My step father was a long distance truck driver, he won an award for driving 2 million miles never having a single accident.
Have you ever had an accident?
was it your fault or the other drivers?
have you ever had a parking ticket
or driven without a license.
answer these questions fully will give you best response.

I've passed tests which are based on computers and I can drive racing cars on private circuits.
They all say I'm good but I don't drive.
I do enjoy driving though, but I've never been on the open road. I've only driven dodgems and other sorts of smaller driving cars, isn't the same thing ;)

I feel for the most part I am a good driver. I have received a couple of speeding tickets and went to drivers school to get the last one taken off my record. I've been in three car accidents, but none were my fault. The first one I ever had totaled my car and gave me two black eyes. The women just turned right in front of me and there was nothing I could do. My car insurance company raised my rate, even though I had a police report proving it wasn't my fault. I changed Insurance companies and got it back down to where it was and bought my mom's car. My second accident, my neighbor didn't look behind him and as I was backing out he bashed right into my driver side door! He didn't want to handle through insurance companies, but I insisted. I had to get a whole new door. My third accident was when a guy in one of those big, huge,raised up trucks was ahead of me in the McDonald's drive up and decided he didn't want McDonald's after all and he backed right in to me! I did have one accident which was my fault, I couldn't stop quite soon enough and hit the car in front of me. His car was fine, I had to get a whole new headlight for my car.

that is great that he drove all of that time without having an accident. I have only had one accident since I have been driving. I hit a deer that was crossing the road in front of me. It was late at night and I seen it dart out in front of me. I tried to slow down and moved to another lane but it kept coming. I have never had a parking ticket either. I have driven without a license a couple of times because mom let my permit expire and she wouldn't let me get my drivers license.

I'm not at all a driver but however I'm learning from the driver we currently have! It is really exciting to get control of a car.I think it is important too to know driving,it comes really handy in times of emergency.And when I buy my own car I would definitely want to drive it myself and not let it into the hands of someone else.I think I'll love to go on long drives when I learn to drive well!

wow. your dad's great!
as for me,i am a bad driver. hehe. i went to a driving school for 3 months. i passed the exams and i got myself a license but still, i don't have much confidence to drive. i always get nervous when i am in the steering wheel. so, for safety purposes, i'd rather be on the passenger's seat. hehe.

I have recently learnt driving from my husband and he feels that i am now quite good at it but would become perfect as i practice it. It is not easy for me yet to use reverse gear and he is training me on this front. I love to drive with him by my side. He made me a driving licence which is still a learner one and would soon get a proper one. I have been a careful driver and have not met with any accident by gods grace. I think the fear of one has kept me from driving at high speed.

I can safely say I have never had an accident while driving im a pretty good driver im always carefull I always go the speed limit or try to most of the times sometimes I go a bit over Im always curdious let people go and I always use my blinkers when I turn which I find very annoying when people dont use there blinker because sometimes you dont know what way there going to go most of the time and that could lead to a big accident.

I dont drive yet. Though my sister let me have a go in her car. I managed to pull off okay but as we were moving i paniced and pressed harder on the accelerator. Was not a good thing to do. Though i did manage to break and we survived to tell the story :P
