New drivers

Monday morning we pulled off I-80 at North Platte, Nebraska. We pulled up to a red light waiting to make a left turn. As we were waiting, a driver ed car approached from our left. As the light began to turn red in their direction, the student driver slammed on the brakes. She and the instructor would have both hit the windshield had they not been wearing seat belts. To make matters worse the student driver rolled another ten feet and slammed on the brakes again. Same result. Our daughter and I were in the front seats. We started laughing as we watched the instructor began to give instructions on sudden stops. As we turned left we did give her a thumbs up. It reminded both of us of when our kids were learning to drive (we joked that we had the body shops on speed dial). As we were leaving North Platte, we saw the same driver ed car but with a new driver.
Report card: needs to work on coming to stops at traffic lights
