Fellow Dads,
When my older daughter was a young driver, she totalled both my Rabbit and 
her Scirocco in the same winter, by using the brakes to try to stop a skid.  
 I insisted that she participate in an SCCA Autocross Driver's School the 
next Spring, where she learned NOT to lock up the brakes when she skids.   
Apparently that lesson stuck, as she hasn't had an accident since and she's 46 
now.
And everyone's disclaimer applies to me, too: lost my license for 90 days 
at 16 following two tickets.
Most of us learn the hard way.
George
