Reply to comment by Dizzy_Necessary8860 in Curious about drivers merging onto the highway by EthicalBribes

I did my driver's test in 1999, and am originally from one of the lovely towns in central Mass that has both an RMV and is conveniently located right on rt. 2. I most definitely had to go on the highway for my driver's test. Not all my peers did, but I did. Definitely depended on the officer you got back then. (do they still have state troopers sit in the passenger seat or is it someone from the RMV?)

Someone from the RMV.... Sounds like the Leominster RMV!

Correct :) It's good that they changed that. Having a state trooper in your car definitely freaked the hell out of a lot of 16 year olds. As an old person now, maybe it was a good thing :)
