Near-Crash Tests

When people are in a controlled environment, they don't necessarily drive safer. For example, the Daily Telegraph reports that over 110,000 driving tests nearly ended in a crash last year.

More than 1,000 of those ended in an accident or an assault of the examiner. Definitely not the best behavior.

Another interesting statistics figure from that article shows the pass rate in the UK last year, and it's not a pretty number: only 46.32% of the tests ended with a passing score. Definitely not a good figure.

If you want to pass and be prepared, you better get a driving test guide that will get you ready for the test.

16 And Fail

Some people pass their driving test on the first try. Some on the second. Fewer on the third. Some don't do it even on their sixteenth time. Last year, two people took the driving test sixteen times, and one failed.

According to Britain's DSA, only the passing rate for the first time is 45%. That's right, less than half the people pass on the first time. 25% pass on the second time, which makes it a nice 70% passing rate for the first two tests, but leaves 30% for the others, which can go as high as 16 tests and beyond.

A driving test guide will get you in the happy 45% if you follow it well. If you don't, don't be surprised if you find yourself in the bottom 30%.

How Hard Can It Be?

Parking can be quite difficult, but making it a big deal shows that the driver is not the best one. For the end of April, here's one who made a huge deal out of it.



Have a great weekend!

Want to Pass? Know Where to Live

What's your chance of passing the driving test in Ireland? Of course, if you are well prepared, you will probably pass, but statistics never lies. The overall passing rate is 51.8% (that's it!). However, this is not even close to the actual rates of specific RSA offices.

The Rathgar office in Dublin has the worst passing rates in Ireland. Only 30.6% of the people taking their test there pass, probably because of a tricky test route.

However, if you take the test in Sligo, your chances are more than doubled: 67.1%. This difference is, once again, due to the test route. An urban test is much more difficult. It's harder to handle city traffic during rush hour, and much easier to handle quiet areas with little traffic.

If you have a driving test guide, your chances will increase regardless of your test office. Try it.
