Driving test goes horribly wrong

my first test the examiner was a stand in and didnt know the area... told me to do an emergency stop of a road that went from 30 to 60 I pointed it out to him and he took the hump before telling me to "get on with it".

The instructor was in bits when he saw the car on the back of a tow truck after it got rear ended by a van.... took nearly a year for VOSA/DSA or whoever to take responsibility and pay up
 
I knew a guy who claimed to have hit a lollipop lady on his test.
I can't imagine you'd make that up, or admit to it.
 
Where the RAF used to do their driving at St Athan in Wales, there was an instructor called the laughing assassin. He seemed to have a wry smile on his face when he failed you.
 
I'd have been proud of that when I was 17 :)
I managed to fail twice. Once by mounting the curb on Majuba road in Redcar, then by going through red lights resulting the examiner hitting the duplicate brake and stalling the car in the middle of the junction :)
 
I passed my test first time with a couple of minor faults. The reason for this was I thought I had failed it at the first corner. As a consequence my nerves completely disappeared. With the pressure off I sailed through.

I've since tried this tactic many other times in life and it has never worked. For example I go on a date, the first thing I do is tell her she looks fat or something like that. I am unmarried.
