Today, I took my road test. I'd never had driver's training and my mom taught me how to drive. I failed the test so badly, and when I got home my mom admitted to having taught me how to drive completely wrong because she didn't want me to get my license as she thinks I'm too young. I'm 18. FML

Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.
Today, I failed to get my driver's licence. My father was the instructor. 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 passed my driver's test. My instructor took the learner signs off his car and let me drive back to my place. I guess he didn't bet on me crashing the car just a few blocks from the test center. 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 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, after failing my learner's licence twice in the previous weeks, I finally passed. As I got home, I went for a drive with my dad. I smashed my mum's car into an old lady's fence and ended up in her backyard. FML
Today, I took my driving test. It was all going well until out of habit from driving with my boyfriend, I reached over and held my instructor's hand. 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 failed my driving test. I've been a legal driver in my home country for 8 years, but can't pass the test here. 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
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

this doesn't make sense to me. in california, you need at least 3 behind-the-wheel lessons with a certified instructor before taking the driving test. is it different in michigan?

I'm 18 as well and took my road test 2 days ago without any driver's training. I almost failed it because my mom told me that I was checking my blind spots wrong. So I did it her way and almost failed. ~_~ You don't need driver's training. Just read a handbook and go by that. FYL though.

@ Casualt1234: Like I just posted, I did mine 2 days ago here in California without ever having any lessons, but I'm 18 so I think that makes the difference?

Who cares, you're a chick... you don't need to be driving anyways. Your mom is just doing you a favor. Now quit wasting time on FML and go to the kitchen, you should be learning how to cook, not drive.

However insensitive that was, i somewhat agree...women are (in general) shitty drivers.

nope, i go 100% off of personal experience. 12 women have almost killed me, 1 man has. Untill the men catch up i'm going to believe that women are shit drivers. I'm going entirely off of objective experience. God damn, even my WOMEN friends say women are shit drivers...

Ha ha, maybe you just pissed off a whole lot of chicks you've slept with? My father is the WORST driver imaginable. He calls it "creative driving". His creativity leads him to go 80 miles an hour down Main St, weaving between cars and clipping a few as he goes while eating pizza. :/

wow realy? dude, no offense, but I just think you should steal your mom's car ona these days and take it out for a drive. learn on your own, dont just drive around though, go someplace, and stay there so that its more like your mom's car was stolen.... just saying... also, In my experience as well, i would agree with mrhahn530. More often then not, the people who end up almost hitting me are women. There have been at least 2 men though. and I flicked them off and layed on the horn until I was out of ear-shot. NOTE: More often then not, the dumbass was talking on their cellphone and not paying attention, AND gave me this look like it was my fault. sooo yeaah. soak that in.

Pfft, she's a woman, she probably taught you the way she normally drives and tried to mask it by saying she purposely taught you wrong.

You're such a sexist dumbass.

Really? In this day and age we still have dumb asses who feel the need to make assumptions based on what ******* genitalia we have? I passed with the highest grade in my drivers ED class, and have never ONCE been in ANY sort of accident or gotten pulled over. Neither has my mother. My father has though. :/

You now have every right to be rude and spiteful to your mother. Pay her back in kind. Don't let her think she can get away with this sort of thing, or she'll keep doing it.
