Though this needed its own thread.  Anything to do with driving in China.

Anyone want to try the Chinese Driving Test Theory Questions.

I am so glad I live and drive in Australia. That test is a shocker!

Having seen the driving and been on a few white knuckle taxi rides, I am surprised that there is a test at all...Xia is going for her learners test on Friday.  Thank goodness she did not learn in China, despite the different side of the road they drive on (we drive on the correct side) she has no bad habits to bring with her.

I always thought that they were inherited. ;D  ;D

I am going to take the test next Tuesday.  Just to see the lie of the land so to speak.

Jase...

I'm with Willy on this one !!!

When Ming passed her Aussie driving test 9 months ago, she was a model, driver...did everything the proper Aussie way  ;D ;D

Slowly, slowly as time passed, as she got used to her car, got used to the roads and got used to finding her way about, all the old Chinese driving habits slowly re-appeared.

Now, I wont get into the car if she is driving, its not good for my old nerves...and I know sooner or later some great big Wharfie or something is going to get a large dose of road rage from her driving, and if I am in the car also, he is likely to punch MY lights out...not hers..

But then again, is that selfish of me or what ??   ;D ;D ;D

Nor selfish at all David.  Qualifies you as a member of the S P S

Same reason I want to be able to drive in China!

Should be safe if it is inherited.  None of her family that I am aware of drive.  Well maybe some of her cousins but no immediate family.
