Man disqualified after calling coach during truck license test

A man in south China was disqualified after he called his coach for help during his truck license driving test on May 21, thepaper.cn reported.

The man, surnamed Lai, took out his mobile phone while driving, calling his coach to ask about the operation of the truck's lights.

He seems to have forgotten that the vehicle was fitted out with cameras, and his test was being broadcast live back to staff in the supervision center in Nanning, Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region.

Lai was soon stopped from continuing with his test as his phone call was considered cheating.

His results were voided and he has been banned from sitting the test again for a year.
