Passed driving test but didn’t realised new drivers are treated like sh*t

So i started shopping for cars but the dealers i visited won’t allow me to test drive after knowing i am a new driver… some put me on passenger seat and drove for like 3 mins and ask me if i like it. If you don’t trust me, as a buyer i won’t trust you either, trust goes both ways.

I also wanted to hire a car but rental companies won’t allow as minimum requirement is 1-2 years of license. I am all alone and I don’t have anyone to do the test drive for me and i am looking for a car on 15k plus budget so dealers won’t let me test drive saying it is risky, how does this work really, some advice will be appreciated, thanks

Why are dvsa examiners being payed so little (minimum wage) when they’re the key players bringing revenue to DVSA? 😉 (dvsa revenue over £400 mil yearly from test booking only)

They’re basically salesmen, if they don’t create loyal customers the business fail. 😂

Just a bid of fun to boost mood of people who failed their test recently. In all seriousness, driving safely is crucial and you must take driving test as seriously as you do for your school exams or uni exams, all the best.
