Tomorrow at a very early bloody 9:30 in the morning, I shall endeavor to get my driver's license. If I do, i'll be a very happy camper. If I don't, i'll have waisted 36 dollars, and once again dissapointed myself and my parents.
Wish me luck!

7 dollars for the test here, then 14 for the license if you pass....
Good luck, Jubes... you'll do fine :-)

Welp, thanks for all the good wishings...... but it turns out that I failed.
Driving instructors should NOT be allowed to take people out for thier tests when they're PMSing. She got me on a whole bunch of REALLY picky things that wouldn't have mattered anyway. I HATE THIS. Now I have to reschedule for two weeks ahead and take it again, and pay the 36 dollar exam fee again....
And things are VERY expensive in CT... the license itself costs 44 dollars.

Some of these testers can be utter ****s. My first time, the guy tore up my form when we discovered that my mother had forgotten to bring my birth certificate.
Second time around, I did everything myself, and had a different tester, and things went fine.
If you can, get another tester.

What did you have to do, all I had to do is signal correctly, honk my horn, drive in circle, and park. Of Course next year there going add parallel parking. BTW my older brother still failed the test. Finally I sure that no one in my family is ever going have drivers test in my new Car, it's a 95 Sebring, this car has 42,625 miles, is in near perfect interior and exterior, it is just too sweet. And it has V-6 and will do at least a 120. I going to call it, yes the White Star (certainly not the Titanic , wonders how many people will actually get that). Best of all I only paid 12,000 to get it.

*grins* My tester was BEYOND cool! A) he didn't have me do half of the test because he didn't feel like it, so I didn't have to back around a corner, change lanes, or do anything except drive around the block and parallel park... Yay! B) I took the entire test going over the speed limit by about 7 miles.. when the tester noticed this, he very almly said to me "What is the speed limit in a residential area like this one" to which I replied "25" and he said "Okay... so haw fast are you going?" And I said "32, sir!" At that point he just started laughing and said "Okay... keep going..."
When we got back to the testing center, he told me I passed with a 96% (Whoo, hoo!) and then went to take my driver's license picture... this is the coolest thing about him: He ekpt retaking my picture until he got one that I looked REALLY good in! Awesome! *L*
I lucked out BIG time... hehehe... all of my other firneds had BAD testers ;-)

Is it just me or is it very odd not to test for parallel-parking abilities?
