Well, I’ll say this much: La Poste is running efficiently this week. It took just 24 hours for the post office to deliver the results of yesterday’s practical driving exam. I passed! In fact, it appears from the notification as though I got a perfect score. Now I just wait to receive the actual license (permis de conduire) in the mail; in the meantime, my test report serves as a temporary license. Wow. I can’t tell you what a huge relief this is to me.

Hi Leesa,
No, I live in Paris, but I took my driving test in Nanterre. The driving school I attended was in Suresnes, and at the time I took my driving test, Nanterre was the closest place to the school where I could do that.
Cheers,
Joe
