Any suggestions on a good (local) driving school for Teenagers ?

The only ones I can find are all theory and focused on anti-aggressive driving.

I'm looking for something much more practical, hands-on e.g. defensive driving, skid-pad, emergency lane change...etc. DSF-USA might be ok.

Looking for a solid course that covers all aspects, especially focused on Defensive Driving i.e. avoiding the potential accident in the first place.

Usually around $250 for 2 days with your own car

for him to drive a car and feel what it was like to lose control and correct it(better than experimenting with your own car). I am planning on having my other son take the course next year.

What model/year is you Canon ? Most Canon's are WIA compatible meaning the system doesn't need a driver. Just plug it in.

But I'm not sure Win2003 Server even has WIA enabled. It's not something that Server versions usually have enabled. 2K, XP or Vista should be just fine.

The other alternative is use a USB SD Card reader.

next step I think is to install the XP WIA driver.
