Time for catching up!

I'm working on my list from a couple posts ago and this is the Ironic Moped Story...ahem, now that we are on the same page...

So nearly 2 months ago Max went to the DMV to get his Motorcycle endorsement so he could legally drive the moped.

Before we get too deep into the story, let me introduce my safety conscious husband, when he drives the moped he wears a full on motorcycle helmet, (I've seen very few if any people on campus wearing helmets while driving mopeds), he drives the speed limit in any vehicle, he has great insurance, he studied the DMV manually very thoroughly etc...you may be thinking that these are common neccessary safety procedures, however; in Utah, driver saftey is really not too common...Anyway point being (and i still don't know if this has much to do with the story) that Max is an incredibly good driver and very cautious and safe! I love him for that!

So he has been diving the moped for months with a permit and he does just fine. This one Thursday he goes into the DMV to do a driving test for his endorsement and he crashes and flies off the Moped. But here's the thing...he still passes....Only in utah can you crash your driver's test and still pass.
Thank you Utah for Putting safe drivers on the road!

The reason he did crash was because the DMV tester asked him to drive as fast as we could and when he got to a mark on the road he needed to swerve around it. This is when he fell off. The Tester must have just felt bad. We are happy he passed but seriously...

  1. That is one strange test. Who would think you would need to drive as fast and you can when you see that there is an obstacle up ahead? hahaha
    Good Job Max.
