The time finally came for Jacob to get his driving permit. He has been 18 for several months and has been busy with school. He also wanted to make sure he had the rules down cold. We drove to the DMV and waited in line. He got a number and waited for it to be called.
The paperwork started and the application fee was paid. The picture was taken and the test competed with a passing score. We left the building and found a church parking lot to begin behind the wheel drivers education. Jacob drove a large figure eight using his signals and stopping at imaginary intersections. He did a great job and got the start and stop and start again with a left or right hand turn down to an acceptable level of competence to get on the street. From the church he drove to our house without any problems.
