Default Theory test

My sister is taking her theory test soon

Thought i'd give it a go again, got 35 out of 35 when i took it.
Loads more questions now & 2 parts

Have a go for free at the government website.

Had a go & still passed

Who is brave enough to give it a go?

The problem is, some of the questions are not "real world" are they?

You find yourself answering what they want to hear, not what you would actually do. But that's the way it is when you have driven for a number of years.

I found that the "real world" answer to some of the questions was not even an option. But then again, I suppose an option like.....

... Flash your lights, honk your horn, give many and various fingered salutes and call the other bloke a cnut!..........

Is not the best of ways

If you mention the Convoy to Ian, he would no doubt tell you that the only one he knows is the film from the 1970's.

You know......... the decade when he was in his 50's
