If you must engage in corruption, please don't go and boast about it. Are you trying to promote corruption and make everybody more corrupt? This will make your country a better place to live in?

People who pay (or receive bribes) should be so ashamed of it, they never mention it to their family or friends. Like the farmer who screws his sheep when nobody is looking. He doesn't go blabbing about it in the pub.

I too failed my first parking test due to the clutch problem. But my opinion is exactly the opposite of yours. It was my fault for not having enough skills to overcome that bad car. Now, many many years later, and after driving many worse cars and trucks, I know that a proper driver would not have been so easily "defeated" by those bad cars at the testing center.

In the real world, there are cars and trucks, with bigger problems. There are those where you have to bang many times to get into reverse gear. There are those that are missing the 3rd gear entirely (spoiled, but not yet repaired. And the boss is not going to spring for a new gear box until the truck is completely immobile. ). There are those where you're happily driving along in 4th gear, and it'll suddenly pop into neutral.

I have a motorcycle license as well. And there are bikes (in the "real world") with shaky handle bars / front wheels. There are those where the foot brake does not work. And the handbrake only slows you ever so slightly. Handle bar grips that pops out of the handlebar if you pull it too hard. Imagine that happening when you're making a turn.

Of course if you only ever drive your own car, you'll never see these problems. But that driving license you get after you past the test supposedly says that you can drive any vehicle.
