   I taught my kids how to drive years ago.   
   I'm almost ready to teach my grandkids how to drive.   
      
   You can bet that, while we're on the road, I will *point* to two trucks,   
   one overtaking the other, and I will tell them what to look for, as I have   
   done with my kids when I taught them, and I will let them see for themselves   
   what the truckers do.   
      
   That's how I taught my kids, who, to this day, flash the truckers when   
   the trucker overtakes them and wants to pull back in, and they thank the   
   trucker when they do the same.   
      
   I also taught them how to read mile markers, so they know what direction   
   they're going in less than a mile on any interstate.   
      
   And I taught them which direction to go when they suddenly see those   
   orange and white constructions signs (and the orange and black chevron).   
      
   I taught them how to tell which exit is the A exit and which is the B   
   exit (which depends on which direction you're going).   
      
   And lots of other things.   
   I've never had an accident, and, my kids haven't had an accident yet!
