Message: [QUOTE="HuskyHawk, post: 3148472, member: 1414"] That's the stuff I'm worried about. I always know what's behind me as well. I see so many adult drivers who pay no attention to what is behind them on the highway. I think it will take some time and that first trip on the highway might be a little terrifying. I worry about her attention span. These kids are so used to being constantly entertained, that they may lose focus. Maybe the danger helps, I don't know. As for the mechanics, I think the basics are easy enough, but many people don't have a good feel for how their car behaves at the limits. I think I learned a lot by doing dumb teen aged boy things back in the day, counter-steering when the rear wheels break loose, how front wheel and rear wheel drive cars behave when you lose traction front or rear. Especially here where you drive in snow, I think it's helpful to practice those things. [/QUOTE]
