Wow! I'm (sadly) amazed :/

I'm glad she was caught. These people give us (in general) a bad reputation. But if it's due to these attempts that, bureaucratically, these situations are more and more strict, then I'm all for it. I criticize both actors here: the interpreter who is willing to bend the law and the client for paying and encouraging this type of action (and even getting other clients for her, too - who knows?).
I, myself, have also translated driving tests for English-speaking clients here in Portugal... See more

I, myself, have also translated driving tests for English-speaking clients here in Portugal. Here they have to be translated, not interpreted. We never com into touch/talk/see our client in ANY way. The test is sent from Lisbon by private messenger and the translator is given the test to translate. We have 1 hour to do so and it's all hand-written. Then the translator leaves and the test is immediately handed to the client who is waiting in another room. It's all quite organized and straightforward here in Portugal.
