Does anyone else think that is a bit short for find potenially dangerous flaws in someones driving.

My test lasted less than 15 minutes, fist time pass with just one Highway Code question...but that was 46 years ago when things were very different.
However, I do think an experienced examiner probably has a pretty good idea of a driver's ability after just a few minutes. The rest of the drive confirming the first impessions.

Good grief....can't remember the colour...you know I'm getting senile but I do remember you got a nice driving licence with a stiff red cover.
Nothing about majors and minors but you did have to drive using hand signals....even on a cold day with the rain lashing down. Ah, such happy memories.
Dave, do you remember those semaphore signals, you remember the ones where you had to thump the door pillar as you drove in order to make them flip out.
