           The blank page stared back up at him.  Yes, he knew he knew all of the answers. He should. He'd spent the last several nights and weeks studying for the big test.  This was the biggest test of his young life. He had spent the last 9 months going all over with his older brother, mother and father, anytime there was chance for him to go.  Now he sat staring  at the test paper,  After a minute the answers came to him.   One by one he carefully  checked the questions, Several of them were trick questions, If one didn't read them carefully, they were very easy to answer wrong. But he caught them.  Twenty minutes later he finished the test, handed it back to the clerk behind the big counter.  Her waited nervously while she checked he test against the master answer list she had behind the desk. Finally she looked up and smiled, 

     "You did very good, Young man, Perfect score,  We don't get many of them." 

A few minutes later he was outside with his mother at the car.  He showed her the perfect test. Then the lady from behind the counter came out ad met them at the car,

     His mother watched nervously as he got into the driver's seat and the lady got in the passenger's seat , He started the car, waited for directions, and headed out the parking lot.  Turning right, they went down the street, and made several lane changes and various other turns, and finely came back to the parking lot,  

     His mother waited for them to return with the car. He got out with the lady, Both had big smiles on their faces.



     "Congratulations, Jimmy, You've just passed your drivers test, I'll issue a temporary licence in the office, and you'll get your permanent drivers licence in the mail within the next few weeks."

     As they drove home his mother was a mixture of pride that he had passed his drivers test on  the  first time, and that the morning hadn't been boring. and her most over ridding thought was;

Clear The Road;   Another Teenager has his Licence.  !!
