Man who failed driving test 10 times fails in appeal bid

A MOTORIST who failed his driving test 10 times has been met with another failure — this time appealing his latest failed test in court.

“I don’t think I will ever pass a test in this country,” Raymond Heffernan told Cork District Court as Judge Tim Lucey rejected his appeal yesterday.

Mr Heffernan, 61, of Mayfield, Cork, did his latest test on May 25, and while one category three fault — dangerous or potentially dangerous — would have been enough to fail him, he committed five. He also had 19 category two faults, which are serious transgressions.
