When I was in New Jersey... rebelaessedai Send a noteboard - 13/12/2011 11:30:59 PM
I remember thinking, almost every single time I was stuck behind a NY driver, that you'd think they'd be able to drive better considering the clusterfuck that is the NYC road system.
The good news is, if you can drive in NY/NJ, you can drive anywhere. :P Good luck for the next time you take it!

I would love to drive on empty country roads. Vivien - 13/12/2011 10:08:35 PM 846 Views
I had to take the driving test 3 time before I passed (posted at the wrong place ) Linda - 13/12/2011 11:43:44 PM 922 Views

Seriously? Why? At 13 you should have had some awareness of the danger you were posing to others Vivien - 13/12/2011 10:27:59 PM 957 Views

Probably just a difference in perspective. Kids sneaking a vehicle for a jor ride is pretty common. everynametaken - 15/12/2011 03:51:30 AM 946 Views

It must be harder to overcome that natural fear in NYC. Sareitha Sedai - 13/12/2011 06:44:28 PM 892 Views
Yeah, absolutely. Vivien - 13/12/2011 10:32:25 PM 1038 Views

Isn't it traditional to fail your first test? Or is that just around here? Legolas - 13/12/2011 08:14:01 PM 914 Views
I wouldn't think so Dark Knight - 13/12/2011 08:25:36 PM 806 Views

Maybe they're the ones who couldn't hack driving in NYC? *NM* Vivien - 14/12/2011 12:21:09 AM 503 Views
I wonder how many people that have been driving for years and years would fail if they had to take Tashmere - 14/12/2011 12:03:55 AM 875 Views
Oh I think most people with years' worth of driving experience be fine. Vivien - 14/12/2011 12:27:09 AM 1071 Views
I was even rather nervous about taking lessons and failed my first ironclad - 14/12/2011 08:30:25 AM 1020 Views

I don't think so. Vivien - 15/12/2011 05:22:09 AM 955 Views

I take exception to this. Stephen - 14/12/2011 06:29:40 PM 878 Views

Also, you can tell when there's someone around the corner, because of the headlights. Tim - 19/12/2011 04:18:26 PM 909 Views
Oooh, that's a good point. Vivien - 19/12/2011 05:17:16 PM 1024 Views
It's more pronounced and important in the countryside where there are no streetlights. Tim - 19/12/2011 05:51:25 PM 1025 Views
In the country there are deer aerocontrols - 20/12/2011 05:53:17 AM 917 Views

I found driving nervewracking until I got to do it by myself. NZ has a great system, IMO. Rebekah - 15/12/2011 01:48:19 PM 782 Views

Amusing (to me) comparison to sex risks. Vivien - 17/12/2011 05:50:16 PM 917 Views
That last part: just a joke. Vivien - 17/12/2011 06:06:43 PM 973 Views

No. But it is true that my risk aversion coefficient is too high. Vivien - 17/12/2011 06:49:33 PM 769 Views
