[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why do people say it would "suck" for high school kids to get on a highway to get to school?  It's not abnormal to get on a highway around here....it baffles me every time I read it[/quote]

Many people would prefer young drivers limit their time on interstate highways. Is that really that hard to understand?  [/quote]

I grew up here and took drivers ed here, and the first thing they do is take you on the highways due to the layout of this area and how you typically get around.  Many accidents happen on old keene mill/burke center pkwy/etc and not actually on the highways and involve stopped cars/traffic lights, so yeah....still not understanding it.  [/quote]

Coming from Bren Mar going to Springfield, you have to get on at Edsall and immediately merge over to the third lane from the right.  It's a tricky maneuver for many adults, at least based on the number of times I've almost gotten hit there.  I would not want a teen driver doing that until they get some more experience. [/quote]
