Driver's License
61 boy and car
At this time, in Texas, a 14 year old who had passed Driver Education could get an unrestricted driver license. I took Driver Education at Beaumont High School and did the driving in a Ford with dual controls. Standard shift, clutch and ‘three on the tree’ was a complication that I mastered.
I got my license in the summer of my 14th year, 1960. One privilege was top take the family car to my job at Tyrrell Public Library.
This photo was taken after church - I was in my Sunday best and my sunday school material is on the trunk.
