      Driving tests aren’t all that easy in the UK. Not the hardest in the world by a long stretch but they’re very easy to fail.

        The practical is hard. The theory is pretty basic. One of the questions I had was

        You’ve just had a heated argument and are in a bad mood, but you need to drive somewhere. Do you:

        • Drive with some calming music
        • Drive fast to your destination and try not to think about it
        • Drink an alcoholic drink to calm down while you’re driving
        • Wait until you’ve calmed down completely before driving

        The UK’s driving test is one of the hardest in the world apparently. A lot of them in other countries don’t even take place on actual roads.

      I know people in the Netherlands that are fine drivers after failing 5 times. It’s pretty hard here, no clue about other countries.
