Not a surprise, they hand licenses out like candy.  I remember only having to drive out of the License Office...go up one block and make a 3-point turn.  Then drive back to the office.  It was kind of ridicolous, no freeway driving or anything.:p <<<--And why does the African have to be the smartarse now. ;)

When I took my driving test, the BMV woman fell asleep in the car and all I did was drive around for 10 minutes.


I think the basic driving test should involve the kind of driving I had to do in police academy...high speed evasion and braking, weaving through cones that were set up on a curve, etc.

Or even better, a road raged nutjob hot your bellybutton with blowing horn, flashing lights, screaming, complete with 1 finger salutes and flying empties.

I flunked my first test and for only 1 mistake.

was acing the test but didn't see this huge (more deep than big) pot hole as I approached the intersection.  I hit the brakes hard as I saw it at the last minute.  

dropping in the hole caused the examiner to bounce her head of the side window and my braking let her rebound into the windshield.

she should have buckled up.

if you know a foreign language pretend thats all you speak.  it seems that they just hand out licenses to non-English speakers.

Narveeno,

The most important thing they want see is that your confident behind the wheel and know the basics. they know that when you hit the road solo you will have to make your own judgements in different situations. confedence young man...confidence.

now as far as the test goes they told me the skinny would always pass people and the fat guy failed everyone...i got the skinny guy.:aok

there was 2 feet of snow from the previuos 2 weeks of storms...so there were no curbs :aok

I'm going up the street and a freakin school bus turns on to it just as i'm approaching the corner...she was so cool that she motioned for me to hang tight and backed up the bus...yeahya.:aok

a big no no...don't sweat profusely. they frown upon that.

and hey...just as a goof...when ever they tell you to do something...ie: turn aorund here, make a right turn..say rgr:rofl

Ahhh am I the greatest or what?  The fat guy passed me, in fact I don't even think he marked anything on the page.  10 minute drive through residential and I passed, GO FIGURE!  This was of course after we had shared 10-20 shots of vodka to "calm the nerves" and after he made a few passes at me.  You guys are the bestest!:aok
