I failed my driver's test in Oakland today.
My instructor wasn't very nice... I mean, I get some people are naturally just grumpy, or perhaps she was just having a bad day, but come on. R-e-s-p-e-c-t.
Two minutes into the test, I was at a blind intersection. And being the good driver I am, I tried to "creep" forward to get look past the obstructions. But apparently I crept a bit too much, and so my instructor was screaming at me.
her: "STOP! YOU'RE GOING TO GET US INTO A HEAD ON COLLISION! DON'T YOU KNOW THIS IS A BLIND INTERSECTION?! YOU HAVE TO CREEP FORWARD!
me: "...I was."
her: "OH NO YOU WEREN'T, YOU WERE ABOUT TO GO FULL THROTTLE INTO THAT INTERSECTION! I KNOW THE DIFFERENCE YOUNG MAN! BACK THE CAR UP! DO I HAVE TO TEACH YOU HOW TO CREEP FORWARD?!"
me: "...No."
To be completely honest, at that moment, I was really about to tell her to start showing some fucking respect, even if I was younger and had less experience. So now I have to wait 15 days until I can try to retake the test. But knowing how crazy crowded the DMV always is, and how fast the time slots filled up, I have a feeling it's gonna be another long ass while.

People like them piss me off so much. My instructor asked me if I spoke English but probably wasn't as bad as yours. I failed my first time too but the second time was easier since I wasn't nervous and knew what to expect. Good luck though!
PASSED WAHOOOO FASHAAAOOO
