LOL, I know that feeling, I took my Daughter to a parking lot near our home to teach her how to drive a car when she was 15. she mastered parallel parking, 3 point turns and all the proper uses of her turn signals, mirrors and braking before she enrolled in Drivers Ed. But nothing prepared me for the first time I rode with her after she got her Learners Permit :-)

But she did pass her Drivers test with no mistakes on her first try, but after we got home from the Test, I went back to work, and when my Wife got home she decided to let her take her for a spin. My daughter drove all of 100 feet before she had her first accident :-)

She stopped behind a car at a stop sign, and as he started to move, she looked to her left and started to go forward and the guy in front of her had to stop for a car he didn't see and my daughter ran right into the back of him :-) No damage to either car, but my wife wouldn't let her drive alone until I spent more time with her as a passenger. My first Gray hairs arrived during that period :-)

You're not kidding, Mike. Learner's permits kept my hair colorist living high off the hog.

Too bad I don't still live in the area. We could have kept your business humming this past year with 3 accidents. Thank God no one was hurt, except my husband's backside where he keeps his wallet!! LOL Man, it's expensive to repair cars.
