[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DD believes she is the only teen in her group not learning to drive. I grew up in DC and back then it was never really a thing in my circle to be learning way before the test to drive.

I am surprised many are learning this early. I did not take lessons until right before my driving test for my learners. [/quote]

Are she and her friends close to 15? In NC, my nieces and nephews all started learning at what felt like a very young age to me: 14, going on 15.

Are you in suburbs or DC proper near bus and metro? My kid has zero interest in driving right now, but buses and metro's all the time because it is so easy and right out our front door.

That's normal in NC. You can get a permit at 15, but you need six hours behind the wheel with a driving teacher before the permit, not after which seems to be the standard around here. You can take that driver's ed at 14 1/2. I did the driving portion of drivers ed at the very beginning of my freshman year of high school.[/quote]
