At my high school one of the driver's ed instructors literally wrote the book many of you might have used. So needless to say, our program was rigorous. But the good part is only random kids had to take the driving test withthe cop.

A funny for me is no one ever taught me how to put gas in the car. The first time I did it I was alone. The guy asked me what kind of gas (1982, they still sold leaded). I said, ummm the regular kind. So he turned on the leaded. Note to those who never dealt with this: the leaded nozzle was bigger than the unleaded hole. I was so embarrassed when I realized my mistake! Having to go back and say "I meant the other one" was horrifying to this smarter than thou 16 year old.
