What's the first thing you did when you got your driver's license. |
|
I went to the gas station, got a pack of camels and a pack of newports for my friends, found them so that I'd have someone to watch over the car, and then drove a few miles into the city to grab few 40 oz. bottles of malt liquor. After this, I returned home and we had a bit of a celebration.

2. That wasn't cool of you to be using him for transportation like that. |

19. If an accountant were to stop stealing his client's money after the account ran out... |
|
I'd be tempted to say that the theft stopped because there was nothing left to steal rather than because the accountant realized it was not cool.
I'm wondering whether he conveyed any feelings of betrayal when this happened.

Actually a small Datsun pickup. I worked at a carwash from the time I was 15 and saved the money to buy it and pay for the insurance.
I was never afraid of sand in a car.
I got my drivers license on my birthday when I turned 16.
I still remember the thrill of driving alone. I had gypsy feet.

12. I didn't have my own car at the time, so it was kind of a moot point. |

14. My grandmother quit driving and moved in due to poor health right before I got my permit. |
|
Edited on Sat Jun-14-08 02:18 PM by JVS
So she brought a third car into the household. In fact, my job was to babysit her, which I could leave a friend to do when I needed to run an errand.
But come on, what did you do when you first got ahold of the car?

I used the car to get to work and do stuff with my girlfriend.
It was rather difficult to impress her with my parents' little Honda when she had her own Mustang though. :P

I had already been driving trucks for two years on a farm permit when I got my license at sixteen. And it was middle of harvest. Oh yeah, two weeks after my 16th birthday, I witnessed a fatal accident.

23. I drove to the A&W Drive-In. I pulled into a parking slot, leaned |
|
back and rested my arms confidently on the seat back. The waitress came out to the car and told me that I had left my headlights on. That'll take the wind outta yer sails! :)

didn't take going downhill into consideration while going downhill, it sorta caught up to me. made a mental note to myself that constant acceleration wasn't the best approach
