>>anyone coming out of the test wanting to drive was considered unsafe & so failed the test.<<
Then there was the test for witchcraft- the suspected witch is dunked in the pond, and if they are alive when they are hauled out, they must be a witch and are therefore burnt.

"... They ne'er cared for us
yet: suffer us to famish, and their store-houses
crammed with grain; make edicts for usury, to
support usurers; repeal daily any wholesome act
established against the rich, and provide more
piercing statutes daily, to chain up and restrain
the poor. If the wars eat us not up, they will; and
there's all the love they bear us."
-- Shakespeare: Coriolanus, Act 1, scene 1
