It was two months into the new school years first semester and already the teachers were handing out permission slips to sign up for a driving lessons course. I was so excited all of my friends were planning on taking the driving lessons course together and the school offered an array of time slots for the driving lessons course, since by our current grade allot of students had after school jobs or extra curricular activities. I knew my parents would be pleased about that since they didn’t want my concern over driving to affect my debate club schedule. After all it would be an extra curricular activity that would impress the college admissions office not a driver’s license. I hurried home to tell my parents to sign the slip immediately seeing how our teachers warned that the open spaces would be limited and if we did sign up too late we would have to wait until the next semester. That was the last thing I wanted, I wanted to be ale to spend my summer driving places with my friends.
Two weeks later all the students that had been lucky enough to receive a seat in the driving lessons course were all called into the gymnasium were an assembly was being held. Students were each handed a booklet containing need-to-know basics. We would have the weekend to study and when we returned to school the following weekend we would have to take a mandatory driving practice test and pass. I studied every night that weekend and even some on the morning of my driving practice test and sure enough it paid off. I was in the class and so were five of the seven of my friends who took the test as well. We were then given the locations of where we were scheduled to meet depending on the time slot each student had chosen two weeks prior.
During the time of our courses the teachers were trying their best to make sure every single student fully comprehended every single thing there was to know about cars and driving. I had learned how to reverse, how to signal, what each sign meant, how to merge, and what to do when pedestrians were crossing the street. We all knew that nobody was going to pass with nothing less then a perfect score and our instructor made sure we would not forget it.
