Changes: Unidentified driving test examiner

Revision as of 19:42, 10 January 2011

Ron Weasley: "Hermione couldn't believe I could pass a Muggle driving test, did you? She thought I'd have to confund the examiner."

Hermione Granger: "No, I didn't. I had complete faith in you."

Ron Weasley: "As a matter of fact, I did Confund him..."

This individual was a driving instructor and examiner with the British Ministry of Transport by 2017 and examined driving test candidate Ron Weasley the same year. The examiner awarded Ron with a driving license subsequent to his examination, but only after he had been confunded by his candidate, a wizard. Had the examiner not had this charm performed upon him, Ron would not have been awarded his license, as he failed to look in the wing mirror during the examination. Ron explained, however, that he did not consider this mistake important, as a Supersensory Charm could be used for the very same purpose as the mirror. Ron did not confide his use of the charm during the test to his wife, Hermione Granger.
