The pass rate is 39% according to research by Reds Driving School and published on womanonwheels.co.za
Some people may feel the UK test is too strict, but it’s even tougher in South Africa. You can’t start until you’re 18, and you then need to pass a yard test as well as a road test. On the road test you can lose points for not checking beneath the car for leaks and not using the handbrake every time you stop. You’ll automatically fail if you let the car roll back even an inch, too. The pass rate is just 39 per cent, and although the test is intentionally hard to improve safety. However, a lot of people bribe or buy their licences which puts a crank in the wheel when it comes to rating.

Wheels24 reports that 60% of drivers fail their tests.
This is an old report but its for the same driving standard and since then, nothing has changed so the data could still be valid
More than 60% of all South Africans who applied for driver's licences in the past two years failed the test.
That's the gist of a written reply from Minister of Transport Jeff Radebe to a question by Democratic Alliance MP Stuart Farrow.
It appears from his reply that the Free State fared the worst with 31.23%, followed by the Northern Cape and Eastern Cape with just more than 33% each.
The pass rate in the Western Cape, North West and KwaZulu-Natal was just above 35%. Gauteng fared best with 46.58%.
