Driving test aibu

My DH failed his second driving test today and I am fuming (a little bit with him, but mainly with the woman who’s bloody fault it was 😡)

It has been 2 years in the making with covid making things slower anyway, massive wait times for tests and issues with driving instructors (whole other thread).

He failed because he had a major on an observation.

He had to stop and wait for a car reversing into the road on a corner out of a property, all fine until he was ready to go again, he did his obs and in that time the woman behind him decided he was taking too long and pulled out from behind him to overtake him. The examiner had to tell him to stop ( he obv would have done but he saw her moving before dh did).

That woman’s impatience and dangerous driving behind what was clearly a learner driver makes me so angry.

He now has to retake his theory because it runs out in two weeks, there is a ten week wait on that and then a 24 week wait after that for another test. I could cry.

Aibu to hate that woman with a passion?

Hahahhaa ‘toxic’ what an overreaction. YANBU OP. We can all tell that you don’t mean that.

I'm not sure why you are laughing. I said it was toxic. Hating someone you don't even know with a passion does indeed come from a toxic mindset. We can't 'all tell' OP didn't mean it. Why would we all be able to tell that what OP said was not what she meant?
