In that case, I will just have to abolish curbs.
But yeah, I was offered to drive home from dinenr tonight, but as I was projectile vomiting as soon as I stepped out side, it was a no-go. Meh. I need more practice, anyway. |

Trust me, you will always need it as long as there is curb-side parking. |

Hahaha. Doesn't that make us all idiots that cannot drive?
But thanks I will be practicing my butt off. Trust me. I've already mastered the K-turn, and backing up is no problem. But parallel parking is still on the test, for some reason. I don't know why, honestly. Living in a suburban area, it doesn't seem like I'll need it that much. |

Lesson one: All other drivers are idiots that do not know how to drive, beware.
Remember that, and you will be fine. Seriously though, congrats on passing. I missed one question when I took the test and that was because I misread it (what time you put on headlights). Passed the driving portion on the first try as well. I don't think they test on parallel parking anymore but master it just for practicality. The hardest thing I remember on the exam in terms of execution was backing up in a straight line. Also in residential streets check your surroundings constantly during the exam. Lost points on that even though I stopped for a cat darting out from under a car..... |

So I drove for the first time the other day. It was kind of tricky at first, but once I got the hang of it, all I needed to do was check my mirrors.
But honestly, things are looking okay for now. I drove on the road once, but freaked out because a minivan was speeding up behind me. Hahaha. Other than that, I mainly stuck to the high school's parking lot. |

Meh. I have to buy my own car anyway. My parents dont have the money because theyre spending it on my younger sisters car...
Xeo, you should make it your career. Be the first...and then let me join so I can learn how to drive. |

Wow... Those were the days. Getting a permit and then when you get old enough to actually get a license. No responsibilities... lol no need to buy your own car until you wrecked that one. =P |

Not a bad idea if you like driving like a slow bitch.
I joined the F-Zero circuit to learn how to drive. |

Lmao.
For some reason, using reflexes sounds like a horrible idea. Leaving it up to chance is just wrong. Haha. I already have a plan. I'm going to join a street racing crew and get my feet wet for the stuff. Sounds great, right? |

Congrats on passing the test! I would have gotten one wrong my first time(I took it once and passed as well) if I didn't go with my gut. Was probably a lucky guess really, but ehh. It's not that it's hard, it's just that some questions could have more than one answer, at least back when I took mine.
The driving is the easy part. Just practice with those reflexes. |

Hahaha XD
Yeah, I noticed. For some reason, I was expecting it to be a lot harder than it actually was. Probably because everyone says that it's so hard, and they fail about three times before they get it. I didn't get any wrong. Passed on my first shot. Now I just need to learn how to drive.. |

A 7th grader could do this.
Super easy stuff, don't worry. |
Phoenixocracy Posts: 526/2746 |
Well, I'm finally taking it in the morning. I'm thinking that it will be easy, and hopefully I'm right. Then I can start driving and have my license in two weeks. Sweet.
Now, If only I would go to sleep... |
