Yeah... I guess not.

I need to teach my Aunt how to drive....
She was trying to close up the window at the back seat, looking
at the back window....
while she kept the car rolling....

It was the red light.... and my mom said, "Don't hit that truck!!!!"

My aunt, "What?"

And she looked, she hit the brake fast.
Everybody in the car almost got a whiplash.

And we were looking for a new house for my Aunt...
my Aunt won't slow down...

There was this little hump in the middle of the street....
It was like we were flying in the air....

My mom said, "I need to put on my seatbelt, my sister drives crazy!!!"

Yeah, maybe you need to come to Tennessee or Mississippi....
to teach everyone here how to drive... cause the state don't give
driving test to old drivers. But only to new drivers.

Is there anyway you can tell your high school driving instructor to share his stories about his old days of teaching high school kids how to drive? I would love to hear it from your driving instructor...smile

I wish... his name is AL Whitt, when he retired, last time I heard he moved to eastern coast so I dunno

The American School for the Deaf has Deaf teachers teaching the drivers education courses. It was a bit of a battle because the state told us we couldn't have that - but we won!

Kalista

The Learning Center for the Deaf in Framingham, MA. He is Deaf Driving instructor for years ! He did a great job to the Deaf students who passed their driver license on road test.

I think the person who taught driver's ed at my school was deaf, but not sure.

Personally, I would have a nervous breakdown if I had to teach people how to drive .
