Just got my driver license

[Andre S. Veteran]

Actually it was 2 weeks ago, but I feel like cheering about it a bit more. :) I got it on first try, afters months of preparation and lots of anxiety.

I still find it hard to believe that this is behind me now.

Nice job. Is it hard where you are?

[what]

Congrats. My driving test was probably the most nerve-racking thing I've ever done :p

im just taking some lessons before i go to do the test. Since my dad taught me, so it will be different to how its required by instructor.

Congratulations Dr_Asik :happy: I know very few people out of my friends who passed on their first time so it's certainly an achievement!

[Andre S. Veteran]

Actually my brother and my best friend both got it on first try too, so I felt quite a bit of pressure to achieve the same. When I parked the car and the evaluator started saying "I'll give you your license...", it was one of the greatest moments of relief in my life. Then she started criticizing my driving style, but I wasn't listening too much. :p

Is it hard where you are?

Couldn't speak in general. I have friends who tried numerous times and got failed for stupid things each time. At the same time, I made some pretty obvious mistakes during my driving test and still got it. I think trying in the winter is harder, while autumn is probably ideal (best visibility and road condition).

Well done! Now don't be stupid ;)

I thought I was the only 1 who got my drivers license late. I got my drivers license like 1 1/2 to 2 months ago and I'm already 21 (all of my friends drive). Going to be getting a car soon myself, probably a 2000 Celica GT for ~$4500 from a friend. The thing that sucks is that it's a stick (learned on an automatic) and driving an auto doesn't even feel completely natural to me yet. Oh well, another obstacle to overcome ;)

But anyway, congrats :)

Congrats Dr_Asik! (Y)

You're not the only one Se7enVII. I passed my driving test first time in the UK in July and I'm 23 :) I didn't see the point in learning at University as I knew I wasn't getting a car, so I just left it until after I graduated.

I remember how nervous I was when I had mine. But, I had the nicest guy. He could obviously tell I was extremely nervous... telling me to "Do what the law tells you" as we approached each stop sign. I was so nervous, I forgot which way I need to move the lever for my left and right turn signals. He's standing behind the car, and he says, "Okay, go ahead and hit your left turn signal". I guessed, and luckily, I was right.

Congrats. Just don't go out there and abuse it like many young people tend to do (drinking/partying comes to mind). Remember: driving is a *privilege* not a *right* (at least in the US and contrary to what many teens would like to think).

congrats :)

I don't think I've ever known anyone who failed their driving test. Sounds like the UK driving safety board be playing some hardcore mind games.

[ViZioN]

I always got the impression that the driving test in the states is a lot more laid back. Definitely not as strict as the UK anyway.
