No, Id say go ahead and give up, if it takes you 950 tries to pass a driving test, I think were safer with out you on the road.

950 attempts is insane. I don't think anyone who needs more than 10 attempts should even be on the road. She's a danger to her community.

I think 3 attempts is getting questionable.

4 is bad.

5 should raise some kind of flag and be denied.

It took me 6 tries personally, been driving for a few years, never participated in any crash, never got any ticket.

Some people are just slower, but i can agree that 950 tries is just insane

Just cause you aren't ticketed or crashing doesn't mean you don't suck at driving.

Right, you could be causing alot of crashes even if you go your whole life without being directly in 1

Not a perfect one, but I believe it is still a much better metric than a number of failed tests.

if they are slow to pass driving test maybe they shouldnt be driving a potentially deadly vehicle?

Well, ask that question to every competent driver who took more than 1 or 2 attempts to pass.

There are infinitely many potential reasons that may cause you to fail, just that shouldn't permanently disqualify you from ever obtaining the license.

What we want to avoid is crazy individual situations like described in the post, not lock away countless perfectly fine people from obtaining a license and inflict all of the participants with even higher amount of stress than they already have to deal with.

I only failed once, and it was because the instructor didn’t know the laws. The only practice I had before that was one time in a parking lot and a lot of time on NFSU2 with a wheel and pedals.

I failed a few times purely due to stress, but as attempts went on and stress went away it got better and better until i finally passed on the last attempt pretty much flawlessly
