WELCOME TO THE


(where our troops, allies and their families can refresh themselves)

Good morning, Everyone. Good morning

Thank you, Ma, for preparing the Canteen for today’s activities.

Our local DC Metroland weather report

~ Today...Showers likely.
Scattered thunderstorms...Mainly this afternoon.
Highs in the mid 80s. Southwest winds 5 to 10 mph.
Chance of rain 60 percent.

~ Tonight...Mostly cloudy.
Showers likely with scattered thunderstorms in the evening...
Then a slight chance of showers after midnight.
Lows in the lower 70s. Southwest winds 5 to 10 mph.
Chance of rain 60 percent.

You Passed Your Driver's Test
Congratulations, you got 9/10 correct.
You're a good driver - at least, when you want to be.
Are You a Good Driver?

Ok, here's my problem with this one:
#10 - ok to turn left on a one-way to one-way? Must be city driving.
#7 - how does a pedestrian ALWAYs have the right of way? They think they can just step out in front of a moving vehicle?
It's suppose to be at crosswalks and intersections with walk-don't walk lights.
This is so misleading to pedestrians and causes them to get hit.
#4 - who drives 4 car lengths from another when doing 40? Maybe 1 or 2 car lengths.

So I failed the first time for those reasons.

And I was happy to read that rules change from state to state,
which by the way is totally loony.
But explains why there seems to be so many
new stupid people in the area.

Seriously, the MVA & States really need to come into the 21st century!!!

But, please stay right where you are.
Keep the troops and their families entertained.

The Canteen is

Come on in and sit for a while.
There's always plenty of coffee, tea,
pancakes, conversation, silliness,
and plain old BS

Welcome to the Canteen, halfright

Some folks are good drivers in their dreams. Most haven’t seen a State Drivers Manual since they were 16. Times and rules change.

IMO, the MVA needs to start sending out a newsletter, like the insurance companies. to give people the latest news/changes.

Good morning CMN ((HUGS))

Had a spectacular accident in September 1968 - lucky to be alive after that

My son, the Marine, had one of those (can't remember if it was before or after becoming a Marine). Thank God he's alive. He's my first born!

Good morning night owl ((HUGS))

The scary part is that I have no idea which ones I got wrong. LOL!

Just go back and change the ones that may seem as if it could go either way, one at a time, until you get up to 100%. That's what I did. hehe

New Yorkers and Mass drivers are the worst. They suck in ways that have never sucked before.

I used to have a Mass license. When I took the test they gave me an informative pamphlet about useful hand gestures for the open road.

Actually that is an updated copy of this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=73D8kMbWn6E

This is what I showed to my classes. The gentleman is a retired MN State Patrolman. It appears now he is selling his classes on line. I would hope everyone of you see’s the complete video. Looks like it is now a 4 part series but if it saves you or your loved ones it is worth whatever he is asking. The young lady in your link must have seen it as well :) BTW I last taught CDL classes in 2002 when I had health issues that forced my retirement as you can tell by the age of my link :)
