My son has taken his test 5 times now and failed, he is working for a plumber as an apprentice and his boss really wants him to drive. however he got drunk the other night took his car and smashed it into a lamppost. he got arresed and he is in court next week. he has been told he is looking at a years ban and a heavy fine. he feels he cant be honest to his boss as his trial period is nearly up, and matey is looking for a reason to get rid of him. can anyone think of an excuss what he can say for the next year. He cant keep saying he hasnt passed for that long surely,

The fact your son has failed his test " 5 TIMES " proves he was not fit to drive in the first place so what was he doing behind the wheel ?
Drink Driver`s are low life scum !
And what are YOU doing coming on here trying to find an EXCUSE for him ? ( a great roll model parent you are )
What would you have done had he killed someone ?
I hope your son Loses his job , And go`s to prison hopefully for around 12 month`s to teach the low life a lesson !
If he manages to stay out of prison i hope he loses his job get`s a large fine and ends up in prison because he can`t pay the fine cause he has no job and YOU end up having to pay it for him because you seem to think that it is OK to do this !

I'm with most of the rest, WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU THINKING? If you don't tell the truth now it will come back harder then telling it for how it is. If he gets fired then its his fault for being so irresponcible to drink and drive. I've have friends and family killed by drunk drivers, and ya, A YEARS SUSPENTION AND A BIG FINE ISN'T BIG ENOUGH!!! Take some responcibility and tell him to take responcilbility for his own actions. If his boss finds out he has lied he'll wonder what else he has lied about and all trust will be broken, and then the boss will have an excuse to get rid of him. Just be glad your son was not killed, and hope he's not when the MADD crowd finds out about him.

To be honest with you, my friend was nearly killed and is scarred for life after being hit by a drunk driver. A lamppost? there were some lucky people out there that night. I realise that this isn't giving you the great excuse that you want, but I find it a little hard to take the question seriously. I suppose it all comes back to that thing of learning life's lessons.

Quite frankly I'm not surprised they are wanting rid of your son if thats his attitude.
Personally I hope he gets prison as well as a ban. He could of killed some poor sod. As for losing his job, if he was my employee he'd definately be given the boot.
You do realise the case will probably be in the local paper anyway so no point in trying to be clever.

Its exactly idiots like your son who destroy families and ruin innocent lives. Your lucky it was a lamppost he crashed into and not a young mother and her child or an elderly person with a walking stick.
And you, his parent, wants to cover up for him? For shame.
A heavy fine and a years ban is the very LEAST he should get.
The truth will out..... hopefully!

Tell him he doesn't have a brain and is so utterly stupid that he is unable to do a simple thing like drive responsibly. He should gouge out his eyes and say he was blind drunk. Really what twats you both are. God willing he will get the sack go out and get drunk and get run down by a fellow ****.

when and if he does pass his test his boss will need his licence anyway in order to get insurance for the company.i think he should come clean and be honest now because the lies with definately revel themselves in the future

get him to say that he had a bad crash few years ago and get very nervous behind a wheel, BUT your son will be better of if he sat the exam, REMEMBER PRACTISE MAKE PERFECT! your son just needs to find out why he keeps failing, study this area and do it again,

he wont get company insurance now even when he does pass they will see him as a risk and at his age they wont touch him.
tell the truth.
but as a biker and car driver ive seen what drink driving does.
i would not be helping my son if he did that ide break his fooking legs.

Tell the truth and he will probably lose the plumbing job. This is the lesson your son must learn this time. Do it!
