Has anyone taken the DGT theory driving test in English?

I've downloaded various theory test questions that are actual DGT questions and only managed to get a high score so far of 21! You need 27 to pass! Friends of mine have done the same and no-one has got more right than me so far!

There seems to be too many questions about motorbikes/good vehicles etc which don't really relate to passing a test in a car!

There was one question that asked how smoking affects driving!! What has this possibly got to do with passing a driving test especially if you don't even smoke!!??

Regards
Gary

When I was worried that the driving licence exchange wasn't going to happen, I started practising on these questions and I agree, they do contain questions covering a wide range of issues - but maybe this is so car drivers learn about and appreciate other road users? Through practice (I probably completed about 15 - 20 tests), I was soon at an 80%+ score, so maybe it's just a question of putting the time in?

I also recall there were some questions on how to drive economically and some basic car maintenance questions, which are useful.

There was no such thing as a theory test when I took my driving test, but I know my two nieces recently passed their's and there was also a section on danger perception - so, maybe tests have got harder since we took ours and we need to accept that...
