Mr. Jenner. Your father?
Mrs. Paine. My father. And insisted that he get a learner's permit before he would drive on the street.
Mr. Jenner. At that moment and at that time he acted, in any event in your presence, as though he himself thought——
Mrs. Paine. That is right.
Mr. Jenner. He would be capable of driving an automobile from your home to the parking area in which you were about to give him a lesson. That was your full impression, was it not?
Mrs. Paine. Yes. I should add that, as I am recalling, he did drive a portion of the way, he drove in fact, it is about three blocks, to the parking lot. I was embarrassed to just tell him "No, don't." But I did, in, effect, on the way there, when he was on the street, driving on the street in my car, when we got there I said, "Now, I am going to drive back." I didn't want him to.
Mr. Jenner. From your home to the parking lot?
Mrs. Paine. The first time before we had any lesson at all. And at that time I made it clear I didn't want him to drive in the street. Also, it became clear to me in that lesson that he was very unskilled in driving. We practiced a number of the things you need to know, to back up, to turn, right angle turn to come to a stop.
Mr. Jenner. Was this on the parking lot?
Mrs. Paine. This was all on a parking lot.
