He Passed!!!!!!

No, he won't be able to go out on his own for 6 months. Here in MS, they have to have a lerner's permit for 6 months (a licensed driver 21 or older has to be in the vehicle with them at all times) before they can get their "regular" license. And when he gets that in March, he will have a certain license showing him as a minor and he can't drive after 10:00 at night until he's 18. Laws sure have changed since I got mine - back then, permits were good for 30 days, were written on paper, and then you could go get your license which had no restrictions on times of day you could driver or not drive. But I like the laws better - some of the kids just aren't ready to drive at 15 - TJ wasn't, that's why he just got his permit last week.

He's getting some practice in and is doing a very good job
