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

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
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, as I was taking the driver's test to get my license, I backed into a car. It belonged to the instructor sitting in my passenger seat. 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 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 spent 30 minutes with the handbrake on. FML
Today, while I was taking my driver's test, my instructor received a text message. He promptly had a panic attack and screamed for me to pull over. It turned out his wife wanted a divorce. The last 15 minutes of my test consisted of him sobbing to himself as I drove back to the DMV. 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 hit a parked car. It happened to be my driving instructor's car. While he was instructing me, sitting in the passenger seat. I don't think I'll pass. FML
Today, I got pulled over during my driving test. FML
Today, I took my driving test for the first time. The instructor stopped it after less than ten minutes, and insisted she drive back to the test centre "in the interest of public safety." FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

"Accidentally". Well that's one way to get a passing score.

Right,...I'm sure she "accidentally" held his "hand"

Where did the fml go about being friend zoned? Is it normal for them to pull fmls off the main feed?

I don't think you can come back from something like this.

300th like! Wohoo!

Now he knows you have a habit of not only driving with one hand, but having the other one too far should you need to react quickly. How needy is your boyfriend?
Noreason89 6
I doubt he is all that needy couples hold hands while driving all the time
ballerboy20 8
he also knows op has been driving illegally if they have a permit...
RedPillSucks 33
Some states allow a provisional permit where you can drive without a parent during the day or when going to, or coming from work.
ballerboy20 8
you have to actually pass your test first to get your license otherwise you still have to have a parent
mikbrooke 25
it doesnt always have to be a parent teaching you. it just has to be someone who meets the requirements for driving with a learner, & OPs boyfriend could meet those requirements.
ballerboy20 8
i guess im assuming op is 16 but that would have to mean the bf is a good bit older for him to qualify
XSimpleDesignX 18
I don't know about other places, but in Texas when you have your permit the other person in the car just needs to be a licensed driver over 21. So her learning with him could be completely legal. I would hope she's not 16 and dating someone that old if it's the same where she lives.
damnit1989 16
Why is everyone assuming they had to have a parent? In Colorado, you only have to have someone in the car that is 18+ and licensed. It does not have to be a parent specifically. With that in mind, maybe her bf is 18 and licensed.
ohcheriecherie 20
Also OP might not be 16, she could have just put off getting her license til now.

Awkward.

That's the direction I thought this story was going in at first...

I was thinking stick shift, myself.

Guys - FML isn't the place to get all up on each other. Save it for iFunny.
Jasmine_de 10
That must have been awkward

If he was a cool instructor he would have placed it back on the the wheel and pretended like nothing happened.
Ihavegas 22
you didn't go for his junk phew!! just saw someone beat me ahhh
Lmc22391 6
You shouldn't let people beat you. You gotta defend yourself. (Sarcasm)
cakefete2 31
So it's gotten to the point where we literally have to spell out sarcasm for people to get it, huh?
raz_berri93 16
Unfortunately, the internet is a very sensitive place full of people that don't usually read sarcastically. People get angry at the smallest things lately.
Miss_Whipped 43
Or some don't assume that most people on the internet are clever enough to invoke sarcasm into their responses effectively and appropriately. If it has to be spelled out, it wasn't effective to begin with and certainly loses its effect afterward.

Brilliant.. Just brilliant

The same can not be said of the comment m'afraid.
Mynamewontfi 40
That's an odd thing to do, even with your boyfriend, imo. Are you such a bad driver that you have to comfort him by holding hands that everything will be alright?
laden_swallow09 35
Could be the other way around, and she's the needy one.
jazzy_123 20
it's just a habit geez. I hold my bfs hand sometimes when I'm driving and vice versa. LOTS of people do it.
EvilPuggy 11
I think it's sweet. D:
Psychicgirl17 18
and then u get points taken off for not having both hands on the wheel.
Axel5238 29
I was using the mod feature and saw a variation of this except the person said they failed for taking their hand off the wheel and grabbing the instructors hand. I wonder if the OP submitted 2 of these. Depending on the instructor they may have failed the person for their reaction.
