Driver's Education has changed drastically from when we ourselves were student drivers. During my driving certification, I was amazed at how driving tools and techniques had progressed and improved since I learned years ago. In our day, it was drive until you get it right. This would have ultimately resulted in bumps, dents or scratches on mom and dad's car.
Reference points, precision driving, point of no return, targeting, stale green or red. Do any of these terms ring a bell with your Driver's Ed training? Nope, I never heard of them until now because they didn't exist when we took Driver's Ed. These new methods have been created to help new drivers cope with the pitfalls of driving in a faster and more hurried pace that we live in today.

Permitting/Licensing
Report
Before you go down to get your permit, I hope you have been studying the Hawaii Driver's Manual. If you need one, you can buy one at Long's Drugs usually located at the front near a checkout stand or by the magazine rack. If you can answer all the questions in the back of the book without looking for the answers in the text, you are probably ready.
