Urban Legend – Driving test people have a limited quota of how many they can pass per month. So if you get your test and they have passed loads, your up a gum tree with out a paddle. Can anyone shed any light on this.

clearly that is just a myth/legend .. i mean what if you drive perfectly .. is the exam to try and nit-pick to find the smallest of faults to fail you on .. especially as he'd have to find 15 of them ..
Here's another 1 for you though .. supposedly you are more likely to pass on a certain day .. think it was friday forgot who told me though .. but rather to do with the fact that the examiner has been through the week passed some failed some .. be in a better mood due to weekend etc and might want to keep pass levels at a certain level if hes failed some others ..

my old driving instructor recalled how one of his pupils had driven the perfect test, no errors whatsoever, up until the final reverse park in the test centre. the examiner failed her for not looking into her rear window enough times. apparently 3 times isn't enough, it should have been 4. if that isn't nit-picking...
that was exactly the same as me in my third test,
drove perfectly up until the last fucking minute when i did the reverse park into a parking bay. and a motorbike came into the carpark. nowhere near me at all but just because he didn't see me look at the motorbike, big fucking fail. stupid

i heard that too, quite feasable really. In your test your gonna be concentrating so hard, that the examiner could mark ou down for minors that dont happen, are you going to realise if he puts you down for going too close to the parked, probably not as he wont say anything.
