I failed miserably :-((( 18/35 However, In my defence. I have never been to the U:K: let alone driven there. Some of the signs I have never seen before. Took my learner's and driver's license in Toronto, Cananda and passed first time. Stopped driving six years ago on account of too many people driving like a bat out of hell. Therefore, I shall give myself a pass. Lindy:-)))))))))

I failed too !! 28/35. I'm gutted lol In my defence I haven't heard of a toucan crossing either, and I've never seen a tram, let alone what to expect on the roads (and as for what makes it safer to tow a caravan... well I'm never going to tow one, so I don't care). My wife, who doesn't drive, just got 22/35, which I think is pretty good really.

33. But I only guessed at the Toucan crossing (never come across one of those) and the tram question (never come across one of those either!).

My daughter passed with 31, exactly the same total as her real theory test back in november last year, and she passed her driving test just a few months afterwards.

It would have been very embarrassing if I had failed but I managed 32. Phew! Caught out on those blasted pelicans and I put my valuables on the floor. Bob (Drives for a living)

I just passed and got 30. Theory tests hadn't arrived when I passed in 1994. Always been good with road signs...especially nicking them after a drunken night out. :-)))
