These driver's ed guys are the same one's who said "shift at 3500 rpm"...  :-)
These are also the folks who said "don't drive over 55mph"
To their credit, I can't believe these guys also tell people to wear their
seatbelts and there are people who don't, thinking "I'll be better if I'm
thrown from the car" - yeah, right - how do you think the idea for ground
beef came about?

No flaming intended to you teacher types...  You have more nerve than I to
drive next to a fresh 16yr old novice...
