Remember when drivers ed used to be something that was taken very seriously?
Remember when there used to be PSA's on TV about safe driving practices?
Remember when they used to take wrecked cars from accidents and put them on street corners?
Not so much anymore, and it shows!
Its a right, not a privilege these days.
Here in Washington one would think they would be professionals at driving in the rain...….NOT!
I actually commend the drivers ed now....It takes 2 different sections to get their license, the kids need to have 50 hours of drive time, a portion of that being "night time" driving before they can advance to the second portion of the class. We have to keep track of it on an app.
They also need to know how to parallel park, etc. or they simply don't pass. My kids school has a mangled car sitting right next to the American flag every year.
I drove myself to drivers ed at one of my school teachers house that as I recall took a few weeks after school...But I lived in the sticks.
My wife can't parallel park to this day.
I didn't pay any attention to any of this stuff when my oldest boy was going...now that my daughter is in the middle of it, I'm a nervous nelly.
