Sienna Miller finally clears driving test

London: Actress Sienna Miller is happy she passed her driving test because she doesn't have to depend on chauffeurs and taxis to travel any more.
Miller passed the test on her second attempt and spent $60,000 (Dh220,200) on a sports car to celebrate.
Contactmusic.com quoted her as saying: "On my first test, they asked me to reverse into a bay of cones. I put my foot down, reversed at high velocity and completely flattened the cones. I did the girlie thing and burst into tears but the instructor was having none of it. He told me to get out of the car and apply for another test."
