New psychological driving test

[supermono]

According to reports they'll be scanning for character traits that'll lead to risk taking such as "likely to break the speed limit".

It's a shame they don't apply a psychological test to people coming up with this nonsense before they're put into positions of power.

If people can learn the road signs then they can learn suitable answers to the psycho questions too can't they?

Or pay someone else to sit and pass the test for them - Streaky

Excellent. Even Goering didn't think of that one.

I look forward to this test being used for when I want to purchase a new set of kitchen knives - Will I be using them to kill people, or carve up legs of lamb....

it was unclear at this stage whether any charges would be brought against him.

A Hampshire Constabulary spokeswoman said: "He's made it perfectly clear it wasn't intentional."

Brilliant! What a cast iron defence -- next time I'm charged 60 quid for failing to display the correct number on the speedo, I'll make it perfectly clear it wasn't intentional.
