    Default About time I got my drivers license

    I havent really bothered with getting my drivers license, but my dad has finally convinced me to actually go out and take the test.

    Hes promised to lease a brand new car in his name if I pass the test within the 3 tries they give you.

    Cant pass up that offer, would love to whip a brand new charger or some shit around haha


    So does anyone here have their license? is it hard to remember all that stuff, i kinda know some of the stuff like dont turn on red and stuff

    but overall is it a ton of stuff you have to remember, or is it pretty simple?

    The tests will probably vary depending on the state.

    I read the book once the night before the test...passed it no problems.

    However, that was a long *** time ago.

    Overall they dont care about how good you drive, they care about how carefully and safe you drive. Always check your mirrors, Always use blinkers when turning, even in a parking lot. NEVER go over the speed limit. Other than that its a cakewalk.

    The multiple question part to get your permit is really easy. It's usually the most obvious answer or the largest fine. As for the road test, I took it with my driving school so it was incredibly easy. Left turn onto a vacant street, two right turns, k-turn, backing up, hand signals.

    LOL I failed 2 times before getting it.

    There's silly questions like, a school bus stopping at an intersection. It threw me off because y'know, school buses don't make stops at an intersection.

    And apparently you shouldn't go the legal speed limit on a highway orr whatever it was, you should go the same speed as those around you.

    Test? What is that?
    There's no such thing in my country.
    It's called "bribe".

    In canada we have to do a written test then wait a year then do a road test to get our licence and i got it on my first try. On the other hand my friend wasted a grand and 4 tries to pass...I am wishign now that i never got a car tho, i pretty much wasted almost 2 grand in just stupid parking tickets and 1 speeding and one red light...

    I might be getting my permit soon. I'm almost 16. My dad might trade in his Ford Ranger to get a small auto for me to drive.

    Pretty simple, not very hard because it's all common sense with a few exceptions.

    I took driver's ed. in school so never had to take the actual driving test. So I guess I passed on the first try? :P

    I'm 24 and yet have my license and really don't plan on getting it anytime soon. I can't really afford a car and insurance at this time. I find it funny the people that run out and get their license and a car. Suddenly they start *****ing they have no money anymore taking care of it

    I never bothered either. I'm a fine driver...but I'd hate to fail the test. I'd feel like a piece of shit lol.
