The sickening prospect of beginning driving lessons

[Pat Vegas]

again is imminent.

:-(

[Curly]

You are what age? 25? and still not driving.
Poor show

and I will try to help you rationalise it (because one day you will look back on it as an irrational fear)

[Monty91]

without the added social stigma attached to it.

£90 of that came from adding a named driver on as well...

[Curly]

Personally I don't see why a Londoner MUST drive.Just us poor schmucks that live in backward places :-(

[Curly]

Now,getting on a plane is a completely different matter.Horses for courses s'pose

[Lar d'Arse]

when adding others reduces your premium....!

*You pick things up quicker when you're younger
*Your peers were normally doing it at the same time and so you didn't feel so alone
*More social stigma attached to learning when you're older
*Years spent as a passenger not having to think about the mechanics of a car or how it actually works, then suddenly you're behind the wheel and it can be daunting, like having to use any complex piece of technology but this time one that could kill you.

and my left leg just bounces up and down uncontrollably, makes changing gear amusing!

[Pat Vegas]

though that was 10 years ago now.

[Lar d'Arse]

[PSRB]

jacked it in after that. Thing is he wasn't actually a bad driver, he just got ridiculously nervous about it all

Empty arse roads.

Actually I was very confident going in I had 4 minor errors and when the examiner put the breaks for a bull**** reason I thought it was out of my hands and I couldn't be doing with it anymore.

but now I have to get it done. But the thought of booking the lessons again, the long wait for the test, all the bull**** again.

Whilst simultaneously spending loads of money on this.

[Pat Vegas]

I had a stupidly excellent credit rating in those days.
It would have ended up in big tears.

[Snin]

[Pat Vegas]

swing of it imo.

[Monty91]

[Snin]

no time, our little test office was good tho as loads of gaps,...but they ended up shutting henley on so kids now have to use reading

[Rich]

than later.

Still, I hear that if you're good with your money for five years or something your credit rating will have reset itself*

* - I wasn't really paying much attention when I watched a programme on it so that might be completely incorrect.

Switching, I did it with and without her and it came down £90 with her added.

I didnt drive until my mid 20s, I had a motorbike as I grew up somewhere car ownership wasnt feasible unless your dad was a south african arms dealer who beat his manservants.

[Nicosia Gooner]

[Pat Vegas]

Growing up in the middle of London isn't that helpful.

I never had some quiet roads I could jump in my dad's car and have a drive about in.

[Rich]

present but I didn't actually drive it until the day I passed my test.

Went to pick up the guys from Sixth Form and decided to go on a road trip. Of all the places we could have ended up, we ended up in Portsmouth :-(

[eastgermanautos]

tokyo drift, that is.

Agreeing with Monty.
