Baby, I can drive my car.

Finally, I passed my driving test today. It's been an interesting experience overall, doing all the lessons and practice and learning, but I'm so glad that I don't have to do another driving lesson.
It has been raining on and off since Wednesday and it poured last night so I was a bit concerned about the wet roads, but in the end, it was okay. There weren't many other people on the road, which I think was a factor of the 8.45am timeframe and the wet weather. It didn't even rain all that hard.
I only got one non-critical error, when for some unknown reason I slowed down to stop at a green traffic light!
Disappointingly, they only do tests on the weekends and don't issue licences so I won't actually be able to drive on my own until I can get my licence from a Queensland Transport office during the week.
But....it's a great result and I'm very happy. I'm tired though, and I can't wait to do as much nothing as possible tomorrow.
