A grandmother from South Korea has finally passed her triving test on her 960th attempt.
The 69-year-old whose name actually means "vehicle" in Korean had taken her driving test 5 times a week for three years and twice a week after that until she finally passed having attempted it almost 1000 times.
Cha Sa-soon, 69, whose surname coincidentally means "vehicle" in Korean, is now appearing in a prime-time advertisement for Hyundai, Korea's largest carmaker.

Now that brightened my day, but really good for her. I think I'm going to save this on my laptop and bring it out whenever I get ready to give up. Really 960th, this had better not be a typo and actually be 96th. Then again thats alot too.

If you don't pass by about the 5th time you shouldn't be allowed a license, because your obviously not going to be safe
