You might be on to something here . I just picked up another potential one . When Chris kills the cop who supposedly killed his dad , a tv show is playing in the background where they are talking about a character called Finnerty . <| sep |> Not a driving instructor . But was a student along with another student . Other student had received his permit the day we were to go driving . I already had my permit for half a year and drove on the interstate frequently . So we go driving in our fancy 2000 Malibu and instructor wants to go on the interstate . The other student gets on the onramp but doesn ' t accelerate ! ! He ' s at 55 and there ' s an 18 wheeler in the right lane braking because he can ' t get over to the left lane . This kid just start pulling onto the interstate . That 18 wheeler was right on our ass and still braking ! I thought I was going to die . This kid could have been singing tunes while the instructor and I prayed that 18 wheeler didn ' t hit us . We headed back down south for my turn at driving and luckily there was a waterspout so the drivers ed teacher called it a day . I drove myself home in the Malibu which was towards the waterspout , heh . I wonder if the instructor ever had a talk with my peer about how to not kill people .
