[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My 16-year old is getting his on time, but most kids are neighborhood don’t. It’s a very busy, urban neighborhood. Pretty scary place for new drivers. A lot of the reason was it was easy to do the online course during Covid and he could get in behind the wheel. Once school ramps up in 2 weeks and sports, it would be hard for him to find the time. Kids walk, bike and take Metro in our neighborhood and so much is close, food, movie theaters, etc., driving isn’t necessary.[/quote] I want to say I was floored at how much more involved it is for kids to get a license than it was for me in the 80s. I grew up in Fairfax Co and only took a written test and drove around the block and presto: license. Today it’s, parent class, classroom for kid, multiple tests and 40 hours drive time. This is by no means bad, it’s a good thing!, just not as easy to fit it all in.[/quote]
