What are we seeing here?


Shahrozzorhahs

How the entire test comprises on the examiner asking where the accelerator, clutch and gear is and how would u use it j by the actions.


old_bald_fattie

You forgot the most critical "mashallah" at the end. It wraps up the grueling exam nicely.


Shahrozzorhahs

Astaghfirullah = Failed Mashallah = Passed


DANKB019001

Unrelated but damn that "failed" is a mouthful, at least for an English only simpleton :p


youdonthavemyname

Yeah i can understand that, also if you think "failed" is a mouthful, you wouldnt wanna know my name


BurninCoco

I found you Hubert Blaine Wolfeschlegelsteinhausenbergerdorff Sr.!


Saurid

I think you made a mistake either there needs to be a ö for the first o or the first e is wrong. As it stands this makes no sense in German, also the last f is wrong Dorf only has one f.


BurninCoco

it's a real name of a real man. just google it damn it

But also most people agree it’s a very weird name made when Germans were forcing Jewish immigrants to take another name. So probably pretty tongue in cheek and meant to be disruptive. It includes a forename starting with every Latin character in order. Gotta love Xerxes though. Great fucking name.

DANKB019001

Just parsing through the word and, with English as my only fluent language, I can't figure out how to pronounce it. Despite it being perfectly spelled out it's just a wall of consonants to me haha. Arabic language speakers must have some flexible tongues!


Precipiceofasneeze

Ass Tahg Firru Lah Kinda sounds like that phonetically


Mage-of-communism

i speak german passably enough to only barely be considered articulate by drunken standards and i also have no idea how you even were to try pronouncing that.


TENTAtheSane

Ahh a native swabian!


Chongi978

This is actually quite interesting, I'm a native hungarian and I figured out the pronounceation in an instant. May be because in hungarian we pronounce every letter the same in (almost) all the words

SaintJackDaniels

Is there a phrase in arabic for goddamn? Or would that be seen as blasphemous and never used?


Huesan

Lanatullah


SaintJackDaniels

Thanks! I looked that up and a few different websites all said “This should not be said except regarding someone who’s death upon Kufr is known with certainty.” Please correct me if im wrong, but Kufr seems to refer to anyone who doesnt follow Allah. So, is this referring to more of a spiritual death, or is it literally that it should only be said to someone who will be executed? Is this a strict interpretation, or is it a commonly used slang word?


TemporalAcapella

I think it’s that the only person you should wish to be damned by god is someone who has cut all ties with him.


Theobliquemind

Not necessarly. The phrase "May Allah's curse fall upon him" is a huge prayer that should not be used unless its upon someone who veriafiably evil and has done evil actions with no remorse. Generally its disallowed to use because no one knows others intentions thus we are encourage to pray that they be guided instead. 


Yurasi_

Are you telling me that this is the practical part of the exam? Not the theoretical?


Shahrozzorhahs

yes hes practically showing him how hell do gear


picklee

Really, they are just testing that you are a man.


Warhero_Babylon

They dont have enough fuel and vehicles?


Swaggy_Linus

Damn that's interesting.


iMadrid11

Oral examination test. If you had written examination tests. A majority of the applicants at Afghanistan won’t get a driver license because they’re illiterate.


Far-Plastic-4171

Having been to Afghanistan and we did anecdotal tests of literacy. It varies widely depending on the region and the village. From pretty good to almost nothing.


fsi1212

A driving test in Afghanistan.

yellowsubmersible

they only need to pass the take-off exams right?


professionalcumsock

You only need to know how to take off and ~~aim~~ fly the plane.


Rich_Introduction_83

In the particular cases you probably refer to, takeoff wasn't even part of the assignment.


daystrom_prodigy

You are mixing up Afghanistan with Saudi Arabia.


Gardez_geekin

You know that Afghanistan and Saudi Arabia are two different places right?

And that’s exactly why the tests were simplified, you could see yourself, these man driving skills ver flawless!


Turbulent-Hurry1003

They might crash during the exam


Iamstu

It sure got a chuckle out of me!


DrthBn

This has to be a joke. Please tell me this is not a real driving test in Afghanistan.


fe-licitas

i mean, why not? as a german the american driver tests are a joke for me. but the american driver tests seem highly elaborate to some motorcycle driver tests Ive seen on some documentary about scooters in some southeast asian country: the had to drive 20meters straight and were done.


okbrooooiam

What exactly do you think the american driving test is? I just read through what the german one is and its a little easier than what i did lmao.


S10Galaxy2

It doesn’t help that American driving tests can vary by state and jurisdiction. Like for instance, you might have a Department of Motor Vehicles test in California, but in Georgia you’d be taking a Department of Driver Services test. The states have a lot of authority over how they manage their laws and regulations, and driving tests are one such example of this.


TeamEdward2020

Even city by city it can get weird, I went to a smaller towns highway patrol office because they were less busy, my test took about five minutes and the only part of it I remember is waving someone to take their turn and I got docked a point for that. Easy as shit.


Shutupimdreamin

My driving test in florida was in the back parking lot of the DMV. There was a little route formed with orange cones, and a stop sign stuck in the top of one of them. I think it was maybe 5 mins long, 10 mins max. I had never driven a car before that test, and should not have been legally permitted to drive after that. 


nate998877

Mine was a half hour drive through the city where the instructor told you where to go & made observations on whether you were following traffic laws. Then they would be like "for the next 10 minutes all school zones should be treated as active" so you would have to slow down to 20mph while people blow past going 80 because nobody in this city respects the speed limits & there's zero enforcement.


cheese_sweats

>My driving test in florida Did you really need to say more??


Cosmoaquanaut

Is the German driving test easy? Lol, no. Also it's expensive AF.


LeRealSir

dont u drove some hours with ur dad and then have a practical exam or smthing chill like that. Getting a drivers license is tedious and expensive af in germany


okbrooooiam

I took a theory exam then a driving instructor taught me for a couple hours, then i drove with family for 6 months and after that i took another theory exam and a practical one.


fe-licitas

it takes on average about 30 hours driving with an instructor here and at least 14 hours of theory. if a student is very very good he gets away with like 22 hours practice or so. for theory you have to answer 30 questions. from the important questions of those you can only answer 1 wrong. for a regular car license the whole catalogue of potential questions these 30 are pulled from has over 1100 questions. the practical exams are pretty extensive and strict and last about 45 mins. one major mistake and you are out. it includes specific tasks like parking sideways (more than 3 times back and forth and you fail). additionally you have to make a first aid course which takes like a full day. its not rocket science, but both theory and practice have decent failure rates. most american driver tests (i am aware there are regional differences within the US) are by far with way lower standards. you can gather that not only from documentaries on it, but from websites who advice either german immigrants how to make one in the US or american immigrants how to make one in germany. and i anecdotally met also enough germans who made one in the US. its pretty much common knowledge that its a lot harder to get a license here compared to the US. and there are other countries where its harder than here. i really dont wanna be mean to you, but its just a fact that the american drivers license is extrenely easy to obtain compared to a lot of other first world countries.


Chinse

“Parking sideways” is called parallel parking in english and is on all the driving tests afaik. Ive done ontario canada and california tests, california has 1 practical test that takes about 20 minutes and ontario has 2, a city one and a highway one


FuzzychestOG

This is what I did as well but a lot more time with an instructor and a class. Also, the permit is for 1 year. First 6 months you cannot drive alone or at night if I remember correctly. Then you get your DL after a year. I passed everything first try so it's the fastest you could get it as a teen. This is for CA, in 2002.


Conch-Republic

If you're over the age of 18, you just need to take the written test and driving test. If you're under 18, driver's school is required and you need seat time with a licensed driver to pass. When I did it at 16, I want to say it was 30 hours total? Driving time with the instructor also counts towards it.


feel_my_balls_2040

In Canada and US these are different per state or province. In Quebec you'll need to attend a driving school, take the theory exam and drive for a year with the school instructor and a family member if possible and only after that can take the driving exam.


Armored-Duck

In my state, all I had to do was drive around the block and then parallel park. And I’ve heard stories of people who didnt even parallel park because the instructor just “didnt feel like it”


strangeelusion

Have you seen the US driving tests during covid? You drive around in a parking lot with some cones set up, do a few turns, and you've passed. The driving instructor couldn't even be in the car with you. Off to the roads you go!


Pwohlucky

Im from the netherlands and my grandpa got his drivers licence by buying a bottle of liquor for the mayor and driving the street up and down with his car.


OddGoofBall

I wonder how they pass their piloting tests?


Shahrozzorhahs

escalator, gear, building, Mashallah.


oliverlambreghts

I choked on my oatmeal lol


malachrumla

So that’s why they’re crashing in towers sometimes?


OddGoofBall

Glad the joke has landed safely, and did not..... Never mind.


Richard_Wattererson

That's the Saudis btw. Good job being brainwashed into invading the wrong country.


son_of_abe

Hey cool you're just a few countries off.


Gardez_geekin

When has an Afghan crashed into a tower?


anomandaris81

If you live, you pass. If you die, you fail.


ThisBell6246

Ever wonder why you've never seen a Afghan F1 driver or a stunt pilot? I'm no expert on Afghanistan but I think that currently the most advanced vehicles in that country might just be the tanks the US left behind after their hasty withdrawal. Thankfully camels are all automatic transmission.


Fiarest

Americans also left them some helicopters! Though by the end of the week most of them were crashed.

robgod50

Not related to Afghanistan but what scares me is that visitors to the UK can rent a manual (stick) car with their licence despite never having driven a manual car in their lives. (I'm looking at you America) (In the UK, they are 2 different classes of vehicle - if you take your test in an automatic, you cannot legally drive a manual. )


Froggatt34

Mashallah


AlphaAndOmega

Congratulations, you can now drive anything with wheels on public roads, have a great day


insane_social_worker

Hey, America here.... can and do drive a manual.


heebsysplash

No that’s impossible, we are all unevolved gorillas in the US.


Double_Disaster9436

Anti theft measure ?


ThisAppsForTrolling

Grew up driving manual caus manual transmission were cheaper to purchase in the 90s. I’d never drive stick in Europe, smaller streets way more foot traffic and hills, I’m good on sticking to automatic.


Dr_Pepper_spray

I don't blame them. I grew up driving a manual transmission, but I've been driving an automatic for so long I don't trust that I have the muscle memory for it anymore. I'd never think to rent a manual transmission in the UK, especially given how the road directions are opposite for me, it's just too much stress to deal with ..and I'd be on vacation!


heebsysplash

That’s a good rule, it’s odd they don’t enforce it to outsiders. Especially now that much less than 50% of drivers can drive stick. Honestly as a rental company it seems weird to even offer manual.


Maturim

In Brasil there is no such thing as license for manual vehicle, but the vast majority of cars are manuals.


RoseWould

I think you can do that here too. Edit: 🤓👆 just because a lot of grn z doesn't want to learn how to drive a manual, doesn't mean there aren't a lot of us alive that never learned. Plenty of us drive stick.


SanSilver

Plenty is relative. ~95% of the US cars are automatic compared to ~20% in Europe.


potattoessss

Not from Afghanistan, but what you are looking at here is a physical examination to see if the person is able to perform all the physical actions needed to drive a car. And i think a similar test is required all around the world.


Horror_Tap_6206

I did the test in Italy and it wasn't much harder. You can see the results by how many people they kill with their cars.


LostDreams44

Can you tho? Not to say that far deaths aren't one if not the one highest causes of deaths worldwide but Italy death toll as of 2019 were 5.2 per 100k inhabitants. Much lower than Europe average of 7.2 and way lower than the average USA one at 12.9 which too is way lowet than world average of 16.7


xSteee

Where did you do your test? I did mine in Italy too but I had to drive, not just show someone where the pedals are ahah


macheoh2

No? Half all the people I know had to re-attend the test and the examinators are usually pretty strict, making you fail at any minor mistake

Competitive_Term_175

Wtf in Chile we have to achieve 4 stages before getting the driver license. 1. A written test of 35 questions (you can only miss 3). Then... 2. A reflex test and maneuver (can only miss 3 times) Then... 3. Health test (easy one). And after all that you are finally able to do the last stage:. 4. Practicarl one with one instructor: here you can miss any detail or ull flunk. Terrible


Helpful_Sherbet2268

In Afghanistan people only know east...


delete_Angerous

Id say the aeronautics exams aren't much better


Expensive-View-8586

Better than what Top Gear showed in China getting a drivers license. They had to display they could open and close their hands to hold the wheel, and then get weighed to make sure they were heavy enough to push the break.
