What’s up with all the “new driver” stickers?

My daughter was the one driving whenever she was in the car, but I didn’t take the magnet on and off based on when she was the driver.

Would it kill you to take it off when you were driving? You are ruining it for your daughter and for other kids. Who would want to give a break to kids learning how to drive when it is mostly adults driving around with those, lazy to spend 1.5 second to remove the magnetic sticker.

Agree. So annoying. Especially the stickers that start with “Be Patient!”

No sticker, you’re not the boss of me.

You're supposed to be patient with every driver...

But it's hard to be. Oh my is it hard...

When we were in Australia they had a different level of license for new drivers (with an indication on the car that they were still in the probationary period). I thought it was so smart. My kids are a decade from driving but I would 100% get them a magnet/sticker that says they are a new driver

IME: crap drivers hoping their little sticker will buy them some forgiveness.

Not from me.

I hope you are a nicer and less cynical person in real life.

Probably not. This person has road rage. They most likely yell at cashiers, flight attendants and everyone else when things don’t go their way because they are in a hurry because their time is precious.

Exactly. We have had three teen drivers and always removed the magnet when they weren’t in the driver’s seat. I want others to give my teens a break and you people are ruining that chance.
