What it's about: Carolina has driven for twenty years in Santiago without a single fine, but to swap her Chilean licence for a Norwegian one in Stavanger she must pass the same driving test as Norwegian teenagers. A laconic instructor and a polite examiner teach her that the slow old man coming from the right always wins.

Carolina Ríos hadde kjørt bil i over tjue år, de fleste av dem i Santiago, en by der hornet brukes omtrent like ofte som nordmenn sier unnskyld. Hun hadde solgt medisinsk utstyr til sykehus over hele Chile, hun hadde kjørt gjennom jordskjelv, demonstrasjoner og snøstorm i Andesfjellene, og hun hadde aldri fått en eneste bot. Derfor tok hun det med knusende ro da hun flyttet til Stavanger med mannen sin og fikk vite at førerkortet hennes ikke var godt nok.
