A 69-year-old woman has finally passed her driving test on the 960th attempt, reported the Daily Mirror. Cha Sa-soon, from Jeonju, South Korea, first attempted the written test in April 2005 and after failing it for the first time, she went on to tally up 950 attempts at the written test, at one point taking the test five days a week for three years. Thankfully her practical test only took her 10 attempts and her driving instructor at Jeonbuk Driving School said “when she finally got her licence, we all went out cheering and hugged her, giving her flowers”.
