Did Lewis Hamilton pass his driving test the first time?
I’m about to take my driving test, and I’m really nervous. My mom told me that Lewis Hamilton—he’s a personal hero of mine—failed his driving test the first time, so I shouldn’t be worried. Is it true that Lewis Hamilton didn’t pass his driving test the first time?

Despite contradictory rumors floating around, Lewis Hamilton claims to have passed his driving test on the first try. But it’s worth noting that he also says he felt extremely nervous before taking his test.
The story goes that Hamilton is a great visual learner. He says he only had three official lessons before taking his test but spent hours preparing by watching his father drive from the back seat. Even without the practice, he was a natural, passing his test on the first try.
Of course, few people are natural-born drivers like Hamilton. Feeling nervous about your driver’s license test is perfectly normal. Just take a deep breath, and do your best! There’s nothing wrong with needing a second try to pass your exam.
