Pretoria - A woman was killed in a freak accident involving a learner driver at the Waltloo testing station in Pretoria, the Pretoria News reported on Friday.

The learner was parking after she failed her test on Thursday and apparently stepped on the accelerator instead of the brake.

Wow, i dont know whether to laugh or cry.
Obviously this is not a laughing matter but i cannot fathom how this could have happened while the instructor was still in the car? There are supposed to be those passenger peddles for the instructor to emergency stop. Why was that not done?
Dont ever give this failed learner a license. Bloody female drivers again

It doesn't say she took the test in the instructor's car. I took my test in my own car which had no modifications for the traffic cop passenger either.

If you want to do the drivers test you have to provide your own vehicle.

You're nervous enough making sure your car does not roll. Not roll over someone!!!
