Dude, you only have to score a 70 to pass. Seven out of ten right. Free to retake the test in five days. Nobody should fail the test. When I was 17 I took it cold and got a 96, IIRC. -XC
Most of the questions have nothing to do with driving but have to do with punitive measures for wrong doing. IE failure to comply with a breathalyzer etc. At times, not exactly intuitive and definitely regionally specific. It sounds like gun laws are similarly so. Perhaps, a class and a test is a good idea? http://www.ncdot.gov/dmv/driver/license/test/sample_test.htm...
Well, the last time there was a test in the south to own guns, it was used to disarm black people. Hmmm, "racist, he explained." More seriously, there is a serious test to get a CCW - and it is 99% about the legal implications of owning and carrying a gun and when to decide to use it. You do have to pass a very lame marksmanship test, but it's no more a test of marksmanship than the driving test is a test of driving. -XC
