People point out hilarious irony after Little Mix star shares photo after passing driving test

The elation you feel after passing your driving test is like no other - you no longer have to shell out loads of cash on your lessons, you feel like the king of the roads and you're already car shopping in your head.

These days, an obligatory post on social media sharing the good news is also a rite of passage - and celebrities are no different when celebrating their achievement.

Little Mix's Jade Thirlwall shared a post on Friday (23 February) explaining she was finally ditching her L plates after successfully passing her driving test.

She isn't the only one in the girl band to hit the milestone a bit later in life, as Perrie Edwards only got her license in January 2020 while former member Jesy Nelson was seen taking her lessons in November last year.

But it's not like they really needed to learn seen as though they're probably chauffeured around the majority of the time.

Jade also treated her mum, Norma Bawdi, to a brand new Mini Cooper for Christmas back in 2018, so it seems she's well prepared in the car department now she's getting her own set of wheels.

The 31-year-old shared an Instagram post showing her proudly posing with her pass certificate alongside a series of hilarious memes with the caption: "Beep beep b*****s, I just passed my driving test.

"Ty RED and my instructor Kam - our lessons may have ended but our mutual love for croissants lives on. Just need to find a car now teehe."

Fans were buzzing for the chart-topper and praised her achievement in the comments, while her famous pals also gave their congratulations.

Little Mix bandmate Leigh-Anne Pinnock said: "Get it girllll."

This Country star Daisy May Cooper wrote: "Bloody love this- I still haven't passed mine yet - YOU LEDGE."

Singer Pixie Lott added: "Wahoooo congrats Jade !!!! I need to do this thank u for the inspooooo."

And Geordie Shore star Vicky Pattinson commented: "Congratulations gorgeous girl!"

But it was Big Brother host AJ Odudu who clocked that Jade had already made a cardinal sin on the roads just moments after passing.

She wrote: "Congratulations! You're already on a double yellow."

The TV star and other social media users were left in stitches when they noticed that the singer had parked on a double yellow line while on a bend.

According to the Highway Code, motorists are not permitted to dump their cars in either of these places. Oops.

It states: "Double yellow lines indicate a prohibition of waiting at any time even if there are no upright signs."

Rule 242 also explains that you 'must not leave your vehicle or trailer in a dangerous position or where it causes any unnecessary obstruction of the road'.

Drivers are not allowed to stop or park in awkward places, including anywhere that would prevent the emergency services from accessing, on a bend or within 10 metres of, or opposite, a junction.
