New Lightning driver on the road

Well, my son turned 15 last Friday, and got his permit on Monday. He's been officially driving for 2 days, and doing well.

He hasn't broken any traffic laws or unwritten "rules of the road" yet, but he's already seen two complete idiots. Both were making left turns into oncoming traffic when they had a green (yield), UNPROTECTED, light. In both cases he was heading towards them with a green, and in both cases had to slam on the brakes to avoid these fools... oh, and yes, he was driving the speed limit (in one case he was completely stopped, waiting for his green, then 5 seconds after he had a green, a car makes a left turn in front of him).

Of course both these events made my blood boil, and I lost it with the last guy. I'm glad I wasn't driving or I'd have followed him to his destination. Complete moron.

But the good thing is that Tyler is getting some good time behind the wheel, even in some holiday traffic, and managing things well, getting a feel for his truck.

Make sure he salutes his new L brothers when he sees them driving down the road.
