I have heard that the fork lift test uses a "penalty point" system. How does this work?

Every time you make a mistake during your test you incur penalty points. At the end of the test these are added together and you must not score more than 40. so 41 points is a failure.

During my training days I met a great many people who told me they scored such and such percentage on a practical forklift test. For the record forklift operator tests have never been marked in percentage terms. For a full explanation go here.
