Title: Driver's Ed
Post by: KonohaShinobi on November 11, 2008, 10:25:05 AM
Yesterday was my first day of driver's ed and we did not really do much of anything. Needless to say, it was pretty boring. We have to take a test over a chapter in the manual everyday so we are required to study every night for the test. We must get a B or higher in the class or we cannot get our probationary license, required by state law. Also, I only get to actually drive every other day (tuesday, thursday, and saturday so that I can get some daylight driving), so that sucks. But luckily there is not any class on Fridays so that's cool.

My older brother and sister have never taken driver's ed and learned how to drive from my mother, but she does not have the time to teach me, so I have to take this class.

Attention Miss Know.It.All. Not all states have a DMV. doodhuh;

Massachusetts has an RMV(registry instead of directory). Maine has a BMV(bureau).  I think Ohio does too.

No. :(

I've never really had a reason to get my license to begin with. I've always been okay with public transports. I wouldn't have a car anyway and the gaz prices don't incite me to have one to be honest. But now it's beginning to get more necessary and it could open up a few more job opportunities if I actually knew how to drive.

True, isn't Québec usually the most expensive province for gasoline too?  And it probably would help you get a job easier.

I wouldn't really know. I just looked here (http://www.fuelfocus.nrcan.gc.ca/price_map_e.cfm) and British Columbia seems to have it up the ass right now.

Yeah I had to take a book-based classroom Driver's Ed, then afterward I had to take driving lessons from an instructor. Then after that, I had to complete a certain number of hours driving with a licensed driver.

The DE test was extremely easy, as was the permit test. As for my actual driving test...I failed it the first time because I sucked at parallel parking. After I learned to do it better I took it again and aced it with no troubles.

when I was driving with my instructor, I took a turn too fast and his cell phone fell on the driver's side floor.

I slammed on brakes and gave him his phone back.

I liked how  my instructor would let the brake fluid run out. He'd tell me to floor it when getting on the highway and then he'd get pissed when i couldm't get past 50 mph. Fat bastard...
