    Interesting. It's just with all the safety involved I wouldn't think they would have anybody other than a student, and instructor, in a cab while on a public roadway driving.

    Pike,
    I don't think any training school works that way. In our case we get a fair amount of wheel time before ever touching public roads. Being in rural Missouri we start out on fairly empty public roads. Doesn't seem like a problem to me.

    Checking in after 3 weeks at Crowder College:
    We've split our time between backing exercises and road trips with some classroom time tossed in. We all survived midterm testing which included a written test and a DOT-style pre-trip inspection.

    I need more practice with parallel parking. Straight back and lane change back are good. 90 degree doc is next week. I'm not top gun but i'm in the top 3... :)

    Ozarks Lady: you-know-who is doing well. He picks stuff up with practice. My money is on him succeeding. :)
     
    xlsdraw Thanks this.

    Igneouss, thank you for being a friend to my son. I know that he has been working hard, getting frustrated one day and overjoyed on another. I just tell him to take it easy, listen to Kelly, and it will all come together.

    My son has a strange memory. I told him my name on here and he remembers a name I had on another board a long time ago...lol

    We talk almost every day as long as my awake hours are when he's not in school and awake...lol. Met up with him at home ( in town) yesterday ( showed him this thread and he said " Yeah, N×××, is a great guy). That is one thing I love about our dedicated account..being able to stop in...really going to miss him once he's on the road.
