You do not say someone drived, you say they drove.

People are always hanged. Of course some may be hung, but that's another subject.

When I was working at the gallows, the foreman always said that if the “client” died, he was well hung.

The proper usage there would be well hanged. Well hung would be incidental.

This reminds me of the Robin Williams routine where he does an ad for a school that can turn white people into black people. Of course it would have been incredibly offensive if it wasn't so tongue in cheek, making fun of stereotypes. Even then it might have been offensive. At one point, he says, become instantly well hung and then he repeats an octave lower, that's right, instantly well hung. It was classic.
