Can you drive? (1 Viewer)

[JimmyBacon]

I don't drive because I am 'shit' at it and the concentration thing and also. The instructor told me 'never' to get my license ever.
So yeah easier on my mind now not driving ever again.

Ohhh so rude

 

[kodoku]

nah scared of it

 

[JimmyBacon]

nah scared of it

Ahhh I can understand

 

[Belgizen]

I can't. Now, I need to follow 12 hours of theory and then I can try every day until I get it

Ahh why is it so hard?

 

[dark_tranquility]

Ohhh so rude

Yeah he was but he had a point. I just wasn't 'with it' the whole time I was driving and my concentration was poor at best.
So yeah a perfectly valid reasoning by him imo.

cuz apparently they think that the majority of traffic violations happen by younger people (when it's older people)
but we all know it's for the money.
They even have a course that you need to pay a shit ton of money for if you have your license 6 months where they make you crash and such.
They made it so hard that they needed to make things easier cuz literally 80% failed
Even now it's still so hard that 60% of younger people don't even want to try and get their license and then people are "shocked"
My parents tried to make some of those tests and they only get like 25/50 (without time cuz they need to think a lot) and you need 41/50

Ohhh really

Yes. I only know of someone else who is older than me on this forum and it's only for a single month. I turned 56 last month.

No, and I don't think I should; I literally can't see straight. When I took driver's ed in high school, I almost drove off an overpass during road training - I thought I was going straight down the road.

When I took driver's ed in high school

I didn't know that's part of any high school curriculum. When I was to learn driving; I had to hire a teacher.

 

[mysteric]

Haha legally?

I mean, technically anyone can drive, just not safely

It was an elective in my school district in the early 1980s; there's a link to it on my high school's website, but it seems to have been cancelled due to Covid.

Could a driver's license be obtained during the course or as a result?
