Another thing that seems strange as I think back: When I was 14 years old, My dad was bad sick, he filled out some paper work for me to get a hardship drivers license, that was in 1949. I failed the driving test the first time but passed it the next week. When I turned 16 all the other kids were taking drivers ed and getting their license.
