y'all triggered a memory about when we taught the kids to drive: ~5 yrs ago

I learned how much WE use the subconscious to drive.
All the things that we get nervous about when they drive is due to us being conditioned to drive with intuition. (experience)

The kids don't have it yet.

I was amazed at how much we use our subconscious for.

 

this exactly.

We're on HWY 9 where the speed limit is 55. I had just finished talking about how looking ahead and keeping with the flow of traffic is your goal. Watching all of the cars in front of you, looking for slowing signs, brake lights, distance between cars decreasing, etc. Looking way ahead as you can see traffic lights to adjust your speed accordingly. We then see a light ahead turn red. She's still hammering the gas. I ask, did you see that the light is red? She's says yes as she still moving along steadily and all the other cars are braking. I calmly say, now would be a good time to take your foot off the gas and start braking. We stopped just in time with way more aggressive braking then I ever would. It's a work in progress and they need the miles to become better. And yes those first few days are spirited to say the least.

 

That’s the vibe I got from my daughter too…

When I brought the truck home she got exited… and she wasn’t happy when I told her the first lessons will be in the Corolla.

 

I'm 4.5 years away from having a learner's permit in the house.
They already have the 4wheelers mastered when it comes to shifting, throttle and braking so hopefully that translates to vehicles..

 

these days the insurance add on <25yr olds is obscene.

plan accordingly.

 

Ugh. I'll have to check and see if we can insure them on just one car, @T-Rex266 can't iirc

 

States define the laws. As @T-Rex266 said in co they have to be insured on Every vehicle in the household.

 

The insurance companies and the state politicians couldn't possibly be in cahoots..

That would be just some wild conspiracy

 

Where's our boy @20GR8 Super at??

He's gonna laugh his ass off when he finds out @GODZILLA drives a Ford now

 

Student driving, now I’m fully triggered.

 

Shit man, what happened?

 

Learning.

 

Damn.
What's the car?

 

It was a used xterra. ‘06 I think. Daughter’s first car.

 

We fixed it though! I’m not much of a wrencher but I got it done.

 

Nice work!

 

Isn't this thread the daily Newsletter?

 

Spent the day so far in the garage trying to clean the Golf Cart. Slow moving with one hand but I got ‘er done!!! Man she is pretty and not looking forward to the split *sniff*

 

Mine doubled and hasn’t dropped. Girls are apparently cheaper but I am still expecting a big hit in 14 months when she gets her own license.

I have been wanting to ask that question.

I said this about 12 months ago, but I am going to search around for a new agent before my next renewal… just need to be in one place for more than a week

 

My vote is No…I don’t need another email.

 

I'll go along with what everyone else says.
I just want to fit in and be loved.

 

Are you me? How did you get in my head?
