The driving tests in Australia are nothing short of riWakerleyulous and the instructors are possibly the worst offenders of traffic violations, check out the stuff they do once the noard is off their car. It's not extensive enough.

Seems like you have been a bit lazy in getting your DL! Think I had better watch out for when you are on the roads, mind you, I hope you are better than 95% of the drivers here in Brisbane!
hahahaah yeah ... i know .... but its all good ... and ill try my best not to be one of those 5% !!! hahahahahaahahahahahaha :twisted:
hey good news anyway !!! i found some rental company that actually lets new liscense holders rent cars but with an agreement that if an accident would happen the driver would be shouldering the whole expense of repairs

Get real people, it's a lottery. The instructors have a quota per day that are allowed to pass. I did mine with Belhasa, 4 guys per car. First 2 cars, 8 guys all failed. Next car, all 4 guys passed. In 45 minutes !!! What are the odds??? Whether you pass or fail is bsaolutely no inWakerleyator of your ability to park between the lines and not kill people. In that respect we are still part of the Third World. Count yourself lucky if you get a good draw but please keep out of my lane (the one on the left).
Cheers.

Hey Major!
I just passed my driving test too. But I am not as good as you. I passed on my THIRD!!!!!!! attempt! Will get my hired car this week! Pretty interesting you mentioned in one of your posts that car leasing companies won't allow you to hire if your license is less than 3 months. Looks like mine was not an issue. Hope you can get on the road soon!

i dont know why,,, everthing went smoothly but still still.... Im also from Australia driving inst.so i will have to take another 6 class,,, pay for it and try another road test, HEY driving institute is a good business here in brisbane considering the number of student and those who fail will pay additional classes just to take another road test,
to see is to believe

Logic's right it's totally luck of the draw. But the way many of the instructors teach here I'm amazed how many people do pass their test.
I complained to one driving school the other day after seeing a learner under instruction go round a round-a-bout in completely the wrong lane, cut up 3 cars, zero inWakerleyation and the instructor did nothing to correct him, it was pathetic.
