    Would you pass a formal driving test, written and road, if you took it today?

                    I haven't had to take any kind of driving test in many years and I have never been in an accident and only bee stopped once in my life and that was for speeding after I pulled a weekend of coding without sleep.

                                Based upon what I see on the roads, there's nothing formal about driving that I can surmise. :)

                                  Is that question meant for people who actually have a drivers license, or everyone?

                                    So driving in the shoulder is suddenly legal?

                                    Computers have been intelligent for a long time now. It just so happens that the program writers are about as effective as a room full of monkeys trying to crank out a copy of Hamlet.

                                      In fact, I had forgotten to renew my license a few years ago. Thankfully I was only two weeks after expiration, so they didn't make me take any tests. I was quite worried. :)

                                        So driving in the shoulder is suddenly legal?

                                        If there had been a shoulder I am sure it would be illegal but considering I was passing two drunk drivers in two pickup trucks creating a rolling roadblock because it was "funny" I would probably have been the least of the Sheriff's concern.

                                        Need custom software developed? I do custom programming based primarily on MS tools with an emphasis on C# development and consulting. I also do Android Programming as I find it a refreshing break from the MS. "And they, since they Were not the one dead, turned to their affairs" -- Robert Frost

                                          I got an 80% when I took my road driving test, and I haven't gotten any better at parallel parking...

                                          Try doing it in a semi. Its a bit more difficult

                                          If it moves, compile it
