Watchout Newfoundland and Labrador...part 2





Tyler is now a licenced driver! The above picture was taken just over eight months ago ..... he'd just received his beginner's permit.

Yesterday....he took the road test and passed with flying colours (made only one small mistake).

No more road tests (Only one road test required in this province) and he's thankful for that. The only restrictions on him.....he can't drive alone between midnight and 5:00 a.m. (unless it's for work....then a note from his employer would be all he'd need to get around this).

The extra insurance cost was a bit of a concern for us (we'd heard many horror stories of outrageous costs when sons are added)....so the $500.00 was a little easier to swallow. He's agreed to pay half of that....so all in all...it's not too bad.

Congratulations, Tyler!!!

Congrats to your son, and empathy for you all as you adjust to your teen driving!!!! I always thought it was a happy time but added worry to a mother's world.

Thanks TC!

Thanks, Renee....I agree. I've been thinking it will be great to have him do some errands...but then wonder if the worrying part will be worth it.
