when you first did your driving test 🤔

Growing up on a working farm, I had been driving for four years before I took my driving test. I was home-schooled, and we lived out in the boonies, so they allowed mom (a certified teacher and retired professor) to teach me the class, but I had to test in town at the high school (for the driver's ed course). I passed that and got my learner's permit. Daddy had me chauffeuring him around in a '72 Chevy truck with three on the tree. I used that truck to take my driving test. When the officer got in, he stopped, looked at me, and asked if I was sure I could drive it. I said yes, sir...and we took off. I made a couple of turns, got it out on the highway, and then parallel parked it before driving back to the DPS building. He told me that any kid who shows up in a standard on a driving test and can handle it passes in his book. The written was easy.
