The year my kid sister was learning to drive the first s@#wfall I took her to a mall and showed her how to get out of skids that I created. It took two hours to pry her hands from the dashboard but she's never had any accidents that were her fault.<br /><br />Enjoy the warm weather and Be Safe!<br /><br />It's about time.Rick and Kathy Rousseauhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05187734210342762674noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7589339935152891167.post-39595773263611389472013-12-19T19:37:33.136-08:002013-12-19T19:37:33.136-08:00Yep, nothing I hate more in the driving world than...Yep, nothing I hate more in the driving world than tailgaters.

But that was nearly 60 years ago and now I don't think kids drive anything but automatics. When we started RVing I gave my Honda to our granddaughter... she gave it back a month later... couldn't drive it.

Tap the breaks on black ice around a slight curve? Foot off gas to slow down. I did the lot thing with my kids also.
