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

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
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 took my driving test. I was really nervous, but I thought I did pretty well in the end. That is until I parked the car and looked to the examiner. He was visibly shaken. He said I'd passed, quickly filled in the paperwork and left. On the downside, my car still smells of his shart. FML
Today, I went to take my driver's test, and I did almost everything perfectly. The last thing was to back into a driveway. As I went to put my hand on the passenger seat to look over my shoulder, I got so nervous that I hit my instructor in the face. 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 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 took my driver's test. I was so nervous that I peed my pants halfway through the exam. 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 took my driver's test. The woman administering it wouldn't even look at me, so trying to be friendly I said the first thing I could think of, "It must be scary getting in the car with someone you don't know!" She failed me for "excessive chatting." 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 passed my driver's test. As I was driving home, I was rear-ended. Rear-ended by the examiner that'd passed me. FML

For the test, you need to play it overly safe. Then, once you're granted a license, drive like every other crazy ******.

Your and his perception of flawless driving clearly differ. I trust his judgement more.

With a drivers test. You have to play safe. If it turns yellow stop without slamming on your brakes. If you make it past with barley staying yellow. Its a red in a officers book, because what they are going to see is " that car just ran a red light. not oh he made it with time to spare. " sorry OP I am with the examiner here. next time stop for yellows.

And it couldn't even be close to flawless. Unless things have changed since I took it, you had to screw up 3 aspects of the test to actually fail.

That depends on how big of a screw-up you have. For example, if a pedestrian has tripped and is lying down on the highway and can't get up, then running him over is still just 1 mistake. But that one mistake is enough to let you fail your test.

Rules in australia... Or at least queensland is stop at yellow if safe to do so. So in those conditions it would be a fail here too. So is hitting the curb under any circumstances.

YDI I'm from Jersey, but spent several years up in Long Island and it never ceases to amaze me that most Jersey people can't drive in bad weather or just in general. A lot of people take stupid chances while driving that cause so many accidents it is unbelievable.

It doesn't matter whether the road was empty or not, he was seeing if you followed the rules which is what matters in the test. YDI with a passion!

Um...you're supposed to follow the road rules EVERY time you're driving, not only when there are cars around you.

I failed my first time for letting a car go through a stop sign ahead of me because someone was crossing the street

Drive safe?

If you knew the light was "about to turn red", why did you go through it? Yellow is a warning, not a speed challenge. Given that you are arrogant enough to think you know better than the examiner just demonstrates exactly why you should absolutely not be put in charge of potentially lethal machinery.

I did that exact thing during mine. My instructor gave me kudos and passed me :D
