Be car-ful

So I took my driving test today. Results? Disqualified.
Why? Ran a red light? Hit a pedestrian? 50 mph over the speed limit?
No... on the contrary... I was too slow.
I'm a very cautious driver. Even my mom thinks I'm too cautious... even my mom who is cautious as well thinks I'm too safe.
Some problems she mentioned include braking too soon before a stop light, too far below the speed limit, and accelerating too slowly at a green light. Other problems I notice that I have include following cars way too far back (3 second rule? more like 30... or really 5) and not making turns when there was a big enough gap between cars. In fact, the test administrator actually told me to turn after a certain car at one intersection. Otherwise, I would have waited for the next three incoming cars to pass, at least. I should have realized then that I didn't pass. Aside from impeding traffic due to being too slow, she didn't mark that many errors.
But 20 miles per hour under the speed limit failed me.
I was somewhat surprised to see that I failed; however, the reasons for it didn't surprise me at all.
I suppose cautious doesn't necessarily mean safe.
aww
poor cautious gochee!
sry to hear you failed...though i'm sure you'll pass it a second time^_^
o and don't forget about the mango juice!!!!!!!!
yay!bye!
LMAOOOO. Being a slow driver isn't being cautious. it's being paranoid.
Ummm 20 mph below the speed limit is a little much, I think. I'm a cautioius driver *10mph under the speed limit*
Actually its not being paranoid its being overly cautious, Huge difference there. There is something wrong with being too cautious as Goachee found out but hey its understandable.
To bad Goachee hope you do better next time.
Well...
At least you knew where the windshield wipers were.
at least you didn't kill anyone! like me! if you ever see some short lady walking in the middle of the street chasing a chicken that would be me!!
