Driver's edFollow

This explains why the insurance on young drivers is so high.

It's a real short article.



My drivers ed went a tad bit better, I only ran a stop sign.

Your name is close to mine, I demand a duel.

Seems as though the story would make a good driver's ed video.

I actually refused to get my license until the month before I graduated because I didn't want to get roped into driving to school. I didn't care for the way I almost got ran over when walking through the parking lot, much less trying to drive through it.

Don't worry, people around me only have to worry if they're pedestrians, and people in the car only if they're wanted by the police. I learned to drive on a cross-country trip the week after graduation (manual transmission, no less), and I honed my skills in downtown D.C.







I get very nice cops.

In my driver's ed class in high school, we watched a video in which a man with a rather small head, a fanny pack, and a white baseball cap drove around in a full-sized van lightly honking at people to let them know when he wanted to change lanes, pass them, proceed at a 4-way intersection, or just give a friendly "hello".

At least they didn't dress him up all normal-like, to give the impression that unimpaired people actually honk at each other like that, or there'd be some good ol' fashioned highway shootings going on every six months around here.

Driver's Ed was the most horribly boring experience of my life.
