Craig passes NY driving test

British actor Daniel Craig took written and driving tests and sat through a five-hour safety course to obtain his New York driver\'s license, officials said. Craig is the current portrayer of James Bond, a fictional superspy known for his frequent, death-defying car chases with assorted villains. The New York Post said he earned his New York driver\'s license in September shortly before his latest 007 adventure \"Skyfall\" became a blockbuster. Craig passed his written test, then went to Manhattan\'s Professional Driving School of the Americas on 23rd Street to take a five-hour classroom-based safety lesson. \"His assistant requested a special class for Daniel by himself. No other students were there,\" Richard Fernandez, an office manager at the driving school, told the Post. \"He was such a nice dude, so friendly. ... \"No one is exempt, regardless of who you are,\" Fernandez said of the requirements for getting a New York driver\'s license. He then took and passed his road test on Staten Island, the Post said. Craig married longtime New York resident Rachel Weisz last year.
