Driving

[Danae]

I'm actually doing Drivers Ed now (going to class in the morning. ) and I find it really stressful... I'm not sure I'll be brave enough to get behind the wheel.

I had my first driving lesson yesterday with my dad in a small church parking lot. I took the class part of Driver's Ed last October, but I have not yet taken the driving part. (I will sometime in the near future, however, I hope. I just needed a little practice behind the wheel first, or I would have definately been a road hazard, lol.)

My car will be mine next July 10. It is an '07 Honda CRV; I love it.

I drove 1000 miles last weekend and now my car's dead. Woohoo!

It's strange to think that I've been driving for a quarter of my life. I got my license when I was 16, but since I was one of the youngest in my class, I was also one of the last to get my license. I got fairly accustomed to driving locally in the year or two of driving I had before heading off to college, but having driven (most of the way) across the country twice (plus having done more city driving) since then, I'm much more confident behind the wheel now. I definitely like having a car at school, and I usually enjoy going on road trips (even solo ones, which are beastlier).

My car has a name, too, so it's more fun to drive. Yipo!

Yipo? What inspired you to name it such?

I drove forward out of my grandparent's garage, did a half U-turn, and backed up the driveway! I was doing really well the first time until I hit the gas too hard and nearly backed into a tree.

I have a '97 silver Subaru missing one headlight because of a hit and run. In fact, I'll post about that because it's somewhat funny

My first car was a Honda Civic that was totaled by a driver that t-boned me in a dark intersection... Cars are a lot of trouble. I've put about $900 into this Subaru thus far.

And, I got my hand stuck in the steering wheel at the gas station and almost hit another car. Driving is dangerous!

And nearly gave me whiplash.

So sue me! Shoot... just edited your post... Going to fix it now.

I actually enjoy driving still.

I live about half an hour away from all activities that I do, so I drive quite a bit. We get a lot of traffic where I live (D.C. area), but I don't mind it at all; I find it rather calming most of the time, even a few hours worth.

I want to buy an old mail jeep because I think it would be fun to drive.

[Baragon]

My first car was like... $700 or something. I don't know. The battery died all the time 'cause it'd sit around for weeks and not be driven. My second car was my true love... a '98 red Monte.

But it died and we got the '08 Avenger... And then Top wrecked it on Saturday.

Next, I want a truck. I pretty much hate driving...

So... two days ago, I was driving home with my mother and sisters from gym class. I went to make a right turn onto a busier street, but my turn was awkward and I pulled out in front of a guy. The turn itself was jagged, and overall a bad turn. So like a half a mile later, the guy I got in front of passes us, and he screamed something out his window at me.

I won't say what it was, just that the first word was the most profane (common) swear word, followed by "ing", followed by "oxymoron" without the "oxy". Ahh I love driving.

[The Top Crusader]

I can wreck into him for you, AE!

MTO is on strike so I can't get my G1 or drive.... on the roads at least.

I would... but I had a good look at her/his' face, and it looked a lot like your mom!

Haha, same thing happened on the youth trip. My youth pastor cut in front of a motorcycle, then the guy cussed at us when he pulled up even.

[KODY 105]

I was in a car sitting at a red light when I hear this guy yelling toward my car. I rolled down my window, and the guy was cursing up a storm, looking right at me. I say, "Are you talking to my car?" He kept cursing and yelling. I eventually got him to stop his rant, and he said, "Oh, no. Not you man." Then he resumed cursing. Then I realized he was cursing at the guy behind him (through the side mirror), and not my driver. Things got so heated (to the point of one of them jokingly pulling out a baseball bat) that we missed the green turn arrow. But the guy behind me hadn't even noticed the light either, so we didn't get honked at.

Ugh, my best friend, who's a year younger than me, will have a licence before I can even drive. >:( *grr face*

Oh, that I lived in America...

Why are you driving so young?
