Woman passes theory test on 950th try

A woman in South Korea has passed her driving theory test after 950 attempts.

Cha Sa-soon has taken the written exam almost every day since April 2005, Sky News reports.

Applicants must score at least 60% to pass the test, but she kept receiving between 30% and 50%.

Cha's attempts at the test are thought to have cost her more than five million won (£2,577). She is hoping that a driving license will help her with her door-to-door business, in which she delivers food and household items to customers.

However, she still needs to pass the practical section of the driving test.

When Cha failed her 771st try in February, traffic police officer Jung-seok said: "I feel sorry every time I see Cha fail.

"When she passes, I'll make a commemorative tablet myself and give it to her."
