: Let's ease up on Debra- there are plenty of remote parts of the country where you couldn't hit someone if you tried. My question is - what state? Was this a populated area? I think you were fortunate to find cooperative DMV personel, and am vary courious to know what state this was.

I agree lets ease up on Debra. Let us not judge Dwbra. In 1944(WW 2) at age 14, I drove most of the time out of necessity (legal driving age was 16) but not always. I was not unique. Many of the children in my area were under age drivers. I remember a neighber boy(age 12) who was the only drever in his family & did all the driving for his family.....Our deiving wasn't legal but was necessary at the time....By for now....Paul
