Today, while on my driving test, the guy told me to pull over and do a U-turn. A few minutes later, he asked me to do another one. After the test, he said I'd failed because the second U-turn was illegal, and I should have refused to comply. I didn't know they're even allowed do that. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I got pulled over during my driving test. FML
Today, I took my driving test. I had pulled out of my three point turn in a neighborhood and started driving again, thinking something wasn't quite right. The lady testing me looked over at me and said, "Sweetie, you're driving on the wrong side of the road." FML
Today, I took my driving test. As I was about to turn at a green light, a car sped toward us from the other direction, running a red light. My instructor failed me because I stopped to avoid getting rammed. Apparently I should have kept going, because it was my right of way. FML
Today, I took my driver's test. I did everything flawlessly, but my examiner kept all but pissing his pants throughout. He yelled, "ARE YOU TRYING TO GET US KILLED?!" when I drove past a traffic light just as it was about to turn red. The road was almost empty. He failed me on the spot. FML
Today, I failed my driving test. The examiner insisted I that didn't check a junction before pulling out. I did, he just didn't notice because he was too busy staring at my chest. FML
Today, I was taking my driving test and everything was going perfectly. As I pulled back into the testing center, I smiled because I knew I'd passed. Then I got out of the car without pulling the handbrake. The examiner had to jump back in and hit the brakes before it rolled into an actual parked car. FML
Today, I took my driving test. I was nervous, but I thought I followed the rules of the road pretty well. My tester ended up failing me for "backing out too slowly". FML
Today, I drove 45 minutes to take my full driver's test. At the end of the test, the instructor told me I'd done everything perfectly, but had failed before I left the parking lot. I didn't see the "one way" sign at the entrance. FML
Today, I was pulled over by a cop and was fined $210 for making an illegal u-turn. When the cop finished writing my ticket and hopped in his car, he made the same u-turn. FML
Today, I had my first driving test. The instructor turned out to be the kind of twit who made me do the full 60-minute test, only to tell me afterwards that he was failing me for the only mistake I made less than 2 minutes after the test started. Time wasting tit. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Why would he let you take an illegal turn, or even suggest it in the first place? Sounds to me like someone has to reread their job description

What a douchebag.

They are completely allowed to deceive you to make you stumble. It's a test, not a lesson. YDI for not knowing the road rules

They aren't supposed to tell you to break any rules of the road. Your instructor is a t fault.

In Canada it's illegal for the tester to ask the driver todo anything illegal.

Depends on the tester. Seems so many are assholes. During my test, I was waiting at a round about and no one was indicating off, and i got beeped by the guy behind me. I was waiting for it to be "safe" to proceed. And the tester faulted me for that. Seems to be more important to just plough through and smash into another car than wait for it to be safe. Talk to someone in authority, or if you just have to do the test again, go to a different testing centre.

They're actually not supposed to do stuff like that. Report him.

They are absolutely not allowed to lie to you to test your denial, it used to be allowed, but recently has changed to not allowed

poor you. i've recently passed my test at second attempt, it's still fresh in my mind how dreadful 45 minutes it was each time.

That's a real dick move. When I passed my driving test, it was probably only because I was friendly with the tester. He said I 'maybe' should have yielded to a UPS truck, but passed me as long as I was careful in the future. I'm pretty sure smalltalk got me my license.
