Driver License

My youngest granddaughter is going to get her driver license this summer. That is unless she changes her mind. She does that a lot. Boy, when I was young, I wanted a driver license more than anything. That’s about all I thought about. Well, I did think about girls.  That was why I wanted a license. They were easier to catch if you had a car.

Now days, you do all the study and paper work on-line. She has to take several hours instruction and study before she can proceed. I don’t know if you have to take the computer with you when you start the driving part. I guess you could duct tape it to the steering wheel.

As I remember the exam required you to know a bunch of laws. I bet she really likes that part. As I recall, all I wanted to do was learn how to cruise around for girls. That was not on the test. Back in the day, the process involved not only the written exam, but you had to ride with an actual Highway Patrol Officer for the driving test. They didn’t have much of a sense of humor.

It will be fun to watch granddaughter work this summer on getting a license. I am helping her all I can by giving her advice.
