Brings back memories of my first (and only) attempt at taking my wife's daughter for a driving lesson. About 2 hours after getting her permit, she convinced me to take her for a drive. So I picked a quiet, wide road nearby and drove there. We eased out from the curb and within 5 minutes were wrapped around a tree...no injuries except the car...and tree!

It is now two years later and she went for her license a few weeks ago. She was rather unlucky getting stuck behind a reversing truck just after pulling out of the testing station. She sat behind the truck as it reversed toward the car until the instructot had to take over and move...instant fail. Maybe I am mean....but it was a little funny I must admit.

I think kids these days just believe they are invincible...
