Stick Shifts and Safety Belts...here I come.
 
Well, I probably won't be driving a stick shift anytime soon, but I did get my learners permit today. SoCal drivers, I intend you no harm, but BEWARE! all the same.

It's about time this native Angelino gets behind the wheel of a car again. First a license, then...I'll worry about getting my own damn car.

In honor of the one question I answered incorrectly (re: a driver being cited if a passenger 15 or younger isn't wearing a seatbelt; i thought both passenger and driver were cited regardless of age), I give you CAKE lyrics:

Stick shifts and safety belts
Bucket seats have all got to go
When I'm driving in my car
It makes my baby seem so far

I need you here with me
Not way over in a bucket seat
I need you to be here with me
not way over in a bucket seat

But when we driving in my Malibu
It's easy to get right next to you
I say "Baby, scoot over please"
And then she's right there next to me

I need you here with me
Not way over in a bucket seat
I need you to be here with me
Not way over in a bucket seat

Well alot of good cars are Japanese
But when we're driving far
I need my baby, I need my baby next to me

Ah..well

Stick shifts and safety belts
Bucket seats have all got to go
When I'm driving in my car
It makes my baby seem so far

I need you here with me
Not way over in a bucket seat
I need you to be here with me
Not way over in a bucket seat

Hey, congrats!

Driving in LA on a learner's permit, you will soon be dead and loving it! ;)

Here's wishing you godspeed towards a real driver's license and godspeed to all your future destinations.

:cheers: <-- This one's for me, you're driving.
