Are they just giving out driver's licenses now?

My sister got her license today....during the test, she ran the stop sign AND hit the curb in the parallel park. Somehow she has her license now. WTF!? I feel afraid to drive now...

When I got my license they almost failed me because I used my mirrors to look for traffic when I parallel parked instead of turning my head to look that way.
 
I have a friend whose sister went to the DMV to get her learner's permit, and they sent her a full fledged driver's license! She has since had 4 accidents in 3 years of driving. WTF?
 
I heard they raised the number of required UPC symbols from the Kelloggs boxes at least. Standards are improving, but it may take time.
 
In our state you can get a licence with zero drivers training. All you need is your birth certificate proving you're over 16, or at least 14 if you live on a farm. Needless to say, we have LOTS of farms. 🙂
 
which place did she go to in nj? i've heard kilmer is notorious for giving a license to ANYONE (my uncle has been driving for what, 5 years now and he still sucks..he shouldn't even have a damn car).

i'd be scared of anyone who went to kilmer 😉

I wish. Around here people flunk all the time but then again, that's around here where people are just plain idiots.

NOoOOOOooOOOoOOOoOooOOoOOooOOOo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! wait, south, middle, or top part of cali?
 
The year after I got my DL in Texas (1991) they started an experimental program in Texas (at least in Corpus Christi, not sure if it was state-wide) where if students passed Driver's Ed then they didn't have to take the driving exam at the DMV to get their license.

Needless to say, the amount of accidents over the next few years involving teenage drivers dramatically increased. I think it was either the year that I graduated or the year after that they returned to giving driving exams.

:Q
 
WTF? When I did my test driving through a stop sign was an automatic failure.

Note to self don't drive in New Jersy. 😉
 
I don't know if it is just a regional thing, but I wouldn't expect hitting the curb on the parking test to be an automatic failure, but the stop sign thing should have been. No offense, but maybe...

nevermind.
 
it should really be more strict, then maybe we'd get some decent public transportation and wouldn't have arseholes in giant trucks not checking their blind spots while talking on their cell phones

lodi.

and I just got the full story on the parallel parking. She backed up, hit the curb and wasn't even close to doing it right. She asked if she could try again and the tester let her. BTW, at least when I was testing, you hit the curb --> automatic failure...you don't come to a complete, tactile stop at a sign, you fail immediately...no questions asked come back in a few weeks.

as far as where in cali, somewhere close to LA or san diego I think.

NO!!!!! Stay in NJ!! The roads here are packed with enough cars already!
 
New law in Floriduh. If you are old enough you dont have to see over the steering wheel.

They keep mailing my 97 year old Aunt her liscence. Too bad she died 3 years ago.

If you have a Lisc. from anywhere, they just give you one from here.
