Hi, son is now 20 and after a few tries he passed his test and has his learners permit. I know by his age if he could pass the road test he could have gotten actual drivers license by law. Never tried that as he hasn't passed the learners test so was unable to practice driving without that permit. Well he has it now and as he says "its my rite of passage" to get to drive. If you tell him when to stop as in coming up to a stop sign or upcoming red lite he knows to stop. Otherwise. He's the only one on the road!! He would just keep on going. He terrifies me when driving with him. We were in a business parking lot that has lanes to go up and down in and he was in the going down lane but when he saw a car coming up the other side he moved over to that side and the other car had to move over to up lane side! He has no idea what he did wrong. How do you get thru the rite of passage to drive if he can't drive on his own? He's gonna be starting our community college summer classes soon otherwise he as he says never gets out of the house. I told him he could get a job or go to school and he chose school. that will be two classes two days a week.
