Joe,
Not all states allow our coaches to be driven with just a driver's license. Most will allow it, but not all.
Even if they all allowed it there are some folks that just do not want to drive a bus. Di does not want to drive the bus. She has in the past and it is not something she wants to do. In fact, she doesn't even want to drive any of our cars, but she does to run errands and get groceries. She hates being on the road with some of the other drivers. In fact when traffic gets heavy she leaves the passenger seat and sits in the living room so she does not have to watch the other drivers forcing their way in front of us or doing other boneheaded stunts. It's probably best because she really does want a cannon mounted on the front of the coach for her use.
She also is never going to learn to fly a plane. Not even a little bit. She will gladly ride in the plane, she has moved the controls to see what it is like, but is not going to learn to drive the bus or plane no matter who is instructing.
When we were in business and had trucks she has driven them, but not willingly.

Jon, how does Di feel about driving boats? :D
I thought so.
Joe it's dinda like music and the arts. Some perform and others appreciate and enjoy. You need both parts to complete the performance. IMHO one can't exist without the other.
Some people drive while some are driven.

Actually we had a pontoon boat a long time ago. When we had time to use it she loved it. I think she drove it as much as I did, but can't remember.
I had trouble with it because I got seasick although it was only on Chautauqua Lake. I can do my canoe, but other boats I have a tendency to get sick. Acrobatics in a plane is instant puking for me also, but I can handle any turbulence on instruments all day long and that gets Di sick. Di tends to get car and bus sick.
I agree, everybody is different.

Joe,
We actually did try to have a driving class at POG 3. It's one thing when a husband and wife want to try driving instruction.
It's quite another when it's sponsored by an organization, i.e. POG. Insurance indeed became an issue at a "sponsored" event.
