    Hubby just failed his permit test for the second time and u don't know who's more frustrated him or I. He knows the info but the test question wording keeps messing him up. He just went back to try again. He already has a company lined up but needs to pass this test!

    If he knows it, tell him to quit getting caught up in the wording and use some common sense.

    Which part of it that he is having issues with? I had trouble with the air brakes portion of it. I believe it took me two or three times.

    The thing that worked for me was to read it out in the parking lot and then go in and take the test right away while it was fresh in my head.

    What state is he testing out of?

    If he failed it twice and he has taken it twice... I think he has to wait a period of time to retake again.
