...depicted L-plates mounted exclusively inside windows and one testee driving out for test with a wrong-way-round front plate (looked mirrored, but actually rotated 90 degrees). The article was about how to clear the backlog of candidates. Good to see that standards are being maintained.

Spotted that one too. Gave me a chuckle all right.

MG ZR or something wasn't it?

Do you not think there would be more uproar if someone was actually failed for that?

Personally I think if you aven't got the wit to put up an L-plate correctly, you shouldn't be behind the wheel!

Well that’s so annoying man what test centre is that? I’m going to do my test there if they let you away with that.

I fail there back in January for the NCT being out by 3 days. Called both the NCT and driving test to get it reschedule but the driving test office said you will be ok as long as you have proof that you will be doing you NCT within the week. Guess what I fail because I was out by 3 days and the person on the phone was wrong. Fncking! crap!

They need to revamp the entire system. And model it on the German system
