Listen to Eric, he knows whereof he speaketh.

Yer Kindly ol' Unka Bart turned 16 on 5/10/55 and promptly hied himself down to 
the Augusta, GA city hall to take the driving test.

10 questions, true/false.

Drive around a two-block rectangle with aged cop in passenger seat.  Promptly 
run stop sign on first cross-street corner.  Cop says "Why'd you go through that
there Stop-sign?  Didn't you see it?"  

"What sign?" sez I.  "There was one on the corner.  Pay closer attention next 
time" sez he.

Cop then issued my license without delay or further mention of the sign...
