I went to the DMV to put in an effort to complete my testing and receive my license. Little did I know, the questions for the DMV’s test are ridiculous. I took a few of the sample tests to prepare and I felt pretty confident. That was my undoing. It is necessary to answer 25 questions while getting 5 or less wrong. It didn’t seem too difficult and I always considered myself a pretty solid test taker.
I was wrong. After a 45 minute wait to get started (it was the DMV after all) it took me less than three minutes to answer 10 questions correctly and 6 wrong. The test immediately shuts down and sends you back to the counter to accept your lashes.
I can’t believe I failed. The clerk behind the counter looked at me with pity and said I was welcome to come back next week to give it another shot. For a moment, I thought about what would happen if I just never came back. Am I the type of guy who could live outside the law for the rest of my life? I quickly brushed the thought aside as I don’t really fancy a life on the run. Instead, I resolved to study up this weekend with the snow storm and come back next week for vindication.
I will, of course, keep you all updated.
