<p>S didn’t take his road test until the day before he flew out to college in CA. Good side was that we didn’t have to pay for his insurance. Bad side was that he didn’t have much road experience when he did drive out there. Good side was that CA’s roads are relatively well-marked and straight. Bad side (for him) and tell him he can’t take the newer car because I don’t want to worry about it, even after four years! D plans to take the road test in time to drive around this summer before she goes off to college.</p>
