National Drivers Test - Results
Your score was: 100%
A score of 70% or better is considered passing on a state written drivers test. The correct answers are highlighted below.

What ticks me off is that my state came in # 44 with an 80 % avg....

 

[unit5610]

Why am I not surprised that Rhode Island came in dead last?
No one in this crazy little state knows...
a. what a blinking red light means
b. that "yield" is not the same as "enter really fast, without looking"
c. that you should use a blinker
d. that when you pull into the travel lane of the interstate from the breakdown lane, you should speed up first.
e. that SUV's are no better than a sled when there's ice.
...and much more.

WOOHOO! 84 for illinois!::: pelvic thrusts::

 

[Mimi]

It told me the test was unavailable due to an overwhelming response of people trying to take it....

But I do have to comment on one thing....

22. Illinois 84.3

That's a LIE!!!!!!!! Someone CHEATED to get Illinois that high on the list! Those FIBS couldn't drive their way out of a playschool parking garage! Then they come up here and run all of US off the road!! *shakes fist*

 

[tickledorange]

That's NORTERN Illinois. Now SOUTHERN Illinois, we're the coolest.

 

[asutickler]

If you figured in all of the old people who live in Arizona during the winter, we'd be dead last. Emphasis on the "dead" part. *shudder*

Blah, u hush u cheese head

That's NORTERN Illinois. Now SOUTHERN Illinois, we're the coolest.

Much other than my distaste for the whole area down there(specifically granite city\collinsville and st louis) I do enjoy its the only highway where i can get away with doin 110 in a taurus

 

[maniactickler]

My state came in at a solid 48th place. looks like ill need to step up my road rage and vigilantism to straighten things out a bit.

 

[Mz Chaos]

Whoooo Hooooo!!! Nothing wrong with being #2!!! Especially when you're still above average!

 

[isabeau]

in the top twenty??? with all the fatalities right here within fifteen minutes of where i live? hmmm

20 "simple" questions....

 

[TklDuo-Ann]

I scored 100%. Now, if they tested the rest of the state, the average might reach 50%. I don't buy the 80.9% for a second. People in this state either don't know or don't care....probably more the latter.

[lk70]

Hmm. NJ is pretty low on that list but everyone knows what great drivers New Jerseyans are. Maybe we're just not good test takers?

 

[Mimi]

Drat, I got one wrong (the rain one), but still scored 95, well above average.

I do enjoy its the only highway where i can get away with doin 110 in a taurus

I rest my case!!!

[drew70]

Yee Haw!! Washington DC! Second to last place!! We got Senators and Representatives and politicians and who all know what's best for the country, they just don't drive worth a shit!

 

[Mz Chaos]

Maybe the reason Washington scored so high was the fact that in the winter... on icy winding mountain roads... one screw up and you're over the side of a cliff. No chance to screw up again, so the only ones left are the drivers who can control their skid while negotiating a curve.
95% on the test. Maybe I ought to drive on more highways and less on back roads. White arrows??? I thought those were on the regular streets.

I think its because noone goes out much up there cause its always raining.

 

[Mastertank1]

I don't believe it for a minute.

New York number 47?

If it's going by rank, New York has the rankest drivers in the country by far! Probably in the world.
New York drivers think points on your license are a good thing; they think they can redeem them for prizes!

A recent public opinion poll indicated that 95% of all people with driver's licenses in this country consider themselves to be above average in driving skills.
Either that other 5% are REALLY awful, or a lot of them are wrong!

We who play and dance are thought mad by they who hear no music.

That's the other side of the state.
