    In Florida she'd be teaching Driver's Ed.

    Dylan should have let her practice with his car.

    If she's that dumb, she shouldn't be on the road. 771 times? How many times is she getting the same questions wrong? Over and over and over and over.

    My wife passed the written but has failed the road test twice. And she's really a good driver. Everywhere we go, she does the driving.

    Silly stuff. Didn't understand examiner's instructions about making 3-point turn the first time . . . did not move into the right-hand lane of the parking lot fast enough the second time.

    Attempt No. 3 is Tuesday. But she's getting discouraged. "What will I do wrong this time?" :'(

    Some of those written tests can be tricky. Passed by the skin of my teeth last time, had to nail the last 7 questions to pass and did it.

    As for the granny, she's probably moved to my town and fits in fine with all the other morons on the road.

    Everybody thinks the driving in their city/state is the worst. Without fail. I have never heard anyone say, "Man, my fellow commuters sure are safe and sensible." If they're all bad, then none of them are bad. It's just how people drive.

    That's just a joke. She clearly shouldn't be allowed to take it anymore.

    "Every which way but loose ... you turn me every which way but loose ..."

    Dated reference. ::)

    In all my travels, I thought the best drivers were in ... wait for it ... Southern California. They were fast and knew what they were doing. If you don't, stay the hell off the freeway.

    The worst: Easily Orlando.

    "Turn where?"
    "Back there."
    "Oh." TURN

    That's true to an extent. While you wouldn't say "Man, my fellow commuters sure are safe and sensible," you wouldn't be constantly complaining about them. I've been driving about 10 years, as a resident of two states, but the first state I drove in I don't recall complaining about that state's drivers every time I left the house the way I do in Illinois.
