I did not kill anyone. It was a success in my book. Idk I just wanted to post about it because I am proud of myself and I feel like a big boy. Discuss life as a big boy.

You people...

I had my license as son as I legally could and my class M endorsement at 18. I just can't imagine being so dependent on others and public transport... not that there's really any of the later in my area, lol.

>implying i drive with anyone else, anywhere

i live in a small enough community where i can just walk to places

i do need people to drive me to uni, though, which... while embarrassing, it's not really encumbering for anyone, because they always have places to go anyway

i need to learn at some point

i've been scared of it for four years, and it's only gonna get worse the more i wait

one day

In Australia, the licensing system is weird. You can get a Learner's Permit at age 16, and you need to get 120 hours of experience driving, and be at least 18 to get a Probationary license. The way it works in my state is this:
-Yellow plates with a black L must be displayed when a learner is driving.
-A fully licensed driver must be in the front passenger seat when an L plater is driving.
-A red plate with a white P must be displayed when a Probationary driver is operating the vehicle.
-P platers may not drive any vehicle with an engine larger than a V6, any form of forced induction, and an engine capacity (I think) over 4 Litres.

Where I'm going with that information is this: It took me less than a week of driving to be comfortable on my L plates. Once I got my P's, it was like everything I knew went out the window, and I was nervous without supervision, and I almost caused several accidents until I got comfortable again. Driving is strange like that.

I drove to high school my junior year at the age of 17. Drove my parent's truck with them at 16.
Having a vehicle is a luxury I don't want to lose.

Aren't you like, 19?

Bah. Don't let it be a bother Verb. I learned when I was 19.

Hell, most kids around here know how to drive a tractor when they're 8 or 9. Think of it this way.

When you reach a point in your life when you need a vehicle to help you out with travel or other stuff, you'll get it.
