(CNN) - If you see Barbra Streisand driving on the streets of Los Angeles, you might want to get out of the way.
"Late Late Show" host James Corden switched things up on Thursday night's episode of "Carpool Karaoke" by having the music legend be the one behind the wheel, while he sat in the passenger seat.
Within minutes of getting into the car, Streisand told Corden that she recently had to retake her driving test in order to renew her driver's license. But the caveat is that she failed the test three times before finally receiving the green light to hit the road.
"I just had to renew my license, did you know that?" Streisand said. "All of these years our licenses were allowed to be renewed automatically and then last year they said you have to come in for a driving test. It's very difficult, have you ever seen the questions? I had to do the written exam."

I have actually had people say that to me, my response is (even if I do know who they are); “no I don’t, and I don’t give a damn”.
Took my first drivers test on a 1946 Harley-Davidson with an 8 over Springer, great ride around the cones and parking lot.
But they made me go SOOO SLOW.
Maybe she thinks the test will be easier when she moves to Canada. She keeps “threatening” to do that.
#15 What was the house doing on the road? It should have pulled over to let the car pass by...
This is what happens when you live in a fantasy bubble all your live and then get smacked by reality.
All the money in the world can’t buy you a driver’s license, you have to personally make effort to earn it yourself.
I didn’t learn to drive until 24, passed the 1st time. Grandson 17 just got his, passed the first time. Had to use my car. His dad’s stick he partially learned on had a big windshield crack. Had Driver’s Ed.
She FAILED THE WRITTEN EXAM? Oh holy hell, she must be verrrry verrrry stupid. You can get practically half the test wrong and pass.
Maybe she should have checked the box that reads:” Do you know who I am!?”

George Ryan, former governor of Illinois, would beg to differ...
I'd tag the governor with the trauma that the family subsequently endured, as well.
People..people who fail their driving test 3 times ..are the people who don’t g2et to drive.
Dad taught Mom and 5 kids to drive. All of us passes first time. May God bless you Dad. I miss you.
Instead of having BAC tests, they should haul you down to the police station and take a simulated driving test. Many “sober” people would fail and lose their licenses. As well they should.
When I was teaching my children to drive, I took them to empty parking lots and had them drive backwards,under the theory that if you can’t drive backwards, you shouldn’t be allowed to drive forwards.
So far, so good.
I stand corrected... I suppose in some cases like commercial licenses this could be happening. I know there is a big problem with Corruption when it comes to “good old boy” bribery and politics in the towing industry concerning tow truck safety inspections.
What a tragedy...
