Jen 😝😝😝 no thanks. Also I do all the belt stuff - I put it on and take it off and clean it. They just give me a key for a minute to unlock.
I assume you still need to demonstrate that you are locked to them or something. Or is that another logbook you need to keep now?
But that sounds like a reasonable arrangement - if it is there to stay until you are close to getting a license. The way their demands have been increasing lately, I am slightly worried for you.
carg You might even start to feel naked without the belt, once you've got your driving license and stop wearing it
I think they will have some arrangement in store for when she has completed her license. Like she can only drive the car if she has accumulated enough locked hours in the past week or something.
carg I don't see how 12 hours a day will work on school days: if you are not going to wear it outside the house then you'd have to wear it every school night !? (considering the night lasts about 8 hours, and 12 hours belted at home, would leave only 4 hours for school + travel, let alone meeting with friends, etc.)
To me it looks like the arrangement will include overnight wear on at least some days. Or stay locked every waking hour on the weekend. In this case, more total time in the belt (12 hours instead of 6-7 per day plus two nights) is the price for the added flexibility. So, let us see... 8-hour nights, averages out to about 2.3 hours per day over the week. Add that to 6.5 hours of afternoon belt wear, we get 8.8 hours average in the previous arrangement. So that would be 3.2 hours more per day, or 22.5 hours a week - that is two and a half more nights worth of belt wear over your previous arrangement. You should probably seek some help negotiating.
