Well, for me it was quite easy to fail. I was 16 at the time, and before I went to take my driving test I got in a horrible fight with my father. I was a nervous wreck by the time I got to the dmv (department of motor vehicles). I felt like I was going to throw up I was so on edge.
I got a snippity little old Asian lady who barely spoke any English, who rode along with me. I kept watching her tick off marks on her little notepad and shake her head while I was driving. For 5 minutes we went off the main road and into a residential area. The failing point came when a large crow (bad omen for sure) landed in the middle of the street so I *gently* slowed to a stop so I wouldn't run the poor thing over. Then she told me I should've kept driving, that it's not necessary to stop for animals in the road because doing so could cause an accident. Then, as we were pulling into the dmv, some senile fuckwit ran a stop sign and nearly broadsided me.
What a shitty day. I was so turned off by the whole thing I didn't retake my test until a year later, and I passed with flying colors. And I didn't have that annoying lady grading my every move.

When I did the quiz tests, the tester examined my responses and said "More than nine Errors" (on a total of 30, the minimum to pass was 3)...
I felt despair, and I thought "So, how much times I'm going to repeat this test to pass it, if the first time i was sure of my responses and i made more than 9 errors?"
So, I read agai my quiz test: the answers was rights, I was sure, so I gived again the test to the examiner, and said him "Please check it again, i'm sure i couldn't made too errors...".
The tester checked again my test, comparing the right column of responses on is desk, and after some seconds said: "SORRY, I JUST MADE A MISTAKE COMPARING THE WRONG COLUMN, YOU ANSWERS ARE ALL CORRECT, NO ERRORS".
I wanted to kill him!!! }:-) But I was happy! :D

My pratic test was on the snow, because that day, 28 February, in my village near Milan was snowing...
I was the last examined, so they didn't have much time, and the entire test last only 5 minutes. The max velocity i reached with the snow was 30Km/h... :D So, in this case I've been much lucky! :)
