Most of my friends are getting their driver's liscenses or permits, but I haven't started on either. My mom wants me to pay for my own driver's insurance, and to do that I have to get a job. It would be difficult to go to school full time and also work, I probably won't, and therefore I won't drive. Horrible, isn't it? I hate relying on other people for transportation.

At what age is it legal for you to have a liscense where you live? do you have a liscense? if not, why not? and when will you get one?
No one here has been in an accident, right?

Wow, I just got my permit 3 days ago ad I spent 3 hours driving today.It was a lot of fun, BUT HARD WORK. Driving Is rather lame if you have to do it all the time. I hate that fact though that my mom or dad or someone as such is in the car. I don't know it's a blessing and a burden. Don't trip on it to much and ride a Bike Like I do (on mornings of 10 Degrees below zero) (lol, at least once or twice have I done that.) My gloves had holes in them and My fingers almost froze off... I had to let them warm up a little while before I could write.

I turned 15 on February 25th, and I'll FINALLY be getting my permit this week. I'm so excited- Once I'm 16, I'll be able to go wherever I want, whenever I want. Well, probably not, but it's nice to know that I could. In Florida you have to be 15+ to get your permit, and then have it one year to have your liscense.

Hey,
I'm 20 but I got my license when i was 19 (so late!), I live in the UK and you have to be 17 when you get your learner permit. Having the freedom that a driving license gives you is so worth it .....and it took me 3 times to pass my test( nerves!) but I love being able to get in my car and drive.But you can learn at any age so don't worry!

It would be so odd to drive on the left side of the road.
