You've passed - not really

A learner from Romford, Essex, passed her test with only five driving faults. Four hours later a fed up Cara Griffiths got a phone call from the DSA telling her that the test was invalid!
A DSA spkesman said:
"We apologise for what was a genuine mistake. The examiner missed out one of the manoeuvres which made the test illegal."
"We have offered a free re-test and will bring someone in especially for this so the candidate is not waiting weeks."
"We would like her to get in touch as soon as possible. We are very sorry and understand how disappointed she must be."
Read the press reports in the Daily Mirror or the Romford Recorder.
How must poor Cara feel? Lets hope she passes as soon as possible.
A fail cannot be overturned. Even if it can be proved that the fail was wrong, it's still a fail. It's funny that this doesn't work the same when someone has passed?
