Sarah told me that the policeman was angry. Of course, she couldn’t’ hear his voice, after he came over and spoke to them through her window, but his face certainly showed it.
It was right after that stop sign.
The one at the school.
The one in the parking lot.
The one that Sarah did stop for.
On Sunday, when the school is closed and the parking lot is vacant and where we have taken our kids to practice driving – you know, starting the car, stopping the car, shifting from 1st to 2nd gear.
Apparently, that is illegal.
In order to practice in eth school parking lot on a day that there is no school and the lot is empty, you have to have your driver’s license. Or at least your learner’s permit.
He told Sarah that “he” ( he thought Sarah was a boy ) would not be able to get her license until she was 21, if he write her a ticket.
But he just gave her a warning.
According to Larry, it would be permanently on her record until she was 21.
Since Larry is the one who explained what the police officer said to Sarah, I will let them hash out which version is right.
Sheesh, and to think we have been breaking the law all of these years and never knew it.
A real shame.
If we’d known we’d been breaking the law, we’d at least have gotten a little thrill out of it.

OMG I knew you were an idiot, but I didn't realize all 5 of you were! How could you NOT know it's illegal to drive without a permit??????
We knew it was illegal to drive on teh street- but had laways let them practice in closed parking lots ( parking lots where teh school- usually teh Jewish Day school or synagogue- wasn't in session.)
So, we are even dumber than u had thought!
