We have a new driver !
On Monday Michael was 15 1/2.In the State of Ohio, that means he was eligible for a drivers permit. Monday was not a good day for us to make the trip to the BMV, then to the exam station, followed by the insurance company so we put it off until Tuesday, which turned out to be a worse day.Poor Michael had to wait two days but today things worked out. Immediately after school we went to the BMV and exam station. Then we called the Insurance company and they agreed that a faxed copy of his permit and his grades( for the good student discount) would be fine. Michael has karate tonight so hopefully tomorrow he can have his first driving lesson. Since he has been changing oil and doing break jobs on several cars, and has even replaced my car's tie rod ends, I think he is doing OK with the mechanics and is ready to learn to drive . Congratulations Michael !
