today my dad had him drive him to the tattoo parlor, because he was getting his tattoo going up his arm, around hsi back, and then down his other arm
so after he had finished, it hurt sitting in the car so he said "get me home as fast as you can"

we drove 30 miles in bout 5 minutes
all my dad said the entire time was "dont ever let me catch you doing this again, but for now, somethings beeping"
so i slowed down just before passing a cop

I think that falls under it's own category. My Dad would never do that, but my Mum would. She yelled at me to go 60 in a 40 zone my 3rd time driving, because she needed to get back home fast.

I think it's a great idea. Insurance companies do it here for young male drivers...brings down there insurance as its huge in ireland if your under 21 male and without 3 yrs no claims bonus. Also do it (I think) in uk with some R drivers. It makes ppl drive safer thats for sure

Sure does, though I think more women need it here than us young lads do...Some crazy chicks in my high school...One girl got a Mercades as her FIRST CAR! Im not even getting my own car...Curse my parents' morals!

Yeah, but with a Mercades she's much more likely to drive safely than with a 20 year old car that's about to fall apart...
