techno 3,496 Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 I was 15 in a car park at asda with my dad, I remember trying to catch the car on the clutch without knowing that your kind of supposed to stop first. Its a good job I had a fair few runs as a friend let me have a go in his car in a fish shop car park at 17 and I ran over a girl we were with, it was totally her fault but my mate was glad I could drive, this was my first emergency stop, I didn't even stall the car. Good luck with your driving! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diddums 4,336 Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 Don't stop driving until you get to London. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deterioration 443 Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 I was 8 in a go kart my uncle built. It was fast as fuck; it scared me shitless. Him and my grandfather laughed at me when I turned it off and got out like they knew it was too fast and they wanted to see me scared. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Playertd 177 Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 "First" time was 12 years old on old farm roads...going 5 mph. My real first driving however was at 15 when I got my permit, learning in a mall parking lot then drove home on the freeway going 45-50 on a 65 road, pissing EVERYONE off! It's fun but a lot better if you have a parent/someone to help you learn for your first few drives, good luck have fun man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just Cal 461 Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 I nearly killed a dog my first time driving. He was off his leash and the aul bitch of an owner went mad at me. I told her firmly where to go and haven't been back in a car since. I might be scared..... Dylan! Let the instructor speak! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uberwarrior 373 Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 I think Euan should teach Dylan to drive! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chookes 965 Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 I'm a good driver! I think Tam should teach him on the way down to London on Friday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diddums 4,336 Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 Nah, on the way home. We do want to meet these fuckers before Dylan kills 'em all. Dattebayo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Docwagon 856 Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 Probably about 8. I'd sit on my granddad's lap while he worked the pedals. Sometimes he was rather intoxicated. They'd crucify someone for that today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stretch616 697 Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 16 in a Tesco car park. There wasn't much of a clutch left after I was done! It's scary to learn but opens up so many doors in life once you get it. I'm currently working on getting my mrs to learn (no joy yet) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tronic44 3,642 Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 I've always found driving easy, my first proper time out was exactly like my last one lol tbh i don't understand how people find it so hard to drive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jordie1892 674 Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 Are you getting a lesson or is a parent taking you? All I can say is I underestimated the clutch big time! Good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deterioration 443 Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 He's not back. Must not have remembered curbs aren't for hoppin' like coochies are for poppin'; unless he hit livestock trying to cross the road. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dattebayo 446 Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 When I was 13 or 14. Me, my dad, and my uncles (all 6 of them, plus their sons) were out on an annual off-roading trip through the Sonoran desert to reach this emotionally-significant hotel on the beach in the Gulf of Mexico (the same hotel that nabbed me a paralyzing fear of the ocean long ago). Dont ask me the reason WHY its emotionally-significant, they never tell the young'uns. xD Well, on the return trip home, my dad let me drive on this long strech of flat land. He was drunk, however, and kept yelling "STAY ON THE ROAD CABRON SPEED UP". He reached over and tried to show me correct hands-on-the-wheel placement while going 80mph in a Blazer truck and we veered of the road towards a miniture dune that, at this speed, sent us flying through the air. Like seriously, 5 seconds of hang time. We landed violently and broke the muffler, but were unharmed. We just sat there quietly until I started up the car and got back on the road. Good memories. I've never driven since. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crippled_viper 258 Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 I was 12 years old on an old dirt road. My dad put the truck in 1st gear and all I had to do was maintain the gas pedal. I did hit a huge pot hole in the road and the truck and us were bouncing all over the place. Mind you I could not stop because my reaction was poor for driving. Plus you had to push in the clutch and I didn't know that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

techno 3,496 Posted October 1, 2013 Share Posted October 1, 2013 I can still remember what it was like way back when I passed my test and got that freedom, its a skill for life. From my perspective seems odd how young some of the kids look behind the wheel these days but good luck man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stretch616 697 Posted October 1, 2013 Share Posted October 1, 2013 Totally agree with Gary. It's expensive but one of the most usefuls skills you'll get. Glad it went well bud. What car are you learning in? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
