I'm 18 now, and many would think I have a car or at least I know how to drive, but unfortunately that isnt true. I never had the opportunity to get behind a wheel and practice up until about 2 weeks ago. While in the empty parking lot with no one but my friend it did seemed like it would be a piece of cake but it was pretty tough. Just getting the hands of the physics or motions takes some time and Im still not able to say I got it down pat. My little session lasted for about a half hour of just doing basic driving such as turning, parallel parking and u-turns.
I plan on getting my license in about a month and hopefully I will get my own car by the end of summer after working A LOT to get something decent that wont break down on me on my way to school. Driving gives a person a lot of freedom, they are not limited to a place that they can walk to or a place that is reachable by mass transit. I can now visit places that aren't in my general locations. Another huge plus for me is that the time to get to school will be shortened by a lot. I would realistically be able to leave my house 20 minutes before class and make it on time with a couple minutes to spare. Hopefully I continue improving my driving skills and become one of those people that never get any tickets which would be a great plus.
