I passed today

Well the difference between my first and awcound test, I realized........ wow It's alot easier when you're sober.

But as the title implies I passed my 1A road test today, so I got a full 1A drivers liscence so now I can to become rich as Preppy.

I got 4 points off, but I'm sure if she wanted she could find a few more points but she did let alot of tiny 2 point mistakes go which is nice.

Thanks,
not sure where to go yet. Long/short/construction I dunno, probably will do only constructoh this year.

I got 2 points off for a nasty grinding noise between a 5&4th gear change.

I also got 2 points off because of a couple jerkish starts. That one was because of nervous never had problems with that before.

Yes I think I the SGI chick could be described as a mid-late 30's. Her name was Natalie.

Thanks

As long as you're driving a Ford/Merc. you SHOULD be safe, if I find any Chevy's or Smart cars, then you may need to watch out.

Here another trucking sog I may be singing
"give me forty acres and I'll turn this rig aroung"
I forget who sings it but it ends with "give me forty stick of dynomite and I'll blow this thing to hell"
