Aatha, naan fail aayiten!

NJ driving knowledge test is supposed to be one of the toughest in the US.

Yeah, I have to say that! coz, I flunked :)I did read the manual, but should admit that I went a little over-confident. According to me, the common-sense should be able to help in this exam.
But, guess it was not enough. Or, rather I did not have enough :)

For those who are not aware of the NJ-DMV process, it is an online test for 50 questions and you have to get atleast 40 correct.Ironically, I got 39 :(

Some of the questions that bowled me out:
When is the road most slippery?1. After the first few mins of rain 2. After a heavy rainfall3. After a storm4. All of the above
When the car skids, which side will you turn the wheel? (I skipped this qn to be answered later, and see what I got next)What is the first thing you do when the car skids?

My expression was...
Venaam! Azhudhuruven!
