Driver's Ed SUX!

No really, it does.

Today was my second day there and it really is getting on my nerves. So much that it makes me want to quit and go take private lessons in a few months. (Yes, it's that bad.)

I'm a homeschooler and I've never really been to a Public School. Or a Private one for that matter. But anyways, I get to the High School (This was yesterday) and we meet the teacher and our little books that the stress over and over again not to lose or you'll have to cough up twenty bucks and THEN…we "learn" about basic driver saftey and which pedal is the gas and which one is the brake and then we are supposed to answer the questions in our workbooks. And what does the teacher do? GIVE US THE ANSWERS TO EVERY SINGLE QUESTION!!!

Like today, he gave us the answer to literally half the questioins on our sign test today. 15 out of 30!

I wan't to LEARN man not sit in a room copying answers!

Was it like this for any of you guys. Because honestly, I'd rather take Driver's Ed twenty times and learn then pass and not know what the heck Energy of Motion is…

And yes,you'll find public education is about countries trying to say they have the genius children,so they make it really easy.This causes shockingly high success rates

I drove a golf car when I was 7 lol. And I nearly killed me and my big brother…

I absolutely HATED driver's ed. I even HATED behind-the-wheel even more than the classroom part. We had to have 30 hours of classroom time and 6 hours of behind-the-wheel.

But I got my license about a year ago and I'm glad that schooling/permit stage is over.

I drove my dad's car when I was 5. I think I went about 20ft.

I wish america would just make everyone fail so that they would want to learn…

@ thePharoah

I could learn more in 30hrs if I stayed home and read the book than if I stay in the classroom.

I can't take the driving part of it for a bit because my right contact perscription is too low. [:P]

Gtg finish my math lessons…

Ya,reading on personal time is way more constructive

Which is why if you really want to learn,go to an ArtSchool and get no homework while ignoring all the ArtClasses

@ Zipper Head

I'm double-jointed.

@Poly-man

Deleted your post because that was just too weird.

I wonder how smart you are if you did all that in class and got 98's…
