 Angry So I just failed the motorcycle portion of the DMV Exam.  I passed the Driving part with flying colors.  But the moto test seemed so .... wrong ...There were questions that, in my experience and reading, didn't have the right answer.  I sat there thinking to myself, "If I were asked to explain how to make an emergency stop min-turn, I could do so, no problem.  But looking at these four choices, none of them really even hit on the money, which shitty answer do I pick?".  Grrrrr.  Well, I guess I have to go back tomorrow.  But this threw and even bigger wrench in my plans, because My Car, and both Bike's Michigan registrations expire today, my birthday.  Since I didn't actually get my NC License today, I can't register them here.  I took the morning off to stand in line, but now I can't.  Pity ME!  Sorry for the rant, just had to get this somewhere.

Yeah, there are answers that aren't quite right. Even when I took the drivers test there were a couple of questions that were wrong. I think one was "What should you do if your car is flooded and won't start" with the answer they're looking for being "put the accelerator to the floor while turning the key".

I pointed out to the person administering the test that while that was true for a carburated  automobile, the last one of those produced was a 1989 Suburu Justy and following that procedure in a fuel injected car won't work. The lady was very nice but pointed out that the test was from a State agency and I shouldn't really have the expectation that it be correct or up to date  laughingdp

Ouch...My wife just called, she failed the written driving exam by 1 point.  The question that put her over the limit was the one about leaky exhaust, she said it would make your car overheat, they were looking for dangerous fumes in the cabin.  Well, looks like we're both going back soon. bang head
