今天的英国新闻，这个英国老太太真狠，考车考了27年，62岁才拿到英国驾照，对比一下，我们年轻人也应该有这样的恒心和勇气，去做事做人。

A 62-year-old woman has finally passed her driving test - 27 years after her first lesson.

Teresa Clarke, of Wroxham, Norfolk, went through 20 driving instructors, spent £15,000 in fees and had 450 hours of tuition.

She also failed 12 tests, cancelled a further 35 and had 50 mock exams.

Now, following her latest effort to ditch her L-plates, on June 26, she is free to get behind the wheel of a car.

"It took a long time for it to sink in when I was told I had passed .I kissed the woman examiner "said Mrs Clarke.

Mrs Clarke, who has yet to purchase a car of her own, puts her success down to an improved focus.

"My concentration is much better now - I don't drink coffee or tea anymore and have no additives," she said.

She said she tried not to think about how much time and money she spent on learning to drive.

"It was over so many years that I was able to spread out the money," she said.

"I've been through a lot of driving instructors because some of them kicked me out. But I was determined to pass and kept going."

正所谓 nothing is impossible to a willing mind.

千万不要碰到这个老太太啊。。敬而远之。。

仔细看看她的学车时间，才400多小时，27年平均一年还不到20个小时，一个月也就2个多小时的课程，放谁身上这样学都要弄个十几二十年的吧？

呵呵, 香蕉你就好象在说我啊? 我02年底就拿临时驾照了,可总也没有动力学车,每年就是夏天天好的时候去停车场让LG带着转两圈, 这5年多了好象平均一年学车10个小时都不到. 这个老太太估计和我差不多, 对学车没什么动力,或者是不想给自己压力, 打算水到渠成的那种, :-) 不过我今年已经痛改前非了, 从上个月初开始坚持每周学3-5个小时, 现在可以去超市买东西或者在市中心转转,打算再学几个月, 争取今年底之前去考试.

我老公临时驾照也有4年了，现在才想起来学。

我也是，最近3个月下了狠心一个星期3个小时，和教练学，今天路考5各小错，吹个小喇叭。

真是极品呢，以前看到过一个也是考了20多年，经历的教练和考官有几十个，花费几万镑。为了庆祝通过考试，请了所有的教练和考官庆祝自己拿到了驾照

临时驾照拿多久必须换？还是不用管？？

临时驾照没有时间限制，理论成绩有效期是两年
