Woman takes nine years to pass her driving test

A woman has finally passed her driving test on her 10th attempt.

Dawn Forster has had 1,300 driving lessons costing £7,000 over a nine year period, reports the Mirror.

Dawn from Middlesbrough said: "I'm so used to them saying 'You've failed.' I had to look twice and I pinched myself. It's a wonderful feeling."

She has had three lessons a week, on average, for the past nine years and has been taught by five different instructors.


Her instructor Barry Yale said: "She should have stayed in the car while the examiner finished his paperwork but she got out jumping and crying. It meant a lot to her. I'm thrilled."
