As for your analogy, a school dropout who failed may actually come
to terms with the realisation that he/she is not made out to be as
capable as others in the academic sense, but of coz it does not
mean he/she is a hopeless or worthless person. He/she may excel in
other fields. For example, if u dislike maths or music, and is
terrible with it, do u think you can be as good as the others? Yes,
practise helps, but you will always be the underdog when u compared
to people who do better than u.
As for driving, please be aware that we are dealing with a very
dangerous hazard if a person cant even control a vehicle well. A
person who kept failing for so many times, you telling me he/she is
'unlucky'? 
A mistake can be fatal!

what i was trying to say was, we should not tell someone to give
up cos she fails many times, she could be a very good driver, but
just that she is slow in learning.
giving more time to practise and forget about how many time she
fails. she could make it eventually.
it doesn't matter how many times one takes to pass, how the driver
drives safely on road is more important.
pass the test and get that piece of plastic is only the stepping
stone to drive on road legelly
i agree a mistake can be fatal
drivers who pass on the 1st test could be more dangerous, as they
may think they are good drivers.
