“Obviously failed to read the sign that explicitly says ‘walk-in’ not ‘drive-in’.”
Another user jokes : “Drive thru drive tests 🤣”
A fifth user : “They thought the sign read “Drive-in walk tests.” It’s an easy mistake to make.”

One asked : “For Which violation was the instructor cited for? Negligence? Using phone? Failure to brake? Failing to put car jn park or neutral?.”
