From the LVRJ: The Nevada Department of Motor Vehicles reported Monday that after three days of accepting applications for the new Driver Authorization Card, the failure rate on the written test is 71 percent.
This is 14 points above the average for those taking the driver’s license test, the agency reported.
Those passing the written test did well on the skills exam, achieving a 70 percent success rate.
The card allows qualified Nevada residents who are not U.S. citizens to legally drive in Nevada. The California Highway Patrol also said on Friday it will accept the cards for Nevadans driving in that state.
For the first three days of the program, which started Jan. 2, the agency administered about 500 written tests per day across the state for those seeking the card.
In some cases, heavy turnouts forced the agency to turn away applicants because driver examination capacities had been reached. Additional applicants were turned away for not having proper documentation.
“We are seeing a few early trends,” said DMV Director Troy Dillard. “Test scores are improving on the re-tests and the applicants are doing better on the driving test than they are on the written test.”
Dillard said the program is working the way DMV hoped it would. http://www.reviewjournal.com/news/driver-authorization-card-seekers-struggle-written-test
Hmm, the program is working the ay the DMV hoped? A 75% failure rate is what they envisioned?
Clearly, the illegals have not been studied for the test and we have to worry that they will demand that the illegals need an easier test to pass and if they don't the easier test, the illegals will claim racism against the DMV for making the test too tough.
It was a stupid idea to begin with to give illegals these driving privileges and it will remain stupid from here on out.
