It's astonishing that there are people out there who are passing folk like these in their driving license exams, yet the insurance companies are quick to refuse or raise the level for cover of an under21 male etc.

Unbelievable.

That's amazing.

I could have sworn that this was the forum, where men were complaining for weeks about sexism against their driving.
