Passed the first time. My first car was a '93 Infiniti G20. I now have an '02 Chevy Silverado 1500 4.3L. I like it even though I'm paying up to my nose in gas. I don't really care enough about cars to have a dream one, just something to fit my needs during a certain time in my life. I don't like slow drivers and people who don't use their turn signals.
I don't drive for a few reasons. For one thing, there's no need for me to drive anywhere since public transport in London is great, and at university more or less everywhere I need to be is within walking distance. As well as that, driving's really expensive, particularly when you're a teenaged male and you've got to pay a massive insurance bill.
But mostly, it's because I suck.

Sometimes I wonder what my life would be like if I were as great as Paulo Wanchope.
I passed my learner's, restricted and full licence tests the first time.
If you just obey the law and keep your wits about you, it's fine.
My first car is my current car, and it's a 1976 Triumph 2500 mark 2. Fine old machine, that. Immaculate condition, too, and reliable as all hot damn.
I drive as little as possible, because I've got a decent bike, fuel's expensive, and my city's bus system is godly.
I don't have a licence, even though I'm 19 and you're allowed to get one when you turn 18 in Denmark. To be honest driving around in a car has just never really spoken to me. Sure, it's convenient and stuff, but as I see it it's also somewhat of an unnecessary luxury as long as there's public transport.. at least for someone like me. A lot of my friends can't understand why I haven't got it yet, and often ask me why and think it's quite ridiculous.
Who knows? - maybe I'll get my licence some day, but not for at least a couple of years.
I don't drive. Personally I'd like to, but I just can't get the confidence to try my luck at taking lessons. Besides, I'm only 18 and although I work, I really don't want to pour all my hard earned cash into a car. As for what type I'd buy, I actually don't know. I'm not too bothered about how flashy someones car is.

I don't drive because I don't own a car and I'm not fully insured
...Geddit?
I don't drive because it's too expensive and the public transport system in Edinburgh is second in the UK only to that in London. And the UK's public transport is right up there.
I'll learn before returning to NZ, because NZ's public transport is not right up there.

I don't currently drive much mainly walk.
The first vehicle I owned was a 1989 Chevy Blazer. It was the shizzle.
How often do the buses come in Christchurch's suburbs? I'd be very impressed if they came as often as they do in Edinburgh (eight times per hour right outside my door). I think I got about 2-4 buses per hour in Auckland, which is pretty poor because if you miss one, you're screwed.Fixed

Curse all you Europeans with your public transportation and your high population densities
I prefer living low-density. Public transport is great and all, but it's even nicer to have your own back yard and to not be living three floors up, let alone having a fenced off area in which everything inside is your own private property.
Also, public transport can work in a low density area, too, if your council and residents want to shell out for it.

Do you drive?
Yes
If so, did you pass your driving test first time?
Yes
Do you have a car? Tell us about it!
It's a 2006 Ford Focus. A 3-door model in black. Tis' quite the sexy bit of gear, but saying that if I owned a banger i'd still call it sexy because it would be mine.
If you don't have a car, what is your dream car?
I have a car, but still, my dream car within reason is the BMW M6 Convertable. Yes I will dream.
What is your driving pet peeve?
Mostly just people who take advantage of the road, and that can go for everything.
