I would say I'm a damn lucky driver. Go me.

[mylastgoodbyes]

:)

[chiranka]

And as a non-sequitor, I like your user icon. :)

[mylastgoodbyes]

oh, thank you. :)

[projecteko]

here the driving age is 18.

i still think that it's too young. people that age are still way too irresponsible and immature to be driving. 21 is a much more suitable age in my opinion. i can't imagine the kind of drivers you have over there, at 16 years of age. it's absurd.

[idiotguy]

but kids like that dont suddenly start acting ok when they turn 18 or 21

i think it's safe to say that this kid should just... well... die

[mylastgoodbyes]

agreed.

and if he keeps driving the way he does it probably won't take long.

(not that I would EVER wish a fatal car wreck on anyone)

[idiotguy]

umm neither do i....

err

[laughinggirl]

its funny.
when i took the Basic Driver Improvement class with my dad as the teacher, he took a survey.
he had the whole class rate their own driving skills. 1 being a horrible driver and 10 being an excellent driver. and 98% of the class voted themselves 8 and up.
Now isn't that something?! A whole classroom of people (ranging from the age of 16-their 50's and 60s) who are all there due to driving mishaps of their fault, and they all think they're decent drivers? what's wrong with us?!

everyone thinks they are a good driver.

[mylastgoodbyes]

hah! that's interesting!

I don't think I'm a good driver.

[hoping4despair]

haha.
I'm doing the waiver thing Thursday actually.
but I will not be allowed to drive alone until I can prove to my dad the car is safe [noticed how I didn't say "I". heh]. Anyway, I think thats reasonable enough to ensure the safety of other drivers. He's been to driving school twice...and is anal to me about knowing if I know how to drive. =\

Re: I don't think I'm a good driver.

[mylastgoodbyes]

holla for waivers because I doubt I would have been able to pass a road test when I was 16.

well, i'm sure the kid knows how to drive.
it's just a matter of being responsible, which is not limited to young drivers.

Re: I don't think I'm a good driver.

[hoping4despair]

true.
my dad doesnt think i'm responsible becuase I don't clean out the litter box sometimes.
=\

[enderismyhero]

I took the road test, passed with flying colors, and still got in a wreck that was my fault.

Go me.

i should know better

i, erin elyse jeffreys, have done MANY stupid things while operating a motor vehicle....
-totalled my integra 2 months after i bought it
-had multiple high dollar speeding tickets - which i can't get anymore of
-hit and run on a crazy redneck's trash can
-went on a rage in rocky bayou hitting recycling bins with truck
-off roading in a 2 wheel drive truck and getting stuck, paying 70 dollars at 11pm to get pulled out by hangin with mr. cooper
-more speeding tickets

i think ive learned though... i havent done anything stupid with my new car...that would be dumb...i dont really speed anymore either - i cant afford to though. but yeah everyone just has to learn...the hard way...sometimes that means death (sorry i had to be dramatic) but i mean dude, it could happen. it sucks...cars are deadly weapons. gotta have consciousness and know how to use it

Re: i should know better

[mylastgoodbyes]

ohh yeah, and I totally agree, I've done stupid immature things behind the wheel to. At 16 I was no where near responsible enough to drive on my own, but, like you, luckily, I have matured in that respect.
