It is anything but a smooth ride.

Thank you.
Out of the 16 or 17 people in my group that day, only 3 of us passed on the first try - that included me, the sole foreigner in the group. There was one girl there who was on her 12th(14th? I forget) try and did not pass. I am guessing she is a serious exception - it seemed that most people were passing on their 3rd or 4th try. All Japanese, by the way, so I`m going to guess that it takes an average of 3 tries for ANYONE to pass - not just foreigners.
But hey, if you want to pull a racial discrimination card, feel free to do that.
As for the revenue, etc, etc conspiracies... Why not just
NOT SPEED IN THE CONSTRUCTION AREA??? You can avoid all of it by simply doing that one thing.
Same with the test - there is no conspiracy. Just do what is required and pass the thing and they won`t have the opportunity to get any extra money out of you.
