Are you going to take your driving test? Find out what your chances are based on your year of birth!
As we know, getting your driving test is not a walk in the park, quite the contrary.
Uneven results in the driving test
Indeed, you must first pass and obtain the Highway Code exam, before moving on to practice and finally being able to drive freely on the road, once you have your license. But did you know that your year of birth could have an impact on your chances of succeeding? In any case, this is what the latest study from the online driving school En Voiture Simone suggests. By analyzing the performance of its candidates, the company chose to classify them according to their year of birth. Note that only the generations 2000 to 2006 were included in this study, each of which had at least 300 candidates. Thus, candidates born in 2006 are the big winners of this assessment, with an impressive success rate of 62.29%. This is the best performance observed in all the age groups studied, placing this generation at the top of the ranking. Behind them, candidates born in 2005 obtain a success rate of 51.96%, a figure which remains very respectable.
Years that change everything
The 2002 and 2001 generations, for their part, display respective results of 50.53% and 50.38%. However, not everything is rosy for all the generations studied. Indeed, the years 2000, 2003 and 2004 showed results below 50% success. Candidates born in 2004 fared best among these three age groups, with a success rate of 47.80%. Candidates born in 2000, with a rate of 46.53%, also show that there is still room for improvement. Finally, young people born in 2003 bring up the rear with a success rate of 45.73%. Although this figure is the lowest in this study, it remains close to that of younger generations and does not reflect a massive failure. The results highlighted by this analysis provide interesting lessons on how new generations approach learning to drive. It is noted that the youngest, such as those born in 2006 and 2005, seem to be doing particularly well.
This trend could be explained by a greater familiarity with the digital and educational tools offered by online driving schools.
