    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.

                        Well, I'd have to get a tux. And today? Such short notice! Where would I get one? I'd definitely fail.

                          Recently, I did actually pass some one on the right. Technically, it wasn't illegal because there wasn't a road on the right.

                              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. :)

                                      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.

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

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

                                          The question was really intended for all people whose first name is Bob and live in the Northern Hemisphere and who only drive on Thursdays at 1pm, while wearing a green scarf. ;)
