Poor driving is not limited to immigrants. It is universal.
The boys went to driving school for their required Driver’s Ed, but the practice has to be done with us or another qualified driver, which will be Tom once he’s finished summer school, unless the Driving Adventures scare him into getting a real job.
In other driving related news, I saw a clip while at F-I-L’s for Father’s Day about a company trying to come up with some way to determine if someone’s driving is being impaired by marijuana. Apparently there isn’t any way of detecting the chemical changes in the bloodstream so they’re looking at cognitive tests. It will make it kind of hard to give something to cops they can use at a traffic stop. We may be going back to, “Please walk in a straight line.”
Back when everyone was saying pot should be legalized because it was no worse than alcohol I would ask, “So, there aren’t enough little crosses on the sides of roads already?”
Welcome ... to the liberal world.
Nope, not limited to immigrants at all. Some people are just bad drivers, some aren’t focused and some are just arrogant.
Ah. Thanks for clearing up my confusion about the driving school. Some days, the brain just doesn’t want to work.
Driving schools...have to get the young ones started early. Once they’re big enough to see over the hood is about the right age. Dad started me out on the bumper cars at about six...learned early about the physics of rear end collisions, getting t’boned, uncontrolled spin outs, etc...and whiplash.
