The <\/i>Book Theory Test Today<\/i><\/b> blogger examines some of the extreme lengths that <\/i>theory test<\/i><\/b> candidates go to in order to \u00e2\u20ac\u02dcachieve\u00e2\u20ac\u2122 a pass mark.<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Did you know? <\/b>On average, five learner motorists per day try to cheat their way through the driving theory test<\/b>. Last year alone five candidates tried to offer exam invigilators bribes, while 12 were reported for violence towards test centre staff and a further 175 were involved in verbally abusing personnel.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Book Theory Test Today<\/b> bloggers says: \u00e2\u20ac\u0153I remember being 17-years-old (it was a while ago now though), I was desperate to pass my theory test<\/b> as it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s the first hurdle and passing it motivates you to pursue your driving licence. However, cheating never entered my mind, probably because mobile phones were built like bricks and because I was always taught cheats get found out.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d<\/span><\/p>\n

However, while my conscience is clear there are those that think about, and go through with, cheating on the theory test<\/b>. Our advice, don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t do it! You\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ll be nervous enough without adding to those nerves by trying to conceal deceptive behaviour.<\/span><\/p>\n

Here\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s what NOT to do when it comes to taking a theory test: <\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

#1 <\/b>\u00e2\u20ac\u201c Don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t wear a mask<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

No! We\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re not kidding, this actually does happen. Yes, passing your theory test <\/b>can be challenging, but we don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t recommend asking your best mate to put on a latex mask to impersonate you in order to pass the theory test<\/b> on your behalf, it doesn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t work. <\/span><\/p>\n

Just ask Guillaume De Vendrines, a gentleman in his 30s, who turned up at a UK theory test<\/b> centre wearing a latex mask trying to pass the exam on behalf of a 60-year-old candidate. Erm…interesting!<\/span><\/p>\n

What happened? De Vendrines was convicted of fraud and fined \u00c2\u00a31,500 by Croydon Magistrates Court.<\/span><\/p>\n

#2 \u00e2\u20ac\u201c Don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t send someone else, especially if they don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t look like you<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

Some theory test<\/b> candidates think exam invigilators are idiots. It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s not uncommon for learners to send \u00e2\u20ac\u02dcringers\u00e2\u20ac\u2122 in their place to take the theory exam. But, if you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re going to do it at least send someone who looks similar to you.<\/span><\/p>\n

This wasn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t the case for 26-year-old, Ali Mohammed from Birmingham. He hired a \u00e2\u20ac\u02dcringer\u00e2\u20ac\u2122 to take his 19<\/span>th<\/sup><\/span> theory test<\/b> for him after growing frustrated with his failure to pass. However, the guy he sent looked nothing like the picture on Mohammed\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s provisional licence, whoops!<\/span><\/p>\n

What happened? Mohammed was handed a nine-month prison sentence, suspended for two years. In addition, he was ordered to do 200 hours community service. Turned out to be quite a costly theory test <\/b>and still without a pass.\u00c2\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

#3 \u00e2\u20ac\u201c Don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t use mobile devices<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

Impersonation is \u00e2\u20ac\u02dcold-school\u00e2\u20ac\u2122 so; more crafty candidates have resorted to technology. One unemployed \u00e2\u20ac\u02dcentrepreneur\u00e2\u20ac\u2122 saw an opportunity, concealing hands-free kits under the headscarves of candidates and charging \u00c2\u00a3500 to provide theory test<\/b> answers.<\/span><\/p>\n

What happened? Orchestrator Michael Babayan, 49, was jailed. How was he discovered? Well, when more and more candidates were turning up at certain test centres wearing headscarves, staff became suspicious.<\/span><\/p>\n

So, there you have it, three things not to do when your theory test<\/b> day arrives. Let\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s face it failure means you can take it again, whereas cheating could cost you your freedom.<\/span><\/p>\n
