h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

I don't like to brag, but I just passed my driving test

Congrats ! I failed - swerved to avoid a Mini, and found a bus !

That was my second attempt - the first time I did lots of things wrong, but the major ones were:

1: swerved into a parking position between two cars to avoid hitting a dustbin lorry, in the process driving onto the grass verge (up a really big kerb)
2: took ten minutes to turn right out of a junction
3: really mucked up the gear changing coming off the A14 dual carriageway

but the examiner did bad things too:

1: was rude
2: used the dual controls without telling me and without explaining why or marking it on the form

Which was really inexcusable. Thankfully I got someone different the second time

That was my first attempt. Apparently 85%of men who fail first time pass second time, so I should get round to doing it again sometime (August probably).
