Kim and Ron are taking Drivers Ed, which most of the students are nervous but Kim remains confident that she'll do a good job. However, when she chokes up and fails the initial test, she soon learns that the pressure of the test is far greater than any foe she has fought. Meanwhile, Dr. Drakken has kidnapped a scientist who specializes in artificial intelligence, Kim gets a visit from an unexpected guest that may be able to help her out. Kim is visited by an automated car who's owner has been kidnapped by Drakken. After cheating by the car leads to a stellar pass, she must overcome her guilt to foil Drakken's improved army of Destructo-Bots. My favorite part of this episode is when Kim is running away with Ron from an automated car and when we see Kim drive to safety with Ron and the scientist that was kidnapped by Drakken.moreless

This episode is sorta like the coming of age episode. I think this because Kim was having trouble with her driving test and after a talking car cheated for her, she had to drive to save her and three other people's lives. She said she couldn't because the car cheated for her, the car said that Kim did all the driving herself. Kim then realized she could do anything. She did drive, and she saved the lives of three people. Then it was confession time. The car then said that it was itself who drove the test, but it was kim who saved their lives. Kim then as an adult, re-took the test, on her own, only to lower her grade from a A++ to a B-
This shows that kim realized what she had to do. She even passed. Ron on the other hand may need a ride from Kim every know and again.moreless

Trivia
ADD TRIVIA
- Kim knows how to drive motorcycles and other vehicles during her missions, and yet she feels self-conscious and unfamiliar with driving a car for her driving test. Edit
- It seems highly impossible for students to be expected to drive on their first day of Driver's Ed. Edit
- Kim has to drive S.A.D.I.E. out of Drakken's headquarters because the blast from Shego's ray damaged her internal guidance system, or something, meaning she could no longer drive herself. But when S.A.D.I.E. confesses to having cheated on Kim's driving test, she clearly pulls up to Kim on her own, sans driver. Edit
