Proceed with Caution

My younger sister is learning to drive after all these years.

I'm really proud of her because it's always been a challenge she was reluctant to take.

So she's taking lessons here in Manhattan. After two or three classes, they put her on the friggin' FDR Drive!!!! Then they drove through the South Bronx.

They say that fear can be a great motivator.

My younger sister on the FDR Drive is like teaching Janis Joplin to drive during a NASCAR event.

But hell, she's still alive and so everyone else.

Go Speed Racer!

Your sister is brave. I imagine that using your car horn figures prominently in the first lesson :-)!!
Happy Thanksgiving.

Well, you know what they say...

"If you can drive in NYC, you can drive anywhere."

How is she doing? I know a few 30-something gals who don't know how to drive yet. I hope your sis is representin'!
