    Thats some messed up drivers ed. ...Don't you have school, or work or anything? How'd you find time to do 6 hours for 5 days in a row?

    Mine was an hour and a half for 2 weeks (except S and S). Although I did awesome on the tests, I'd like to note that I failed my first drivers test because I was driving 5mph over the speed limit...Would have passed with 1 point to spare.

    Second Time I only had 14 points off...

    Hooray for Drivers Edumacation.



    Listening to: The General, by Dispatch
    ...Decent song...Open Up is good to, haven't really heard any other songs.

    Well, I do go to school.

    Its from 4:00 to 9:30 (both pm), so I didn't have ANY time for ANYthing.

    Hence why my post count isn't up by 100 by now <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->

    that's pretty lame imo, when I did drivers ed, I did driving simulators and actual driving in a car as well as all of what you're doing.

    Nope, never drove once. Thats what driver's TRAINING is for.

    *frown* Does that mean you have a license now? In Germany it takes people half a year to get that.

    We had a freaking class for a trimester, then a week of 1 hour driving lessons, and then after you passed that and the class, 3 2-hour driving ( actual driving, like in downtown and highways). And then I only got my permit, licence next year.

    Just because you can pass a written doesn't mean crap. <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Indeed. Back when I was taking drivers ed (7 years ago! jeez it doesn't seem that long...) there was this pathetic homeschool kid who had no friends or anything and so he made 100% on everything on the written part. On the driving part he was the worst one of the whole course and the only one the coach teaching the course has had to use the chicken break on in something like 20 years. Worst driver I've ever seen, complete incompetant. He almost got us into a head on collission with a semi because he was busy looking at some damned cows like he'd never seen any before...

    Dude, drivers ed is teh suck.

    My Driver's Ed teacher is the most boring woman ever born. Even ignoring the fact that I don't think she taught us a single thing today, here's some statistics of her class, after going over them a second time for anyone who knew the results before and I told them the wrong answers

    In one class she said :
    Alright 257 times (that's more than twice a minute)
    Y'know 117 times
    Ok 240 times

    She trails off to nowhere 18 times
    Tells 7 useless stories
    Says 11 things that may be words but I don't know what the hell they may be.
    And says "Octangle" once.

    From the three words said most often she says 614 useless words a day. That's more than 5 useless words a minute.
    Over the course of the 15 classes she says 9210 completely useless words.
    Calculated at .5 seconds per word, that's 4605 seconds, 76.75 minutes, or 1.3 hours of my life wasted listening to this woman say 3 words, and that's not counting the times she says "um", doesn't answer our questions, just stammers for no reason, tells dumb stories, or mumbles.

    Just think of what I could do with an extra 1.3 hours! I could be out actually driving!

    And the fact that I actually bothered to do all that says a lot.

    there is this international driving school thing that a friend of mine went to (I'm from Canada btw). You get your G1 and then go write the test. If you get a good score you've passed your drivers ed. Wish i did that. <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif'><!--endemo-->

    I was amused at that little story until I realized I'm that kid in my school. <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif'><!--endemo-->
