 Grandson passes driving test & he did not know! - Falkirk Bairn
Grandson lives in Texas and at 15 he got his Provisional.
He has been out in the car with his dad for roughly 2 to 3 hours per week for a year.
40+ hours on-line videos/questions on driving.

There are no driving schools like we have in the in the UK, Driving Test requirements are more modest than the UK

He was looking to sit his test so his dad arrange 3 x 1.5 hours with Tony's Driving Tuition.
First 2 went fine and the lad went out on Saturday Morning for No 3

He came out with an envelope containing a PASS certificate.
The woman who gave him the 2 lessons is also a contract Driving Test Examiner so she provided him with a pass as in her words " 80 minutes driving and did all that was required to pass his test"

Really worrying from a driving instructor marking of a learner who is paying her money for instruction!

He has to go to the licencing centre with his paperwork, photograph and new licence issued.
He then, in theory can drive on the roads - 8-10 lanes in each direction in a few places across the 30 mile wide city roads!

In under 2 years he is looking to come to university here - that will be a "real test" that he will have to pass within 6 months of arriving here!
