A bit obscure, but this article in the John O’Groat Journal is full of genuine wisdom.
The title – “Learning to drive does not stop when you pass your test” – couldn’t be more true. The driving test is just the first step on a lifelong learning curve.
But the comment that caught my eye was this:
DRIVING – it’s the ambition of many young people and it opens up countless opportunities. It is something we want to do from a young age. Of course then we can only use toy cars but the urge is still there. Then finally you turn 17.
This is precisely what I have been saying. Perhaps now those people who deliver lessons to children – a showy philanthropic pretence – will take note, and at least admit that their clever money-making scheme has potential drawbacks.
