Gabrielle Mayor got the surprise of her life at a DMV when she discovered her mom's typo.
Gabrielle Mayor was 15 years old when she uncovered a hilarious family secret.. “I can’t even explain how excited I was to be able to drive.“I felt like I’d been waiting my whole life for that moment,” she says.“The guy asks for my social security number and I give it to him. He puts it in the computer, and he's like, ‘I’m not seeing a Gabrielle Mayor,” Mayor recalls.
Mayor repeated her information, hoping that would resolve the issue, but her name and her social security number still didn’t match.Mayor’s mother, Ellyn, let out an audible gasp followed by an, “Oh, no!"That’s when Mayor learned about a typo on her birth certificate. To induce labor, Ellyn Mayor, who was 10 days past her due date, had been given a cocktail of medications, and was feeling loopy.
“I was shaking so badly that my G must have looked like a B,” Ellyn tells TODAY.com. “After I got the birth certificate in the mail, I immediately fixed it, but for some reason I didn’t think about the social security card ... until I took Gabby for her learner's permit."Mayor found it hilarious — at least she did after everything was sorted — and she had her learner’s permit two weeks later.
“For years, I thought I was so unique this experience,” Mayor tells TODAY.com. “But it turns out, I’m not!”
