Default Driver's Test Today

Finally that beloved day has come! at 11:45AM (CST) I will finally be taking my driver's road test. I'm a good driver, but I'm still sooooo nervous. :? Actually, what I'm more worried about is the "written" (now on computers) test since I don't remember all the technical stuff like following distance.
Anyway, just a heads up to watch the roads in north western Wisconsin from now on. Dark blue jetta GL, don't you forget it! :P

CONGRATULATIONS RS!! I know it's a VERY big deal to finally be able to legally drive all by yourself. Isis is now 6 weeks after her 15th birthday and can take the test to get her restricted license. So...I know how excited you guys get about this!

Don't worry about the written. Look at all the idiots who drive and have passed it. Therefore, how hard can it be???

Distance....one car length for every 10 mph!

Let us know how it went when you get back!!!!

GOOD JOB RANDOM!!! I know you are thrilled. I'm with you Mom....I think one of the perks in having a new driver in the house is to get them to run all the errands.

It really helps both of you out and it's what I'll do to my daughter when she's of driving age.

This is NOT the way to keep your license very long!
