[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You’re supposed to drive with them before the behind the wheel instruction. There was just a thread about this recently. Do not send them with zero experience. Start in a parking lot and graduate to smaller roads. [/quote] This. At least in Virginia you have a test at the DMV to get the permit. Take them to a parking lot after that, we used the Wolf Trap and NOVA CC lots to start doing very low speed (like 10-15mph) car handling a few times. By the time DC had their first driving lesson we already had a few hours under their belt, moving from the parking lots to short stints on neighborhood streets. [/quote] How does this work with insurance? They aren’t covered. Aren’t you worried they’ll hit a car, or worse? [/quote] Each insurance company may differ, but our rep at State Farm confirmed that until they have their official license, they are covered under the parents' insurance. Best to call and confirm.[/quote]
