Sounds like a hard working young adult who has her head aimed in the right direction, as a parent well done.i'm sure she will appreciate your efforts in helping her out with her first car.Safety has a lot to do with sensible driving skills and it sounds like she probably has them. I'd buy her a good used Civic and help her out as much as possible on her future educational objectives
