So, yesterday I took my little sister to take her Learner's Permit test. She passed it and did pretty good today when I let her drive to the store (it's like a minute or two away from the house when driving. =3=; ).
It got me thinking about my first time behind the wheel. I drove straight into one of the pine trees along my great grandma's driveway. Granted, I was probably three or four years old, but still. xD I refused to get in the driver's seat again until I was 15 and I was in the Drivers Ed. car. It wasn't as bad as I had remembered it, but the very last day of driving I had a tire blowout. =^=;;

So, let's discuss your first driving experience! :3

My first driving experiance? Oh wow. I was about 12-13 years old maybe 14 (i don't remember) and a friend of the family took mom and I along with him on a job. He was a truck driver back then and he hauld a lot of stuff.

Well we went and picked up his tank load of 'oxygen' and on the way back he told me to steer the truck. ... I was controlling a semi! well almost.. I wasn't touching pedals or anything but still..

the next time I went driving i was 16 and that family friend took me on side roads. I did well. but no matter how well I did he refused to teach me the final thing i needed.. maneuverability. so I gave up.

My first driving experience I as 17, I won't let my mom teach me since she freaks out and then I get freaked out, so my step dad took me out to every learner worst nightmare, on a busy road/county road, in the middle of Winter so icy roads are there, and out of all things me driving an avalanche (which is considered a truck).

I almost hit a water truck since I drove too wide but out of that he said I did pretty well.

Then I drove my sister's jeep which I hate so much because it's a clutch/ standard transmission so I kept stalling the jeep then my sister would bitch at me for it.

I didn't get to drive a car until I was in Driver's Ed at 17.

I was the one gripping the steering wheel really tight and all. The teacher could tell I was not relaxed. But I got my liscense through that class (and it was the last year you could do it that way thank good)

But if you count golf carts and go karts and all that...I had fuuuuuuuun with those.

I'm more paranoid about cars....less barriers between you and people. You could easily kill someone. And I'd love to quit driving if I could, but I can't.

My first is when I drove the van a couple feet forward in the drive way. I didn't anticipate the sensitivity of it. I got those couple feet all in one sudden move xD

I was also not relaxed my first time driving during my classes. Later thoguh I got comfortable, though is didn't show because of how I was gripping the wheel. It has those notches in it for a REASON right? I was trying to keep my fingers in them at all times. xD

I was in the free driver's ed class in high school, at 16 which was earlier than I wanted to drive but having 4 younger siblings meant my parents NEEDED me to drive so everyone could be driven around as needed. Anyways, on the first driving session with my instructor, it was POURING rain. As in, the "keep your windshield wipers on max and even then you can't see well" rain. Needless to say I learned more than I ever thought I would in that one driving lesson o.o

My first time behind the wheel was when I was 10. I went out to my great grandparents farm down in mid texas and I got to drive my ggf's Truck. all things considered, I did pretty well... My step dad fell out of the truck the first time I used the gas, but when you're standing in the back of a pick-up and someone floors it...

[Cheesecake]

Oh, Lord. I was 11 and I could reach the pedals and I ran into the ditch and murdered the trash cans. Never got behind the wheel until a few years later.

Then one Sunday morning, I was playing with the wheel and the little level you move to change gears. I put the car in drive and nearly rammed our house.

My two more recent attempts were smooth compared to my early attempts. xD The first time was a lot easier to me since it was a van. I messed up completely when trying to back out of the driveway. The van made a circle and nearly backed into a ditch full of tree branches.

The second attempt was in a truck and I did well. But, when I tried to get into the correct lane, I didn't know to let the wheel go so I could straighten up and I almost demolished this little car and drifted into the ditch of a salon.

My first driving experience was after I got my permit, and we were on our way home, well we stopped by the mailboxes and my mom told me to drive. Well i hit the gas really hard and everyone (My cousins were in the car too) screamed. It was quite funny. xDD

[Lioshika]

I never had any problem first time I drove. Mom took me to get my permit the day I turned 16 literally. We went to a State park and used the lot to practice. I did Drivers' Ed. as well, I was labeled "back up queen". -__- Nobody seemed to be able to back into a parking space.
