The three minute test

Posted on July 26, 2004

The ‘getting locked out’ of my own house was the bad thing that happened on Saturday. The good thing that happened was passing my driving test.

The wait for the RTO inspector stretched on for 3 hours. I nearly played hop-scotch on the pavement outside the RTO. To make matters doubly difficult, the driving school brought along its oldest Maruti – the one where you have to use all your force to step on the clutch to change a gear!

‘Drive’, said the inspector. Then, ‘take right’. ‘Now reverse’. ‘Now stop the car’.

That’s it! 3 minutes and it’s all over.

The system never ceases to amaze me 🙂

    By th£ way – th£ only way of l£aving comm£nts h£r£ is to avoid th£ us£ of th£ fifth l£tt£r of th£ alphab£t (th£ most common l£tt£r). As you can s££ I hav£ substitut£d th£ “pound” sign inst£ad – and this s££ms to work OK until th£ blacklist is fix£d! 🙂
