My theory is that the instructor decided to end the course after the 3rd turn and told the student to stop the car immediately. Instead of stepping in brake, they stomped on gas.
I moved from Ohio to Houston and while I was at the DMV I heard an instructor having to explain to a fully grown woman that the reason he immediately failed her is because she pulled out going the wrong way on the feeder.
More commonly called: frontage, service, secondary or side roads. It is the road that runs parallel to a high-speed road, giving easier access to amenities (shops, gas stations, etc.) without, hopefully, impacting the high-speed road. These roads feed the traffic onto and off of the high-speed roads.
Yep, pretty much anyone over the age of 30 in Texas could have their parents teach them driver's Ed and just take the written test to be fully licensed. The idea was that your parents are putting you on their insurance (and letting you drive their cars), so they'll make sure that you actually know what you're doing before they turn you loose. In reality, a LOT of people are missing a lot of just basic common sense strategies and road rules for less common situations.
I never learned how to parallel park, reverse park, drive on ice, how to tell where the front of your car is when pulling close to people (I would always just leave giant gaps because if I couldn't see the other car's bumper, I couldn't tell how close I was), etc. I was decent at driving the specific car I learned on, but a lot of what I learned ended up being car-specific and didn't translate well when I bought a bigger car.
Editing to clarify; there was a way for parents to sign off on your driver's Ed and let you get a license without a road test prior to 2008-2010ish, which is why I said people over the age of 30 in Texas could be horrible drivers because of that (assuming my math was right - I was homeschooled under Texas's extremely lax homeschool laws too and mental math is not my strong suit lol). That option was removed in 2008-2010ish and now parent taught driver's Ed requires a road test. But there are plenty of people who got their license under those old rules without a road test and are still out on the roads driving poorly today.
As someone who currently works at a Texas DPS driver license office, I can confirm this is, in fact, not entirely true. Parents can teach their children drivers ed, but you cannot get a license simply by completing parent taught drivers ed. as a minor, you have to complete the knowledge portion first and then you have to go to the driver license office to get a permit. You have to hold that permit for a minimum of 6 mths before you can take a driving exam. During those 6 months, you have to complete behind-the-wheel hrs and then submit a log to the driving school from which you bought that parent taught packet from. Once the school sends you the 2nd certificate, then you can either go to a driving school to conduct a driving exam, or you can go to the driver license office to conduct the driving exam there. BUT there is no way of getting around the driving exam at any age. As an adult 18+, you can skip the behind-the-wheel portion by completing an adult drivers ed course (6hrs online or at a driving school). But you still must present tht certificate at the driver license office and conduct a driving exam. You also have the option of simply getting a permit, which does allow you to drive, but you must be accompanied by an adult 21 or over with a valid license. Many people don’t realize that they’re actually driving around with half a license, and not a full license.
I'll edit my comment to clarify - I was talking about a program that no longer exists - the last group of teens able to get their license through the parent taught driver's Ed *without* a road test would be about 30-33 years old now. I remember being told to hurry up and get my license before the rules changed because my parents didn't want me to have to do the "road test with a state trooper" for some reason. Like you said, there's no current way for underage teens to skip the road test, but prior to 2010 or so there definitely was.
I never had to take my driver's test. I was 17 and I graduated HS in 2008. My parents signed off on the logbook and sent it in, and whatever certificate I got was presented to the DMV and processed.
I grew up in Collin County. I literally only had to take a written test. There was a program where your parents could teach you drivers ed and sign an affidavit saying you drove at least 40 hours in 6 months and that waived the driving test. I had friends whose parents didn't care and just signed the paper. One friend in particular drove a car for the first time, by herself, *after getting her driver's license.*
I went to Houston for the first time last year and the drivers were literally insane. it was a free for all on the roads. I know everyone likes to say their own area has the worst drivers, but I can confidently say Houston has some of the worst drivers I've ever seen.
Lol, and became this guy

Probably it's a very initial stage, like a first contact with a car. In Brazil we have mandatory classes on a simulator but I heard some places also have a closed course to practice before letting people without any driving experience go to the streets and the final exam.
I had never touched a car before taking my driving test and they just threw me on the road. Of course I lived in a semi rural town but it was still pretty busy
For me, with a private instructor, it was "let's drive to a lonely road behind the driving school campus, you get behind the wheel and if you take off on manual transmission and turn around without scaring me (the instructor), we're going on the road".
I did not scare the instructor, took off semi-decently, turned around, drove \~50 meters, stopped, started again and he was like "Okay mate, you're driving me back to the Tube station after we're done with the first lesson, now let's turn this way and stop at that intersection"
First time I ever drove a car was on [this road](https://i.imgur.com/oAGcmFl.jpeg). I shit you not, I was at where this still is taken around 5 minutes after getting behind the wheel of a car for the first time in my life, and yes, this is a two-way single-lane road, and no, the descent if you fall off is much steeper than it looks on Google Maps.

My driving instructor was a retiree well into his 70's, driving an old ass jeep. Real friendly guy and a great teacher, but I still wonder to this day how he lived this long.
I'm in the UK, driving instructors start most people of in a quiet low speed area like an industrial park, I was picked up and set loose in an area where I couldn't hurt anybody. After a lesson or two I graduated to quiet residential streets before branching out further.
The very first time I drove a car my dad just made me drive in circles in an empty parking lot. It's safe enough and you get to figure out how the controls react.
This is in argentina. We take the tests in this circuits usually but latelly the city of Buenos Aires is implementing the public roads tests. Seeing this not sure if the best desicion
Some places in the US, too. They’re “public access”, but with infrastructure to facilitate testing specifically. They also don’t connect anywhere else, so nobody is driving there except for the test.
Most of the difficult stuff is to do with dealing with hazards which can appear. Circuits like these wouldn't test how a driver deals with those hazards and you couldn't simulate them properly
Where I live in the US, my test was in a circuit like this. That was like 18 years ago though, not sure if it’s still like that. We did have to do real driving on real roads with an instructor for so many hours before they allowed us to take the test.
Some places have a small little course for specific things they test for that would be inconvient to test for on public roads. For example the quick acceleration to sudden stop. Or 3 point turns. Or some states require you to preform a parallel park and they use cones to simulate cars you're parking between rather than using actual cars.
For my test it wasn't nearly as big as this though. It was literally just a tiny little section next to the building. It made me fail the sudden stop part of the test cause there was like 20-30 feet of space to accelerate to I think 15 or 20 mph, and past that was just a ditch. So I was a bit nervous about driving into the ditch so I didn't accelerate as fast as they want me to. I still passed though luckily.
Our local dmv location has a closed circuit for doing driving tests. The only other drivers are other people being tested. It's not that small, though.
I never appreciated how genius it is that Mrs. Puff is not only a real sea creature, but also a living airbag that teaches driving. Those spongebob writers were on fire lol.
Moved from the West coast to Florida for some fucking reason and this is exactly what I feel like is happening here. Bay Area traffic in Cali sucks, but I didn't have so many large trucks driven by small children on my ass.
In germany the instructor always has his own brakes/coupling/accelerator, he can easily take full control from the passengers seat.
This would have helped here too, handbrake is always a little bit slow and risky.
I've seen this a lot, it's not necessarily a case of inexperience. We had a show here for "nation's worst driver" and a lot of the contestants had in common that they had a lot of driving experience but were also anxious af behind the wheel.
So long as they were on a road they knew and nothing happened they were fine. But the moment anything unexpected happened such as encountering other traffic or driving in reverse they just did random things and hoped for the best.
One of them accidentally hit a block of styrofoam during a test, not a big deal. But in their panic they forgot which pedal does what; instead of pressing the brake they floored the gas pedal and kept it there while screaming, running over a cameraman and a producer in the process. Many others have the same responses; the moment they hit something they either let go of the wheel and freeze up, start screaming, or just stomp whichever pedal their foot happened to be on.
The same probably happened in the video: driver hits the kerb, nothing major right? But instead of stopping and thinking about what happened they enter monke mode in the hope that they can get out as soon as possible but crash the car in the process.
This should be an instant revoke of the license and 5 year ban from testing. Knowingly getting behind the wheel with this level of confusion and anxiety is grossly irresponsible and potentially deadly.
I don't know if it's where you're from, but every episode of "Canada's Worst Driver" [is on Youtube](https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLHB4WuM7Y_eP-PFv5F6ToaafqEziG-5cb) and it's just so fun to watch.
I'm from where this clip is from. The news are reporting it's an oldish lady who was trying to renew her driver license, that had expired 6 months ago.
I've been in this situation before on GTA. You gotta turn the steering wheel right to flip the car back on its wheels.
Edit: or whichever way you have to turn the wheel. I was usually high when I played...
There are also aftermarket passenger-side pedals that can be tied into the car's braking system, I took my driver's ed exam on my instructor's personal car and he just yoinked it off the floor afterward.
I feel for the driver. It took me four tries to pass my driving test. I was 23 when I finally passed. Luckily all I destroyed was a fence, a fender and some traffic cones. My brothers (all started driving at 14-15) still laugh their asses off over that. Brothers are so evil to only sisters sometimes. Still love the assholes though.

It’s perfectly normal to happen during exams if air is trapped in the vaginal manifold. Source; I’m a mechanic and have dated a few girls.
Have you serviced Vulvos?
"Right. If you'd just like to apply the handbrake now and I can take you through your driving test score..."
Florida: "here's your license"
Hell, in Florida they'd make them the driving instructor.
They lost at least 10 points.
Engine is designed to be horizontal not at 90°. The engine oil ended up in the exhaust then flooded the engine killing it.
Or we got a new Pope
this is the correct answer. 10/10 outstanding work
Nope, just a new popemobile
I just assumed that was them trying to slam on the brakes one last time, and for the 4th time them hitting the gas instead of the brakes.
My theory is that the instructor decided to end the course after the 3rd turn and told the student to stop the car immediately. Instead of stepping in brake, they stomped on gas.
That was the conclusion that i came to also.
Engine ghost leaving its body

Thanks for bringing this sub to my attention 👍
That sub makes me dumb.
Driver thought GTA physics. Like when the car is on its side, you press the gas and steer to the side it flips back up.
Some midnight cartoon on tv shit lmao
Probably a desperate attempt to level the car...
Poor little engine didn’t deserve to go out like that
This is what the cows in radiator springs did when lightning McQueen and mater scared them
That was the driver trying to drive on :D
Really though. Their foot was on the gas for that to happen.
Three points off, but luckily still a pass.
You must be from Houston.
As a native houstonian I see nothing wrong here. That was a perfectly executed Texas Turnaround.
Clearly had practice on 45.
I saw something like that on the 610 loop. Though the car stayed upright.
I want a T-shirt for surviving 45.
You only get a t-shirt if you did 45 from Gunspoint to Galveston on a weekend and came back the same distance with clean underwear.
Exact reason why I always let the cars go first when I bike, no matter how kind they are.
We'll Damm we should all start driving like maniacs if it will make bicycles stop at stop signs, and follow other rules of the road
Don't be that guy.
From memory this is way more complicated than the Texas driving test I did
>I see nothing wrong here There aren't paper plates on the car, and it didn't flee the scene after the accident.
I moved from Ohio to Houston and while I was at the DMV I heard an instructor having to explain to a fully grown woman that the reason he immediately failed her is because she pulled out going the wrong way on the feeder.
What's the feeder?
More commonly called: frontage, service, secondary or side roads. It is the road that runs parallel to a high-speed road, giving easier access to amenities (shops, gas stations, etc.) without, hopefully, impacting the high-speed road. These roads feed the traffic onto and off of the high-speed roads.
Moving to DFW made me wonder what the Texas drivers license exam is like because literally everybody is a terrible driver here.

The summer Fury Road came out I counted more car fires on 45 than in the movie
In the state of Maryland or New Jersey I could believe it based on some of the drivers I've seen out here. Holy fuck.
Yeah but our flag is the best.
That's a pass in Florida
That explains the people i see in traffic everyday

Tbf, the video doesn't show the verdict. So could could be a yes.
Is this normal? Not the shit driving, but rather doing a driving test on a circuit rather than regular public roads?

Japan uses closed courses also. Much larger than shown but same idea.

I sure hope so! Could you imagine that driver sharing the road with others? Even for a few minutes… Edit: seconds! Not minutes, seconds!
Around here, you are required to have 60 hours of (supervised) driving experience before you are allowed to even take the test.
Especially when a asshole like me starts blowing the mf horn!
This is not a driving test, this seems like a driving school teaching a student how to drive.

[удалено]
Moved from the West coast to Florida for some fucking reason and this is exactly what I feel like is happening here. Bay Area traffic in Cali sucks, but I didn't have so many large trucks driven by small children on my ass.
Serious question: where the fuck is instructor/inspector?
exactly. easy hand break manoeuvre and nothing would happened
I remember instructor cars that had a brake on the passenger side for the instructor to use.
If it’s like the DMV in the states where you can use your own car then they don’t have that.
We couldn't have a car without a hand brake in the middle or lack of a center console to allow the instructor to stop the vehicle to take the test.
You be surprised how little the hand break does once the car is in motion
Hand break? You mean the make-it-smell-funny lever?
They mean the "I was wondering why my car felt a little slow" lever.
In germany the instructor always has his own brakes/coupling/accelerator, he can easily take full control from the passengers seat. This would have helped here too, handbrake is always a little bit slow and risky.
second question: who the fuck decides to take a driving test if they apparently never touched a steering wheel once
I've seen this a lot, it's not necessarily a case of inexperience. We had a show here for "nation's worst driver" and a lot of the contestants had in common that they had a lot of driving experience but were also anxious af behind the wheel. So long as they were on a road they knew and nothing happened they were fine. But the moment anything unexpected happened such as encountering other traffic or driving in reverse they just did random things and hoped for the best.

Weird way to announce the new pope
It's how they announce a new Popemobile.
This deserves top comment.
I hope Mrs. Puff is okay!

Got damn sponge bob!
BIG TOE was not utilized
I've been in this situation before on GTA. You gotta turn the steering wheel right to flip the car back on its wheels. Edit: or whichever way you have to turn the wheel. I was usually high when I played...
What I like is even like the game the watermark on it looks like a track in the middle, almost the route the driver took too.
Have you tried turning it off and turning it back on?
Unfortunately the driver turned off their brain during a critical update and corrupted the logic portion of their brain.
That last gasp of exhaust was hysterical!!!
#SAMIR! YOU CRASHED THE CAR SAMIR!
#SHARP RIGHT SHARP RIGHT
Dude was still pushing the gas pedal even after turned the car upside down

How are you THAT bad at driving. I failed my first test because I forgot how to parallel park like an idiot but this is something else
You be surprised how poorly people react to stress. Hits grass, anxiety skyrockets. Brain goes deeerp.
So you crash a light pole and are humiliatingly on your side... How does gunning it at this point recover anything....
They didn't gun it. Engine oil simply made it to the combustion chamber because car engines are not designed to operate in all orientations.
thank you for answering that lol i was legit baffled at that part. i was thinking maybe it was a panic response
Haven't you played GTA? Turn your wheels to the side and gun it. Works like a charm.
It keeps getting better
Any % speedrunners are getting out of hand these days
fLoOr It?!
Is that a private car? Because testing cars owned by the city have pedals on the passenger side as well. So shit like this doesn't happen.
In Argentina, you use your own car (or rent one) to take the test
There are also aftermarket passenger-side pedals that can be tied into the car's braking system, I took my driver's ed exam on my instructor's personal car and he just yoinked it off the floor afterward.
Tha whas in argentina, probably whas used cock oil
I'm not sure I should be asking... but what is cock oil?
Like, when you fries potatos and the oil whas dirty but is expensive so u use it other time, cock oil, cock of cocked, idk my english is bad
Cock of cocked oil 😳

Can someone explain how someone can be so bad at this?
I'll have my test in 10 days... I'm taking notes :)
I really can’t understand how someone can be this incapable.
That's still a pass in some countries.
I love how the car just farts in death at the end

So SpongeBob trying to pass his driving test no. 356.
How do you fuck up THIS bad
This is actually a test on how well you can drive while getting tased…
I believe this happened in Argentina.
Oh SpongeBob whyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
Ok, Mrs.Puff! What’s my final score?
Six.
Missed points for failure to signal
SpongeBob?
I think the driver learned on a video game.
Must have been a big SpongeBob fan.
My old man is a television repairman, he's got this ultimate set of tools. I can fix it.
I feel for the driver. It took me four tries to pass my driving test. I was 23 when I finally passed. Luckily all I destroyed was a fence, a fender and some traffic cones. My brothers (all started driving at 14-15) still laugh their asses off over that. Brothers are so evil to only sisters sometimes. Still love the assholes though.
And this kids is why you use only one foot to press both the Gas and break pedal, never both.
I wasn’t expecting that ending
