Wa-hey! Congrats. Any plans to acquire a motor?

There's a mark on my granite benchtop where a wet dish was left. It won't come out.

Well yeah, in technical terms its the "G" license I got. I started with my "G1" on my 16th birthday, just a written test and had to have a parent in the car with me when driving. 8 months later I got the "G2" which is really no different from a G aside from needing a 0% BAC and some restrictions on night time driving with passengers under 19, and once it expires it can't be renewed, so you better go get your G before your G2 expires. 1 year from my G2 to the day, I got my G.

So i'm not really in the graduated license scheme anymore, i'm a fully licensed driver with no restrictions other than zero alcohol tolerance until age 21.
Sure, if i'm ever near enough to




Maybe for college, I want to go to a college close to where we live now so I can just live at home and drive back and forth

Congrats Gozit

For those in your age group 18 - 21, how difficult will it be do you think to always have eyes on the road, both hands on the steering wheel at all times & absolutely no texting or data usage while driving?

I don't think Gozit is a complete idiot.

Phones aren't the only distraction in cars. The other passengers are especially if they talk to you and expect a conversation. You often see animated chats between drivers and passengers. Bloody daft.

Yes....some level to go before catching up with , and yet.

I drove my boyfriends truck home yesterday evening - never driven a truck before (it was Toyota...I dunno the modal but it was big and heavy).

Despite him feeling pretty safe with me driving the rental car in NS (a Kia Rio), he told me me that he felt that his life was in danger a couple of times in the truck - rather over dramatic in my opinion!

Needless to say I hated driving it, couldn't parallel park it (I rarely can parallel park anything though),and felt I was taking up most of the road.

Back to small compact cars for me

So, not the Marge Simpson getting carried away with the power experience then.

I wish you had the video of this.

To be fair that is a pretty good example of me driving in the UK behind a much slower person not even at the maximum speed limit.

I believe it's season 10 episode 15 (I looked it up...I'm a fan but I don't know individual episodes ) but I couldn't find (just) the clip of the part I wanted last time.

This is my favourite clip from The Simpsons. When this episode came out I didnt get it as they were not operating in the UK at the time but since being in Vancouver I do.

I'm so glad this was just before I planned on coffee and not just after.
