A woman in South Korea who tried to pass the written exam for a driver's license with near-daily attempts since April 2005 finally succeeded on her 950th time.
The aspiring driver spent more than $4,200 in application fees, but until now she had failed to score the minimum 60 out of a possible 100 points needed to get behind the wheel for a driving test.
Cha Sa-soon, 68, finally passed the written exam with a score of 60 on Wednesday, said Choi Young-chul, a police official at the drivers' license agency in Jeonju, 130 miles south of Seoul.
Now, Cha must pass a driving test before getting her license, Choi said.
