The stress of passing your learner's licence can be quite intense and it really is a right of passage for some kids.

Thankfully there is a bit of good news!

According to a new study failing your learner's test first time could mean you're destined for success. A new study was done on over 1500 drivers to see how many had passed their learner's licence the first time and less than half of the graduates pass their tests the first time around.

The study also revealed that those who go on to own a company tend to take more than two pass attempts, on average, before being allowed to hit the roads.


We asked you is you passed your test on the first attempt. This is what you had to say.

So how well do you really know the rules of the road? Do you remember them from your test?
