Driver's Ed.

horsegirl · 05-21-2004, 04:41 PM

Does any one have driver's education in there school? Me I don't but I just thought of it since I'm going for my liscense in less than 2 weeks.

I don't, nor am I in any rush to get my liscence. Seriously, I've had my temps for well over a year (they've been renewed, though).

Yes, but the damned teacher took like a whole year before he drove me on my last lesson. DAMNIT, THAT TIME COULD'VE BEEN SPENT COUNTING MONTHS FOR THE PERMIT!

I had it last year, and I've had my license for a month. Just got into my first accident today, though it wasn't my fault.

Beg if you want to hear about it.

I've got to get my license renewed, since my 21st is this week.

.... Oh ****, this reminds me.. I have to go back up to the school and get my Certificate of Attendance (for a school course on driving) so I can get my permit.

I'm going for my license tomorrow so wish me luck, every one^^ I'm hoping I pass...

My driver's ed teacher who said "mmmmm-kay" alot really didn't teach us anything. Kind a nice person but wow what a job.
90% of the stuff i "learned" there hasn't come up, or will come up. Shoulda talked to us about what to do when a cop pulls you over

I have to get my temps renewed one of these days. That means I'll have to retake the classroom test. No problem. It was easy the first time I took it. Easy to answer honestly, and even easier to cheat.

I'm surprised someone wants to hear. But if you're interested...

While I was coming home after school, I pass buy an SBC building on a very busy street, and at the time, some employees were striking against something, but i'm not sure what it was. Anyway, someone stopped quickly to give them the thumbs-up, yeah, good job kind of thing, and the people behind him stopped very suddenly too. I was behind them, and I stopped, and the guy behind me...well, he kinda didn't. He hit me and pushed me into the people in front of me and made me hit them. The guy that caused it wasn't hurt and sped away.

That was my accident. This is what pissed me off.

We parked (in the SBC parking lot) and exchanged info, but I was nervous and locked my keys into the car. I called my mom to bring the spare, so she did. She was in the suicide lane, and was turning left into the parking lot, and the SBC people got in front of her car. She had a choice then. Cars were speeding towards her (with my 7 year old brother in the back) and she could either hit the people in front of her or possibly get hit.

She chose to hit the SBC employees. Fortunately, they were smart enough to get out of the way.

So...yep. That's my story.

Didn't that strike end last week?

And remember, "I'm-a Luigi, number one!"

c_jks · 06-07-2004, 09:05 PM

Yeah, this was on the last day of the strike.
