    Pink Grin Vroooom Vrooooooooooooom!

    Do you drive? If so, did you pass your driving test first time? If not, why not? Do you have a car? Tell us about it! If you don't have a car, what is your dream car? What is your driving pet peeve? TALK ABOUT CARS AND DRIVING.

    I drive, but only with my parents or brother in the car because I don't hold a full license yet. It's my second driving test on Monday. I failed the first time because I was super nervous and made silly mistakes. I decided today to take my driving test in my own car, if my insurance company will let me. I really really really hope I pass this time!



    HELLO KENNY. Kenny is my Ford KA. I got him for my 18th birthday and I love him lots! He is only little, and can only fit 4 people. The boot space is tiny.

    The thing that annoys me the most when driving is when people don't indicate and also when it is my right of way and people keep coming anyway. Arghhhhh.

    kgo.

    *yawn*

    I drive! A black honda civic coupe 07. I failed the first time because I was also really nervous and also thanks to a flag man who just had to pop by on that day. :kaoangry:
    I almost cried after I failed too! The guy was such a meanie.
    Hm ... my pet peeve is people who drive really really slow in the fast lane and people who cut me off.

    My first car was an old Datsun 710 station wagon that looked something like this:

    I drive a little over 80 miles a day to and from school so I had to get my license. I passed it the first time though. My car is a blazer and it gets 17 mpg o.o which is really bad when you drive as much as I do.

    BUT Monday my parents got me a NEW car. Well not new new but meh. I got a 2001 VW beatlle It gets 30 mpg and that makes me excited. One problem. It's a standard and i don't know how to drive stick D: I has to learn.

    It's a spring green

    Is silver 2003 chevrolet cavalier two-door. Is wonderful and drives perfect for me. That's how I picked it. My dad took me to see various used chevies and pontiacs and I saw this car that was like a MIRROR with its window tint and I got in it and it smelled so nice and I drove it, and it just felt perfect. I love it.

    (I've driven it over a few curbs since getting it, so it's started to make some weird wiggles and sounds, but it's a wonderful car, gets nice gaseousness, and fits just enough people)

    --

    My driving pet peeve is people that come up behind me when I have the cruise control on and they pass me just when I'm going to run into the back of a semi or something. I really hate that, but I'm starting to get where I can tell if a car is going to do that to me, so I get inthe passing lane before they can make it come to a crisis point.

    i drive a '96 town & country minivan~ it's red. i haven't named it yet and i've been driving it for a year!

    my very first learning car was a Lincoln continental and then my parents bought me (and themselves!) a 2001 pontiac grand am. And my mom crashed it. So I got to take over the minivan after they sold the lincoln.

    I've had my license since I was 16-17 and i took driver's ed when I was 15.

    my biggest driving pet peeve is slow old people who don't use their turn signals.

    You can do it!

    I have my full license. I've had it for 7 months. It took me 3 tries to get my license, because I get bad nerves. But I'm a good driver, because I'm one of the only people I know who has NEVER (knock on wood) gotten into an accident or got a ticket. And most of those people got their license on their FIRST time, so that says something about the system.

    I have a 2002 Alero. It's sexy.

    Do you drive?
    Yes, though only sparingly (once every two weeks or so).

    If so, did you pass your driving test first time?
    Yes.

    The woman that gave the test wore a large, black arctic coat in the middle OF smurfING SUMMER IN A CAR WITH NO AC.

    She left a large sweat spot on my passenger seat, which I washed about thirty times over once I got home.

    Do you have a car?
    No, but my girlfriend does.

    If you don't have a car, what is your dream car?
    What I really want is a motorcycle, but if forced to chose a car, I would take the Ferrari 360 Spider or perhaps the Lotus Elise.

    What is your driving pet peeve?
    That people are oblivious idiots.

    I'm getting my licence next week. I was going to get it ages ago, but we couldn't afford it. But I am DEFINITELY getting it before I turn sixteen.

    I have a silver Mazda MX6, which I share with my brother.

    I drive an '01 Mitsubishi Diamante VR-X and I love it. It burns through fuel though which sucks.

    Yes.
    No.
    Some bureaucratic bull wherein you're supposed to stop at stop signs.
    I drive a 2001 Honda Odyssey. Gold. The automatic sliding back doors have stopped working, so its capacity has pretty much gone down from 7 to 2. I love it.
    I dislike drivers from Florida. They don't know how to drive in the Northeast.
