This amusing footage shows a driving school pupil preparing to take a crucial test when she realises she has accidentally climbed into the front passenger seat instead.

The on board CCTV video from a driving school in Guiyang, capital of Guizhou Province in south-western China, shows the long-haired learner getting comfortable in the seat and even fastening her seat belt.

But after a few seconds, the woman wearing a high-vis vest suddenly realises something is not quite right as the steering wheel she is meant to use is on the opposite side.

The mortified woman quickly unbuckles herself and gets out the car, the video shows.

According to her instructor, the blunder happened as the learner prepared to take her all-important driving course test – known in China as ‘Subject 2’ – on 26th November.

As she had not started the engine and the test did not officially begin, the mistake did not affect her overall results, the instructor said.

She passed the test on the day and is now scheduled to take part in Subject 3, which is a road test.

Amused social media users have expressed sympathy for the woman, saying she likely climbed into the front passenger seat out of habit.

Netizen ‘Heishi Wangguo’ wrote: “Don’t laugh. Anyone can feel nervous. I remember my legs shaking uncontrollably while taking my test.”
