My adventures into student driving

Dear Parents,

Well, following a small fiasco at the DMV (doesn't everyone have a fiasco at the DMV?) my 15 year old son got his learners permit.  So off we go.

Day one, I take him to a parking lot to just get him started.  I didn't expect to do much except get him starting and stopping to get a feel for the brake and the gas.  Well, I hadn't considered the effect of video games.  I mean this in a positive sense.  His handling of the car was excellent.  He parked, u-turned, k-turned, and even backed into a parking spot flawlessly, and on the first day. 

So now what?  I expected to do parking and u-turns for at least another month. 
I will keep you posted on my driving adventures.
Any advice for the advanced driving student?  Post it here!

To Your Family,
