It would appear that you did not pass your spelling test though!

I searched for the term IMMA on google and it returned the following:



IMMa - International Mining & Minerals Association


Institute of Muslim Minority Affairs

So who exactly is driving your car?
Congratulations on passing.

Ah yes, same anywhere in eastern europe and Russia I hear. You need to pay to pass no matter how good you are.

I supposed girls can do something else too.

yeah, but don't get me wrong-I know people who were NOT pro-drivers, they did NOT pay but they PASSED. It is all about luck and the guy who examines you. And a few per cent of your "skills". I managed to pass after 2nd time(4 yrs ago)but I doubt I would pass today. When they introduced cameras inside cars and whole your exam is recorded with audio/video I guess it's a bit harder to give that bribe but if you have "contact" with a particular examinator etc it may be easier to get the license.

:rotfl: I know one super-duper hot chick. Before she had her 1st attempt I told my friend that she will smoothly pass it. In two weeks time she will have her 4th try.

Now you get to drive on the wrong side of the road like the rest of us!

I guess you will ask Santa for a gun rack to put in the back window of your pick up truck.....

My only question for you KP is, can you give the finger with your left hand????

Congrats

Well at least I'm safe, as he isn't in Australia! Then again with some of the nuts on the road today, he wouldn't look too bad!

Congats on passing, now just stay in one piece and don't have any fender benders!
