Driver's Ed, a novel by Caroline B. Cooney, is a cautionary tale that explores the themes of responsibility, consequences, and the impact of seemingly harmless choices on individuals and their communities. The story follows high school students Remy Marland and Morgan Campbell who, along with their peers, are taking a driver's education class. Eager to gain the freedom that comes with a driver's license, they are also exposed to the serious responsibilities of driving. One night, on a dare, Remy and Morgan steal a street sign as a prank. This seemingly minor act of rebellion leads to a tragic accident when an elderly woman is killed because the missing stop sign causes confusion at an intersection. The novel delves into the aftermath of the accident, the guilt and moral dilemmas that Remy and Morgan face, and the ripple effects their actions have on their families and community. Through this narrative, Cooney addresses the importance of making ethical decisions and the harsh realities that can result from thoughtless behavior.
