‘Absolutely bonkers!’ Driving examiner fails 17-year old due to ‘bits of rubber’ on floor

One Preston driving instructor, who asked not to be named, said: “So many driving instructors I speak to are having problems at Blackpool, it’s happening all the time.

“To fail someone for this is absolutely bonkers and those responsible need to be accountable.

“At Preston, you can question decisions by the examiners and they will explain, but in Blackpool, they take it very personally.”

Mr Turner added: “Not only that, but this is one of the most nerve-wracking things a teenager does, it’s one of those stand-out moments in your life, and this has just made it worse.”
