Mitsuaki recently arrived in the United States to enter university．He wants to do well in his studies and fit the new culture．But Mitsuaki has a problem．It's not his teachers．It's not even his English ability．His problem is that he doesn't have a car．Mitsuaki has already discovered a basic fact of American culture： Driving is a way of life．

Mitsuaki finally decides that he needs a car. His host family helps him find a good used car to buy. But before he gets his license and starts driving, he has to understand the American style of driving, He also needs to learn some of the basic rules of the road that good drivers follow.
