I'm not wrong.  Don't know what to tell you.  Tell me, did your dad take the test more recently than 20 years?  Yeah, didn't think so. 

Not sure why I'm even wasting the time.  I'm 100% sure I'm a right.  Just like I was throughout this entire thread.

Im too lazy to go back to the original post, whats up with the test you guys are discussing? I took it 7 years ago and my wife took it 5 years ago so I may be able to provide an opinion on it.

All I can say is I failed first time not because I was too fast, but because I was too slow at 20mph on a 30mph rd. I also took the test in US and Brazil, for reference

It truly is a dumb argument between me and a few others.  Basically, on the theory test there is a question, "what do you do when you get a flat on the motorway?"  I answered, "change the tire," which was wrong.  The right answer is call "emergency services with the closest phone."  

I'm being told I am wrong and that isn't true.  Then it got into some stupid semantic war to prove I don't know what I am talking about for reasons.  Bear in mind I was questioned by folks who never stepped foot in the UK or haven't even taken the test, because of course they would know more.  Just like some in this thread knowing more about middle American than me, because some how living in middle America for 32 years means nothing. 

The UK driver's test is no joke, both the theory, hazard awareness and practical.  Way harder, and rightfully so, than US driver's test.

The irony being I think the whole emergency services to change tires on the motorway is actually a good thing and better than the US's perspective of "figure it out yourself."  So I even like their position, but some how I am still the enemy for reasons.  

Why a mod chose to bring up a completely off the topic discussion is a mystery to me.
