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

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
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

Maybe you should report that because they aren't allowed to tell you do something illegal.

Yep, they throw in false turns and stops to see if you know the code. Study a bit more and try again, OP.

why is no one pointing out the fact that they actually should not ask you to do something illegal, regardless of the fact that you were being tested? your instructor was being a douche, and you should report him.

OP, sorry for your luck but I live in Pennsylvania and they do the same thing here. Know the law and follow it. If they tell you to turn during a red light look for no turns on red signs. Its a test and he tested you.

Kinda sounds like he just decided he didn't like you and wanted to fail you whether you did well or not.

This is why, even if it's in 2 years, I'm so ******* nervous for my driving test. Driving instructors are so cruel these days and pretty much for the entire test, they're just tricking people's minds into doing illegal driving acts, and they fail people just for that. How were you even supposed to know it was illegal first of all? You're a NEW driver, only 15 or 16 years old... FYL dude.

I may get buried for this comment but that was a test and you should've known The rules by that point. If The road you're driving has a contínuos(?) like in The middle of it, you shouldn't let your car's tyres touch it, let alone cross it unless there's a obstacle on your way.

They're not. They can't ask you to do anything illegal and there can't be trick questions. Report him

Where I live they can do that and they do. Lots of people fail because of it.
