they fail 80% of all exams(total BS).

But he passed and its about fucking time :)
So now hes gonna be my chauffeur :lol:

I failed the time I ran over the parallel parking polls, but passed the time I nearly ran someone over. P:
America FTW

Grats on having someone to drive you around, if he's actually willing to do so. o_o;

in the UK, you can learn to drive when your 17 (unless you were born before december 1991 since they changed the rules I think), so naturally, loads of people in college are all speeding around in their cars, a lot have them have actually been in a few scrapes already...

I haven't learnt to drive since I was the last in my year to actually be allowed to drive since my birthday is in july, and also, i'm living on campus (hopefully) when I go to university next year, so I don't see any point at the minute though.

Glad your brother passed, that 80% BS sounds terrible, I bet a bit of that goes on in england aswell...

I actually didn't get my drivers license at 16 like most people my age. I lived in the city where you could walk anywhere you needed, so it wasn't really necessary. But once I moved back to the country, woo-whee. It takes 30 miles to just get to the mall :(
