certainly worth a few calls around. I've had 18 year olds drive, but never such a new driver. that may be different???
I lived down the street from a high school in an affluent area in North Carolina.
Every year I would see kids with new cars and new drivers license driving down my street exceedingly carefully. White knuckles, driving slow, eyed glued to the road ahead!
2 weeks later, I'd see the same kids driving down the same street with a carload of giggling teens.
They'd have one hand on the steering wheel, one hand on the radio, they'd be looking into the back seat and having a conversation with those sitting back there. In 2 weeks they were now expert drivers.
Listening to a nice young man talking about being 18 with "a lot of driving experience "and the
rig is only a truck and trailer with equipment on it.
That is something that can do a lot of damage. It could kill a lot of people 10 minutes from the shop.
Insurance nightmare.
I remember my youngest at 18 years old. She was complaining about State Farm ripping us off. How much money they are making on us!
I replied, Are they? In 2 years we have hit 5 deer. We have had 2 cars stolen. We have totaled 3 cars. Seriously!
