And we thought the driving test was bad!

Mungo sent this to me on Facebook, so I just had to share with all of you:

A South Korean woman just passed the written driving exam in her country after 950 tries over the last 4 years!!!

Gives a new meaning to the saying "If at first you don't succeed, try-try again!"

No kidding!! I thought I was spending a lot of money on lessons and exams! 

Jewlz,

Yes, this does put the finances in perspective a bit more. I had hoped that the first 10 hours of lessons would be enough. But, looks like I will need at least 10 more... probably 20 more.  Unlearning my US style driving is harder than I thought!

It took me a while to change my steering and shifting/clutch habits, but it's going well now. I have had about 10 90-minute lessons so far, I think, with 4 more to go, so I guess that would be the equivalent of about 20 hour-long lessons. And hopefully I will pass in December, as the weekly lessons are eating away at our finances. 

What are the odds of failing the exam 950 times? Was she *trying* to fail? By random guessing alone, she should have passed before she hit 100!

LOL! You would think so!
