Kit Kat the Driver

Today Kit Kat and Momoko returned to the motor vehicles administration to take the driver's test. I got the call early in the afternoon. Kit Kat passed the test. It is pretty rigorous in our state. You need to pass a closed circuit driving test. You also have to go out in traffic with the test administrator.

Kit Kat did some practice this morning with Momoko. They practiced parallel parking. Kit Kat said she almost went over the time limit for parallel parking during the test. But she made it. Kit Kat did not ask for her test score. All she knows is that she passed.

Now that she is licensed, Kit Kat is already driving by herself. She went to Burget King for lunch by herself. She also drove Little Kat to the library. I suspect this trend shall continue. The only downside is that Kit Kat needs to be an insured driver. Ka-ching.

License Denied

Yesterday Kit Kat was scheduled to take her driving test to get her license. She had done her homework. She practiced parallel parking with Momoko. She also practiced backing into a parking space with me. Her friend gave her the details on the road test at a specific test location.

Momoko took the day off from work to take Kit Kat to her driving test appointment. They went early to the test location. Kit Kat apparently passed the closed circuit portion of the test. They have a special parking lot in the back of the building where they see whether you know how to stop at the stop sign, parallel park, and back into a space.

Next Kit Kat was off to do the real road test. As she was exiting the parking lot of the test building, she says her back tire hit the curb. This caused an auto fail. She was not granted a license to drive. She has scheduled a retest next month. Perhaps we need to get out there and give Kit Kat more practice. We need that license!

Kit Kat is Driving

During our Spring Break vacation, Kit Kat studied the driving laws of our state. Yesterday she passed the test to get a learner's permit with a 100% score. Now she can drive with an adult.

Little Kat and I spied on Kit Kat as she practiced driving Momoko's car in and out of the driveway. Late last night the family went for an ice cream run to McDonald's. I had Kit Kat back Momoko's car out of the driveway and turn it around.

Today is the big day. I am going to have Kit Kat drive me to her friend's house. Luckily Kit Kat's friend only lives about 3 miles from our house. Kit Kat is a bit nervous because we need to drive on a busy street (she calls it a highway). But I think she will do fine.
