Driving License

I just got my car driving license. it wasn’t too easy but not hard. I am aiming for Motorbike in one week. I have heard that in Europe getting license is quite hard.

why did u make a thread for this

driving tests are so overrated, there a piece of piss. you just got to watch out for the other idiot drivers who have had there license 20+ years and can’t drive for shit.

Also, come use your american driving skills in the uk, I’m up for some giggles :stuck_out_tongue:

Unless you travel large distances why even bother with vehicles. Get a bike.

In Portugal driving schools are private and cost you shitloads of money to get a license, but they teach you properly and you only get the license if you’re really a good driver.

Of course, most people disregard those lessons in the blink of an eye and become terrible drivers.

But hey, Spanish drivers are worse and let’s not even talk of the Italian…

lol i remember when ii was in portugal there was a roundabout outside the flat that people would just drive straight over all day. there was like a dirt track across it

Italian drivers are fucking horrible.

But yea, driving is easy, but no matter how good of a driver you are, you’ll still get into accidents or get a damaged car because of the vast amount of retards on the roads.

Americans, is it fun getting the driver license 2 years before us? :frowning:

I refuse to ever drive in a country that has its roads reverse from ours. It’s just not worth the heartache and hit to my insurance.

I just drove 100 miles for work this morning. Does that count as needing a car?

Yes :3 .

I’d like to drive in a place where they drive on the left though. I think it’d be pretty cool.

I still think this is a stupid idea, most people are still to immature to drive at the age of 16.

like Bolteh said, it’s easy, but the hardest part people have is paying full attention to the roads and their surroundings when driving.

ya well…you get to drink before us

What mango said.

Of all the things I’d let a 16 year old command, a car would be waaaaay down on my list.

None of you have ever driven car in my country. first time I tried on road I nearly died. some people drive like psychos and you won’t see it until you are driver.

Get a vespa

I’d love to see Americans driving over here.

“What that up ahead in the road? Where is the road going? Why is it turning?”

We have corners in the national speed limmit zones, which are basically moorland roads, and some are epic to drive on! Although yank cars would be awfull at it.

This monday, 2 of my friends were celebrating their birthdays at a hotel in a neighboring city (Laval). They had 5 different kinds of alcohol and a shitload of weed. It was 2am so I put in the address in google maps and it told me to bike for about 40 minutes, there was 8 people there, had a blast, didn’t sleep, biked back in the morning. Then I found out they spent about 120$ on taxis to get there and back.

You need to understand that nobody cool drives cars that are made in the US

Except maybe muscle cars, old ones

Well I got it when I was 16 (a month before I turned 17) and I havn’t been involved in any car accident yet.

It’s great the uk is just one large rally course. :smiley:

In America some of the speed limits are so stupid though.
