Kev R at work need beer	You never stop learning - I first drove a car unassisted in a private car park when I was 11. Passed test first time at age 17 and 2 days. Have pass plus and advanced driving awards and also a full motorcycle licence - I learn every day that other road users are f*&^^%ing idiots with no respect for other drivers - cutting you up, tailgating, doing 70 on 50 roads and 50 on 30 roads, wheelspins, handbrake turns, overloading the little saxo or corsa with 12 of their hoody mates and generally not giving a toss about anyone else. Of course this is because their pea brains cannot cope with looking, listening, breathing and talking at the same time (multitasking to them) let alone driving and being aware of the ever changing situation around them - we should raise the age of driving to 21 and make new drivers repeat the test every year for the first 5 years - in this time the first points on their license should result in a 12 month ban - no excuses - drive within the law or not at all. Sorry got carried away there. TTFN Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

syllylou77	Never actually. I had just watched others & when needed the car for an emergency I took off. I was 28 before I got my license. I didn't have a car of my own & no one to take me for a driver's test so I never bothered. Hubby showed me the particulars you can't just learn from watching & took me for the test. I wouldn't have passed it because I never could paralell part back then. But the tester was female & overheard hubby teasing me about no woman passes her first time. I saw the tester change the score from 68 to 69, smile & tell my hubby I had passed. One of the few times I was grateful for his macho teasing jags he gets on. lol! Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Scouse	Passed my test when I was 31 still learning I note that there is a lot of news about teenage drivers 17/18 say who drive badly and cause accidents. It is easy to point the finger (I talk about UK only ) but I ask how did you drive for the first 12 months after you passed your test in your late 20 early 30's. At a guess I would suggest that due to over confidence you were an accident looking for somewhere to happen and other motorists pulled you out of the DO DA Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No
