Something About Driver's Licenses

In Anchorage, Alaska, a man crashed into a wall at the Department of Motor Vehicles, walked inside and successfully renewed his license. Police were called but the man was able to pay for his renewal before they arrived. Police say he was driving while "impaired on medication." In another news story, a South Korean man passed his drivers test after his 272nd attempt. Actually, he only passed the "theoretical" part of the test...he still needs to pass the "practical" part of the test. The 69 year old Korean, Seo Sang-moon, could not read the driver's manual because he is illiterate. Each time he took the test he learned more and more until finally he passed. Way to go, bro! The sucky thing about it is that each attempt cost him 1 million won (C$1,200) in application fees. I'll do the math for you: He paid C$326,400 to pass the theoretical part of the test. Yikes.
