You would probably have been better off requesting a different examiner the first time since that one obviously had anger "issues".

Baltimore gives parking discount to hybrid drivers
BALTIMORE - For months now, hybrid drivers in some areas across the country have been getting access to commuter lanes, but Baltimore is going a step further ÷ offering hefty discounts on monthly parking for owners...

Similarly, many jobs require a college degree just to make sure that you know how to follow rules, not because of any essential information imparted by the college.

Some people are totally incapable of doing whatever it is that driving requires. I tried to teach my friend to drive a few months after I got my license. She would turn, and then keep going without turning the wheel back. This happened over and over again. I was really patient because I knew she was freaking out, but as long as I know her (for the next 5 years) she never learned to drive. She was an honor student and knew the laws backwards and forwards, but would have -- properly -- flunked any actual driving test.

The motorcycle test is even more basic -- drive to the end of the parking lot shifting up through as many gears as you can manage, turn around, repeat.
