Think she may have failed: Learner taking test drives car into the Pacific after misjudging a bend

Taking your driving test is a nerve-wracking experience.
But spare a thought for this hapless learner who failed her test after losing control of her car and crashing into the Pacific Ocean.

Angela Castro, 35, was taking her exam in a pick-up truck in Antofagasta, Chile, when she misjudged a bend and drove straight on instead of applying the brakes, the learner then hit the accelerator pedal, smashing through a metal barrier and diving straight for the ocean.

As the car began to sink into the water examiner, Edgardo Aguilera, managed to scramble free and emerge relatively unscathed.

But eyewitnesses watched in horror as Ms Castro struggled to undo her seatbelt.
She was only saved when a heroic passer-by jumped into the ocean and managed to free her.
