"Passed me theory test"

Excellent. I hadn't really read the highway code or anything, and I finished after 7 minutes. Bit pointless if you ask me. I can now take my actual test, which is a good thing. Go me.

Yeah, it is a bit worryingly easy. And also worrying when people fail.

Suppose I shouldn't say that because I'm sure I've just humiliated someone, but sorry...:

YOU ARE APPROACHING A HORSE RIDER, DO YOU:

A) BEEP THE HORN TO ALERT THE RIDER THAT YOU ARE THERE
B) SLOW DOWN AND OVERTAKE WHEN SAFE
C) GET OUT OF CAR AND SHOOT HORSE
D) TURN RADIO ON LOUD TO HOPEFULLY FRIGHTEN AWAY HORSE

Go you.

When you pass, promise me one thing. That you will run over as many ginger cats as you see. Please?

As good as C is, should it not be 'get out of car and shoot rider'? :-D

And surely beeping the horn would frighten away the horse before turning on the radio.

I think I'm being too serious...

There's one which went something like this...

You should be wary of older drivers because:

A) Their reactions are faster than yours
B) They often drive too fast.
C) Their reactions are slower than yours
D) Their reactions are so fast, they know what you're going to do before you do.

Erm, yeah. I recently passed mine, and found it much harder than I expected (however, I expected it to be stupidly easy). My problem was that literally half my questions had nothing to do with driving itself, they were on subjects like baby seats, insurance and what to do if a motorcyclist is injured. Unfortunately, the answer 'Drive away as fast as you can' was not available for selection.

I assume you're referring to the 'What do you do when your wife brings home a baby seat' question?

Was 'drive over him to make sure' available?

The stupidest one I got was:

You have had an argument and are feeling angry. Before you drive should you:

a) Make sure you drive faster to relieve tension
b) Calm down first (HM, I wonder)
c) (This cracked me up, right in a silent exam room) Have an alcoholic drink to steady your nerves.
d) Drive at 20mph or slower

Well done Gaz, those tests are pants but they do keep the really thick people of the roads which makes them a little safer.
