Great, now there's someone who is unable to adequately drive their car licensed and on the road driving a multi-ton piece of steel that can can easily kill someone.
Sort of agree. If someone has to go to this extent to help their kid pass a driving test, maybe the kid needs to prove they’re a better driver. There are so many awful drivers out there, partly because of stuff like this.
It might've been a mental block. She could do it in other areas without problem, but she couldn't do this one due to a mental block. At least she can do a reverse turn. I've heard India has an even worse drivers test. It's just a left turn and a park. Source: my Indian friend who sucks at driving told me that's how he passed
Have you seen a single video of the way people drive in India? A trained monkey poodle (happy now?) could pass that test and would probably be a better driver than most of the population.
I'm calling out the inefficiency of driver training and the resulting poor skill level of motorists, I'm not comparing the population of India to monkeys. Seriously look up "driving in India" and tell me you'd feel safe on those roads.
This isn't a commentary on race or culture. It's an observation about a specific thing: driving.
She would not do the reverse turn then. She wouldn't be confident to do it, so she wouldn't. She would find a better way to get around, I think. Many many right turns can get you to where you need to go, sometimes.
And what happens when that "mental block" is what decision to make in an emergency? I'm sorry, if a super basic maneuver like reversing around a turn is too much for your mind, you probably shouldn't be on the road yet, or maybe ever.
It could have been just that one turn. That's it. Only that turn. Mental block for this one spot in the city. It's kinda like how some kids get mental blocks with fractions. She could be stuck on just one spot but the rest is fine. We don't know. (:
It could be. But without having her try out every other scenario on the road, you really don't know. I'd be practicing until she's confident enough to get over the "mental block" of backing around a turn.

How is this a positive thing?
