    :D
    A South Korean woman has finally succeeded in passing her driving test on her 960th attempt.

    Cha Sa-soon passed a written exam on her 960th try last year by spending about £11,000, including application fees.

    In South Korea, an aspiring driver must pass a written exam to get behind the wheel for a driving test.

    The 69-year-old failed several driving tests before finally passing on her 960th trip last month.

    Cha said she needed the licence for her vegetable-selling business.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,730 ✭✭✭✭entropi


    You would think after so many attempts she'd have known every question off by heart and could have aced the exam much earlier :p

    In pearness, she deserves a bit of a broccolling. Most people pass their theory tests the first time they turnip

    If she's allowed on the road I'm sure she'll leave a trail of vegetables in her wake.

    She must be the only person ever to make a Korea out of trying to pass a driving test. I haven't got mushroom for these kinds of people.

    She could have passed it years ago if someone offered her some incentive, like a 22 carrott gold bracelet, or something similar.

    Yes, she must have known her onions, but obviously wasn't good at getting the message across.

    Lettuce wait and see how she does on the practical.

    Lol, you reminded me of a famous quote... from the great Homer Simpson

    "Kids, you tried your best and you failed miserably. The lesson is, never try."

    Yes, someone could have leeked the answers to the written test, but it's hard to cheat in the practical.

    Jesus she must have drove her driving instructor vegetables nuts...

    Fortunately, the Korean woman, Cha Sa-soon derived a lot of inspiration from her sister, Pass So-soon, and this was able to drive her on.

    I hear that she's changed her name by deed poll, to Not-Sa Soon.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,583 ✭✭✭cloneslad


    you should see how most of the people over here (korea)with a license drive.....maniacs!!!

    The written exam here is not the same as in Ireland, you have to attend a class where you watch a movie on driver safety which takes up an hour of your time, then you do the test.

    But tbh, if she is any more dangerous than most of the bus drivers / taxi drivers here then I will be very surprised. They seem to think you slow down by beeping the horn if someone pulls out infront of you!!
