Obtain SIN and pass the written driving test = overseas resident?
My second Q is:
If I just obtain the SIN and apply to a written driving test and say,
pass. Then I go back to Hong Kong to work right after. Do I need to pay
Canadian tax during the period I'm outside Canada? i.e can I treat myself
still as an overseas resident (no need to pay Canadian tax).
Thanks a lot.Again the asnwer is no you would not be a resident of Canada from what
you describe in your question....
Excessive Speed on Wisconsin Highways
I'm concerned about the speed with which a number of drivers travel the
roads in Wisconsin, particularly in Waukesha County. Perhaps it's the
pace of life today but I don't recall the roads being so threatening
years ago. What's it going to take for our local governments to step up
enforcement of posted speeds? I live on a county trunk highway posted
for 55 MPH and that's about fast enough. Line of sight distance is
limited, surfaces vary, shoulders are non-existent and farm equipmen...
Do we need to create Virtual devices in Windows 2000 if we want to
work with Windows 2000 1394 drivers like 1394bus
1. Do we need to create Virtual devices in Windows 2000 if we want to
work with Windows 2000 1394 drivers like 1394bus.sys and ohci1394.sys.
Please explain if we need them. I think a higher driver like 1394diag
that can accept the request from User Application and call 1394bus is
all we need. I think virtual devices are needed only in Windows XP.
2. I use windbg command 'ed ohci1394!ohcidebuglevel 5' to elevate ohci
debug level for more prints, I still get very few prints. Is the

Utah brings competition to the public education monopoly
The state of Utah has just passed a landmark educational voucher program
under which every family, depending on its income, will be reimbursed
between $500 and $3,000 per child for annual tuition paid to the private
school of their choice.
This will now give parents of modest means options that the well-to-do
have long enjoyed. Their school-age children will no longer be a captive
audience. Parents will be empowered as educational consumers, giving them
choices and leverage con...
US Driving Skill ???
US in F1 ??
Y.O.Y. are there not more N.American drivers in Formula 1 ??
I'm sure that most people would say that Formula 1 racing
requires a higher level of driving skill than Noddy - sorry -
Indy Car racing (there are numerous examples of this, Mansell,
Andretti etc.).
So the reason can't be that they figure they've reached the
pinnacle of a driver's career when they get to Indy and don't
wish to progress. I doubt also that the financial rewards in
Indy
etc, can...
question on truck driving school test
What is the only thing a truck can't deliver?
(no kidding, this is bonus question on last week!)Ya, a baby was my guess, but what is this "forbidden goods"?
The question did not state legal or illegal. Drugs/contraband are
hauled by truck everyday, some get caught, some don't. So even though
forbidden goods are forbidden, they still get delievered by truck.
FYI, this is a real question at a real truck driving school offered
by the local vocation school....
How do I choose a truck driving school?
I'm new to this group and have a question. I am considering taking up truck driving. I am a software engineer who was laid off in October 2002 and have been unable to find work. I see dozens of jobs in the classifieds every day for drivers with CDLs. How do I choose a truck driving school? Which ones are the best? Which ones will help me get a job after I graduate and get my CDL? I am in the Phoenix, AZ area. I have a clean driving record, excellent map reading skills, and enjoy driving....
Why Get an Education?
If cement truck drivers, longshoremen, bus drivers can make the money
they
can make in Honolulu, what incentive does a child have to go through the
expense and pain of going to college?It prepares them for a life on the Mainland?
When they can't get a job as a truck driver, longshoreman or bus driver?
Or as a clerk in the District Court?
I went in to the district court the other day to pay a traffic fine.

BMW Driving School, Toronto?
I was wondering if the BMW driving school level 1 in Toronto is worth
the $500. Also, are the cars manual or automatic or do you have a
choice?
I'd like to learn how to do the advanced driving but I only own a 330
auto and don't know how to drive a manual.That's a definite 'maybe'. Most BMW *CCA* schools cost a little less
than that ($300-400) for two days on a racetrack. If this is a $500
half-day school then I start to wonder about the cost/benefit ratio.
(Oops! Is that $...
Texas Motorcycle License ... driving test
I passed the written portion of the motorcycle driving test tonight and just
have the driving part to deal with now. I do know about the $180 class that
will allow me to skip the driving portion but would prefer to not spend that
much as I just dropped $$ on my bike. Can you all give me any pointers on
things to practice for the driving portion? It's going to be a pain to get
a driver, a car and the bike to the DMV for the test during work hours so
I'd like to make sure I pass the...
Texas Driving Licence
I leave For Texas March 2nd, I was wondering if any of you have any info
on when I can apply for my Texas driving Licence and how I go about it?1. When you get to Texas, the first thing you want to do is get your SS#. K1's
are allowed to get a SS# to work, but do not wait until after you get married
because they will not give you one because you are considered out of status.
2. Get married
3. Go to DPS office with SS#, passport, and marriage certificate with you new
last name and ask...
Teen Driving Rules
My 15 year old nephew was riding with a 16 year old friend and was in a
serious auto accident. (From which he will recover- Than God). This got
me thinking as I have a 14 year old daughter with an October birthday
(which means she will turn 16 one month after her sophomore year) who is
promising all her friends that she'll drive them to school!
What are rules you use wuth teenage drivers?
Can they drive at night?
With other passengers?
What rules do you set on who your teen can r...
Do you have to take driving test?
I'm going to be moving back home to California in the next few months after
years of living out of state. My current DL (Texas) was renewed in 2000 for
six years (I have an excellent driving record--no tickets, no accidents). I
know I'll be required to take the written test when I apply for my
California license, but what about the driving test?Probably not. I didn't have to take it; I'd never had a CA license
before and my record wasn't exactly clean. They gave me a license and

Does anyone know of any stunt driving schools, preferably in the
north-east
Does anyone know of any stunt driving schools, preferably in the
north-east?
I want to get my sister some lessons for her 30th birthday. All I can
find is Bobby Ore's school in Cali, and it's only open to members of the
SAG.Not really...stunt driving is one of those things that's dangerous even if
you know what you're doing. Rarely can you just go in and take a lesson
without being an actor or professional stuntman....

Good driving school in Dallas, TX
I'm looking for a driving school in DFW area. Could anybody recommend
a good adult driving school/instructor?
I got my learning permit already and I need "behind the wheel"
instructions only.
I've heard that Sears driving school has a bad reputation... I've
found a couple of other driving schools like: "All American Driving

reviews about them.
Thanks a lot for any advice!Go to AAA, they tend to have ...
driving school in San Jose/Santa Clara ; new driver insurance
After living many years in the south bay area, I have finally decided to
take the plunge and learn to drive, since there are some trips that my
bicycle and public transit just don't permit when living in suburbs.
I learned the driving code with the DMV handbook and passed the DMV
written test easily the first time in november with 2 errors (apparently
a good enough score to be a driving instructor around here ;)). However,
I don't have any experience behind the wheel. I just went...
Need Help on New Jersey Driving School
My wife just came from overseas. She is looking for
driving schools in central NJ, so she can take lessons
and get her driving licence.
I have 3 questions:
1. Should she take written test first before she contacts
any driving school?
2. What driving school did you use before? Any
recommendations? What to look out for?
3. For someone who does not know driving at all,
usually how many hours of lessons does he/she require?
Thanks in advance,NJ driver's lic...
SafestWay driving school vs. Me
I signed my soon-to-be 16 year old daughter for driving
lessons at Safest Way, the local driving school. We signed
up for the 3 required lessons for her to get her license.
She completed the first two lessons. Her third lesson was
on a late Monday afternoon. She found out the Saturday
before that a program in school she is involved in changed
its meeting time to Monday afternoon. So we had to change
the driving appointment.
OK. The literature from the driving school ...

The best place to find a race car for sale is at the track.

Any opinion about Quia Driver Education?
And you know just as little about philosophy as you do about physics,
if such a thing be possible. You read his criterion for beauty --
"that which is beautiful is that which has subjective purposiveness
for cognition" -- with all the understanding of a three-year-old
reading Karl Marx. It seems simple to you because, Martijn, you
haven't the foggiest notion of what it means. Nietzsche did not
"overthrow" Kant's notions here, any more than anyone else did; and

What I'm looking for:
My father is turning 60 this month. He's an avid driver, who enjoys
spirited sports-car driving on twisty roads and such (keeping within the
law, of course), but he has no aspirations of making a career of
becoming a professional F1 driver (esp at age 60).
I'd like to treat him to a nice birthday gift for us to attend one of
these 2-3 day courses at either Skip Barber (Laguna Seca)...
Any information about the driving portion of the test would be appreciated?
I just bought a new Suzuki DL1000 V-Strom last week and I don't have a
motorcycle license yet. Well, I passed the written test so I have a
"learner's" permit. Which seems weird since I've driven motorcycles since I
was a teenager, but I haven't had a motorcycle license in 25 years.
Nonetheless, to get my license I still have to take a driving test.
So, I'm wondering what exactly does a California motorcycle driving test
consist of? I heard it is some kind of skills test but my questi...

I wonder if it is part of the canteen culture and
drivers exchange stories of their 'kills' over tea?
Hobson Street behind M&S and Woolworths is a favourite spot for this.
The bus accelerates on the right hand side of the road towards the
cyclist (not always me) forcing the cyclist to stop or get onto the pavement.
This happened again to me this morning at 11am with a 77 Park and Ride
bus. The road was empty with, unusually, no delivery vehicles. It
seems as though it is some sort of game for some bus drivers to
intimidate cyclists. I wonder if it is part of the canteen culture a...
Any suggestion about Play Driver Ed?
The symptom you describe here is typical of a MIDI driver problem, not
surprising as Win2K is relatively new and the Live's drivers probably
haven't been shaken down thoroughly enough. Try deselecting every other
MIDI driver in the Options | MIDI Devices menu, ensuring that Cakewalk is
only talking to the MIDI interface on your SBLive. If the problem persists,
try deleting the file 'ttsseq.ini' from your Cakewalk folder and try it
again. If none of this helps, you may want to chec...

How do you think about Parent Taught Drivers Ed?
He will be 16 next year and can get his drivers' license. We have Geico
insurance, and I think that they sock it to you of the dependent doesn't have
a certificate from a driving school or has taken drivers' ed in public school.
Might be unaffordable unless he can get the price break for having completed an
acceptable
course. I think I heard that there is some computer driving simulator /course
that does qualify but don't know the name of the program. He is already set
up with a...

OK, now, I've told you my disability, I've told you my wants and needs.
Now, how're you going to adapt driver's ed for me? It's Show 'n Tell time.Let's look at Rodney's obsession with Driver's Ed. I had an excellent
course in Driver's Ed--I credit that course with my accident free driving
record. We talked about driving, and we got away from school to drive,
but the focus of the class was on safety awareness and what to do in an
emergency. I would dread to think of a Driver's ed cou...
Do you know about Paloma Driving School?
No wonder everyone in Harmony's so f**king stupid... they stay in
daycare until they're adults. lol
I think the last Harmonians to go to h.s. were Jessica, Simone and
Paloma. They graduated fairly recently. We know when the show first
started TLF and Whitney were in high school. We don't have ANY proof
ANY of them went to public school (I guess what Americans would call
elementary school, grades JK or K to grade 8).

Anyone knows about Pa Driving Test?
Again, good info for those who want to buy a german car over in
Germany and drive it around for a while. It looks like the american
women of there can't seem to pass the drivers test or don't want
to go through the red tape in order to get the classes.
Next time I go, I'm going to get an International license. Maybe even
a german license via the reciprocity since I live in PA.

Would I be able to exchange my UK driving licence for Ontario's Driving licence
or do I have to take a driving test.
Would I be able to exchange my UK driving licence for Ontario's Driving licence
or do I have to take a driving test.I'm afraid for Ontario you'll have to take a test.
Ontario has a graduated lisence system, starting with a basic written test to
get your G1 lisence which is pretty similar to an Learners Permit in UK.
then you have that for i think 8-12 months and then you can take a practical
test to get a G2 lisence which allows you to drive on yoru own but has
restrictions like you ...
I'm wondering how long realistically it would take me to be prepared for

I'm wondering how long realistically it would take me to be prepared for
a UK driving test. To put into context, I got a US license in 1994, but
I let it lapse (after moving to the UK) and haven't driven for the last
couple of years. I don't intend to own a car, but on a few occasions, I
think it might be useful to hire one. I've driven in the UK quite a few
times in the past (hire cars), and grew up here, so I'm not completely
unfamiliar with the roads. That said, I have only ever d...

Any experience about Online Drivers Education?
The above is where I disagree. In my state's driving manual (yours may
be different) it clearly states that there is NO EXCEPTION to the speed
limit (though we ALL know that you can do up to about 10 MPH right past
a cop and be pretty safe not getting pulled over if you're traveling
with traffic) including when passing. This is what the drivers manual
says, this is what I was taught in Driver's Education. As a matter of
fact, from my state's online driver's manual:

Driving is one of the few activities in life where you feel completely alone,
How do you think that?
I'm with the other responders to this post. Your truck is not, in any way,
designed for speeds over 100 mph. There is no crackhead driver in the world
that you need to pass so badly that you have to risk your life and the lives
of everyone on the road around you. You may want to take a quick peek in
your mirror the next time you call another driver a crackhead (but PLEASE,
slow down to 80 or so first). I fear that the advice being given to you
here will not make a difference in y...
So what is the big deal about driving an overpriced race car?
Ever see a thing called the Olympic Games? Did you notice that there are
like thousands of people with impressive skills? The fact that there are
only a dozen silly overpriced F1 cars does not mean there are only a dozen
people who can drive them. There are at least 120 million people walking
around and chewing gum who could drive them. And I am being conservative.
The fantasy that people build around F1 is way overblown. The Navy and Air
Force train thousands of people to be pilo...

Any advice about Ohio Drivers Education?
Actually, the worst was _Signal 30_ which from what I understand is still
required viewing for Maryland and Ohio highschool Drivers' Education classes.
It's waaay lame except for the ripped-apart-real-people-in-death-and-agony
scenes; some cinematography is timeless. In _Signal 30_ I particularly
disliked the scene with the guy who got thrown seatbeltless from his undamaged
convertible when he jumped a median - his little eeking noises still make me
