Key legal questions extracted by Omnilex

Whether the presence of the driving instructor in the vehicle during the practical driving test invalidated the failure decision.

The failure decision was upheld; the instructor's presence did not render the examination invalid.

On the available summary, the court found no ground to set aside the test result merely because the driving instructor was present in the car.
