Arghh. Who can say 4 essays in one week. I know I can.... And the best bit is, none of it actually goes towards anything. But we still have to do them, or we get letters home and the like. Its basically 'compulsory homework.'
Oh well. Only two more to go...

Driving is only getting harder....
Now, you may call me biased just because I'm on my L's, but I think some of these laws that are being brought in in NSW are pretty dumb. The 'enhanced' test, which they'll probably have to dumb down anyway, I can deal with, and I'll probably have to sit it, but the 120 requisite hours is ridculous. 
I don't think I need to do 120, that being the component that doesnt work retrospectively, but its still a major nuisance for new learners. They are more than doubling the number of hours you have to complete.
In the end, all I think this will do is either deter people from learning to drive in the first place, or worse, prompt people to forge their logs, which are basically unpoliceable anyway, unless you get a licencesed officer to sign off each entry, which would be absolutely ridiculous. If I'm lucky, I won't have to sit the enhanced test if I sit for my P's before July, but that may be pushing it.
Oh yeah. And no mobile phones. At all.
