1962 never had a single lesson took first test in a 1959 Vauxhall Cresta failed for not stopping a zebra crossing, person on the other side of the road, my cousin told me not to stop for them
Second test ancient Bedford DormobiIe I borrowed, rotten as a pear. Examiner got in and I tied the sliding door shut with a bit of rope
He said to me "If that door falls off you've failed"
Luckily it didn't
Funny to think I went on to become a Driving Examiner
Most dagerous job I ever had
Passed bike test first time on a Mobelette 49cc, straight out and bought a proper bike Ariel Red Hunter.
