D4 My Driving Life

It all started when I turned sixteen years old and received my permit.  I ended up getting two questions wrong on the permit test, but I felt good about it.  I was exciting to start to practice driving.  Before I took my road test, I really hadn't driven all that much and I was very nervous.  I was scheduled to go East Aurora for my test.  When I got there I had a really old woman for my instructor and she kinda smelled.  I ended up failing that test because I let my nerves get the best of me.  My next road test was scheduled on Halloween in Batavia.  I had a really attractive lady that time and I was very confident.  I passed with ease and she kept smiling and winking at me like I was a champ.  I was.  My first time driving alone was very weird, but it was awesome.  I used to think driving was really cool because I could drive anywhere I wanted to and nothing would stop me.  The freedom of driving felt great.  I have never had an accident or have gotten a ticket(knock on wood).  I feel that I am a very good driver and anyone who rides with me should feel safe.  I drive an '03 Chevy Monte Carlo.  I love this car, it is comfortable and easy to drive.  At first, I used to wash my car almost every week, but now I have stooped to about every three weeks or so.  My car is black so almost every bit of dirt shows up and its really aggravating when you drive down your road for the first time after you wash it and there's dust all over it.  I try to keep the inside of my car really clean, but it's hard when you have to pick up and take home a bunch of people and they always leave behind dirt or mud.  Driving now is kind of a hassle.  I am beginning to realize that people do not like to follow the rules of the road.  It sucks because I have to be extremely cautious.  Driving a car is a great mode of transportation and it gives you a lot of freedom.

  1. "At first, I used to wash my car almost every week, but now I have stooped to about every three weeks or so." I think you mean 'stopped.' After I started driving I have very similar feelings. I was so happy to have some sort of freedom!
