2. Talk to him and help him if he wants, otherwise butt out :).
3. I see so many in this thread blaming the instructor. Once again, it is the peoples responsibility to read and know the laws.
Just my 2 cents,

I agree completely with what Ron said. Anyone who relies on their instructor will have an incomplete, often inaccurate education about CHL information.txinvestigator wrote:Interesting. If your assertion that it is solely the student's responsibility then why certify instructors and make students take a class?
Students rely on the instructor to make sense of the law and explain it properly.
Having taken the course four times, I consider the instructor nothing more than an informed individual, certainly not the final authority. From this very discussion, you can see how different instructors teach the course differently.
Why certify instructors and require a class? That was the price of getting the legislation passed.
I have always printed out and studied applicable parts of the governing statutes. From the beginning, I joined PDO and other forums to get others' opinions and stay current.
