    You just need to remember what you've been taught.

    The idiots on that show are extreme cases of people forgetting how to drive properly, or where they should not have got their licence in the first place. Even the worst driver can have a lucky test.

    It's not helped by the theory test being a complete joke, people just memorise all the answers and end up on the road making up their own highway code as they go along.

    The show is rubbish anyway, they add in sound effects of people sounding their horn at the bad driver and repeatedly show the same clips out of context.
    “I may not agree with you, but I will defend to the death your right to make an a** of yourself.”
