Today, I went to the DMV for my second attempt to get my license. I did everything perfectly, stayed at the speed limit, did my three-point turn flawlessly, and parked nicely. The lady failed me because I wasn't using the stick shift right. My car doesn't have a stick shift. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I failed my driving test before even leaving the DMV parking lot. 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 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 the DMV to get my license. I almost ran over my evaluator as he was walking to get in the car. 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 failed to get my driver's licence. My father was the instructor. FML
Today, I drove all the way to another state and dealt with Chicago traffic on the way just to learn to drive stick. I couldn't learn, because the truck was suddenly unavailable, and when it was available again, whoever had it last lost the keys. Guess I gotta make another trip. FML
Today, I drove my new car with a manual transmission for the first time by myself. I was at a stoplight and saw a cute guy in the car next to me. He looked my way and gave me "the nod". The light turned green and I tried to go but I stalled out, lurching my car forward right into the car next to me. 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 failed my driving test. I rammed into the parallel parking poles, ran a stop sign, and stopped at a cross intersection. My instructor called me an idiot. FML

What a bitch. If only you could fail her for not shifting someone else's stick right.... on second thought, you probably could. Just wear protection... I mean drive better.

She probably didn't know how to use the stick shift right...

That obviously can be changed if you explain that. Don't just accept the result.

If you don't have stick shift, you are not fit to drive.

What about those who can drive stick but prefer not to? For instance I was taught to drive stick, I passed my test in a stick shift car, own a stick shift car, but my daily driver is automatic because I'm always in stop and go traffic and stick is annoying for that.

You kind of deserved it. If you live here in Croatia, you wouldn't be able to get a license at all, if you can't drive stick.

Maybe you should have offered her a small bribe to let you pass.

It's not as bad or funny as that glasses ad involving sex and the stick shift.

I hope you then went inside & demanded that a competent employee handle that shit immediately.
