My friend is getting his license and as a treat he wants to drive me to cedar point at the end of June. Should we go? Im not sure if I trust him driving in the city, but I want to go extremely bad, and dont know if this is a once in a lifetime thing. Should we go?

cedar point isnt in a city... its in the middle of no where. theres some commercial build up on the road that leads to the causway but its really easy to drive on. i would definately go. its well worth it.

Well we live in Eau Claire, Wisconsin...and if you look at a map it says that we must go thought chicago. Although it will mostly be on interstates, It would be scary.

It depends on how you feel about his driving. He is young and inexperianced, and may not be ready for such a long trip already. Remember, safety is your first priority. I would take a raincheck on the trip. As much as you may want to go, see if you can wait until next year once he has a few miles under his belt.

He is actually a very good driver. his name is kory and he has been driving almost 75% of his life. I guess I do trust him.I also have my license so I will drive some.

I just want to go because i havent been on anything over 250 feet, and thats power tower at valleyfair, for coasters its 210 and thats wild thing which isnt that great. I ust want to hit millenium force and TTD, I wouldnt mind doing everything else, but i would like to set a record on millenium force.
