Our second daughter got her license a couple weeks ago at 17. It's a very scary thing even when she's just going to run a quick, local errand. I find myself pacing in front of a picture window until she returns and then I marvel at this little kid driving her mother's SUV. I guess it just takes some getting used to. Went through it with her sister. Part of the problem with us is our kids know everything.
As far as the learning to drive part. It was just too stressful on me and the Mrs., so we bit the bullet and used a driving school. They cover all the bases, in their car, and they know what the DMV folks will put them through in the driving test, which in NJ really just comes down to knowing how to parallel park. Funny story about that. We live on a culdesac so not much traffic and would let the younger ( Iknowitall so leave me alone) daughter go out and practice parking. I sat and watched for an hour as she got better and better at parallel parking....with the driver's side next to the curb. But she did a very good job of it.
