driving examiners,do not have quotas,as to fail some and pass some,you will pass your test if you show you can drive a car on the highway in a safe manner,your boyfriend is,by the sound of it not ready to be unleashed on the general road public yet.
What your friend said is total rubbish. Possibly designed to make your boyfriend feel better but is unlikely to help him in the long run.

But there is no shame in failing your driving test, the idea is for it to be difficult, what I would suggest is that if he is taking private lessons he should change his driving instructor, it could be that his current instructor is not picking up on something he might be doing wrong.

If he isn't taking private lessons I suggest he does so.

I'm a synical sort so feel free to ignore this part ;) but is it not in his instructors interest for him not to pass.

Good luck to him whatever he decides to do.
What did he fail on, he should have been told so he could concentrate on those points.

It is a myth as WO WO says that so many have to fail, if he is a competent driver he will pass. One of your friends is talking out of his XXXX

hi he failed as he drove thru a closed junction, without stopping., he never seen it
driving instructor said he's up to test standard..i guess he should pay more attention when driving then
cheers for response.

he takes at least 2 hourly private lesson per week, and usually 1 just before the test.
he's now over his depression and determined to get it this time. 4th time lucky?!!

cheers for advice,
If all else fails, i can forge a driving licence. The security is easy to get by when you have the same equipment as the pros do.

Hi,

You quote - "One of our friends suggested driving INSTRUCTORS" have to pass so many and fail so many each day".

Hardly - driving "instructors do NOT take driving tests. That is the job of a highly trained Driving Test EXAMINER!!!!!!

Instructor have very little idea about the driving test OR the training involved to be an Examiner.
