driving letter
Dear Mom and Dad,
I’ve really been thinking about this whole driving incident, These past few days have made me see it differently. I’ve learned that this isn't necessarily about keeping insurance rates down or keeping a good reputation, Head injuries are extremely common in car accidents and after seeing what happened to Zack, I could never let you guys go through that. Doing what I did, and driving how I used to, is a good way to critically injure myself, or someone else… What has happened to Zack has really showed me that I’m not invincible, and things can happen to anyone at anytime no matter who you are. This has really shown me that I need to be even more responsible than I originally thought. My first impressions on getting ungrounded was that I just wouldn't get any tickets or screw around anymore, but now I realize I need to protect myself as well as others on the road. I promise there will be no more bending the rules and breaking your laws and the state of Florida laws. I’ve realized there is a much deeper message in this than just paying my tickets and being grounded. I’ve come up with a system that could be used to keep me in check, and make things easier for you guys. It should also really help me gain my trust back. I might be the closest thing to hell you've ever raised but I need to learn from my mistakes and pave the way for the man I have to become, because I can’t stay a boy forever.
Basically how this would work is we would have a points system. Originally, to get a truck I had to drive incident-free for 6 months, obviously I screwed that up. I thought about just doubling the time to 12 incident-free months, but I realized that wouldn't be enough for you guys to consider. So instead, we would have a 120 point system. To get a truck, I must acquire 120 points. I can acquire 10 points a month, so at bare minimum, it would take me a course of 12 months to get a truck. There would be a chart like this.This is a great system because I can
