Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.

Our Rules:

  1. Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.

  2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.

  3. Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.

  4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

  5. No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.

US here. At my high school, Driver’s Ed was in the curriculum. We were taught the various laws and got a manual to study from, but we never got behind the wheel. At the end of the course (which I believe was a quarter in length), we got to take the written test, and if we passed, we got our learning permit. That would allow you to drive with supervision (including driving lessons) until you became 17 and passed the driving test.

In regards to the original post, we never got that sort of stuff. Around homecoming and prom, there was a special police car parked near the school whose back half was painted to resemble a taxi, and had “Choose your ride” written on it.
