0 At the beginning of my holidays I went to USA. I decided to try to get02br 00a driver licence. I hoped I wouldn't have bad luck. Several days after02br 00my arrival to USA I went to DMV in New York. I wasn't nervous, I was02br 00rather satisfied. I paid 24$ for the driving licence. I didn't have to02br 00pay extra money or have a check-up. I was only examined with some02br 00clever device. I just had to look in sight and read the letters. That's02br 00all. In DMV I received free driver's textbook with information needed02br 00to pass a theoretical exam. It looked like that: I had to sit in front02br 00of the computer and answer 50 questions. I could have made 10 mistakes,02br 00but I did only 2. I was so happy. After that I had a permission to take02br 00driving lessons. Automatically, the date of my practical exam was02br 00fixed. Since that moment I was driving on the streets, car parks and02br 00practising. The condition was to drive with someone who has the NY02br 00state driving licence. I didn't have to attend this course but I02br 00wanted. After 2 months I entered for an exam with my friend's car. If02br 00somebody hadn't owned it, one could have rented it for 100$. The exam02br 00was very easy, much easier than it is in Poland. The most difficult was02br 00parallel parking, but a parking bay had american size, so I handled it02br 00without a problem. A driving examiner was great. I was driving about02br 00half an hour in the city. Then he ordered me to go to the Subway, so I02br 00did so. It turned out my examiner wanted to buy there a cheesburger,02br 00chips (w amerykańskim angielskim 'fries'), salad and coke. I was very02br 00surprised and I thanked him warmly. My adventure ended with return to02br 00DMV and receiving my driving licence. In my opinion it is easier to02br 00pass driver licence exam in USA than in Poland. 0-
