Title: He passed his CBT
Post by: Vamps on 20 June 2008, 19:35:27: Well my 16 year old passed his CBT today. :y :y :y
Sorted out Insurance etc, eventually, and he wants to go and see his friends before going away for the weekend. :y
Whilst I am nearly as excited as he is, swmbo does not share the same enthusiasm, and remember he is my step son so I have no legal basis for making such decisions. If, God forbid, anything happens well....................................... :exclamation :exclamation :exclamation

Grin from ear to ear. He toured 4 villages seeing his mates, 33 miles in 1 hour, said to him I thought 30mph was it's top speed, he said, with a huge grin, 'yes but it goes 36mph down hill' ;D ;D

I had the Honda SS50, freedom :y and none of this restricted to 30mph busniess either, which I feel is more dangerous. :(

He has been googling to find how to de-restrict it. :-X :-X :-X

I'd leave it like that for as long as possible. No 1 son has just told me of his latestencounter with PC Traffic Plod. Fortunately he gave my lad a bo11ocking which preserved my lad's licence.
