A Somalian bus driver took up to 200 driving tests on behalf of fellow immigrants and charged them up to £500 a time.
Deeg Mohammed, 27, impersonated hundreds of would-be candidates at a series of exam centres in a nationwide scam netting more than £100,000.
Mohammed assumed the identities of his paying customers before passing the compulsory theory test with flying colours.
The father-of-one was only caught when suspicious officials noticed that a number of bookings were being made using the same credit cards.
After reviewing hours of CCTV footage they eventually found Mohammed sitting fifteen tests in six different counties.
Mohammed, who used his experience as a bus driver to pass, told detectives he felt honour-bound to sit the computerised tests for dozens of fellow Somalis as it was not available in their native language and they could hardly speak any English.
He was sentenced to 12 months in prison after admitting 15 counts of conspiracy to obtain property by deception at Guildford Crown Court.
