How old were you when you got your driver's license?

Or do you not have one? I'm 20 and I do not yet have mine.

I was seventeen. I had purchased a new car so I quickly got my license.

@SweetMae that’s awesome!!! I loved Pintos! I haven’t seen one since my childhood
SweetMae · 70-79, F
@Spokeskitties75 I was very proud of buying a brand new car at that age. It got great gas mileage.
Spokeskitties75 · 46-50, M
@SweetMae that was an accomplishment to be proud of!! They probably got better gas mileage then some of the cars now!

I was in my early 30's Ihonestly never wanted to drive .I still don't
SW-User
@SW-User I don't really want to either. There are just some times when not being able to is really inconvenient. But right now I don't have any plans to get a license.

@SW-User I understand. It is unfortunately around here it is needed...I honestly still dread it ..I also refuse to drive on highways..people are crazy, they text and drive and are careless of others ..

The day after my 16th birthday.

Back then, there was no waiting period

16 … not sure why i thought it was so important … but it was my highest priority at the time. didn't need a car … usually walked or used bicycle.

I set myself a personal goal. If I could make it thru a week with out falling off my push bike or walking into a pole I'd get my drivers licence.
I got mine at 17, summer of 1995. I didn't get my first car though until several years later when I got married.

I was 14, when I got my learners permit, at the time it allowed me to operate farm vehicles on the road.

Got my learner's permit at 15/8 months, and I got my license at 16.
25. Don't ever compare yourself to others. You have your own time, KR.
16 for my drivers license. 28 for my CDL.
I was sixteen.
But my grandma was 55 before she got hers. Always thought that was crazy.
@bijouxbroussard I just couldn't believe it because she lived out in the country for pretty much her entire life.
@boklenholley7 My friend was used to her husband driving her everywhere. Then she was widowed.
@bijouxbroussard that's sad.

I was 18 when I got my driver's license. I hate driving though 🙄 butni have to take myself to school and work
SW-User
@SW-User Yeah, I don’t imagine I’ll ever enjoy it even if I do get a license someday. It would be purely practical.
SW-User
@SW-User I will say though, I did fail the driving part twice 😅.

17. It was like getting a ticket to the universe. To give you an idea of how long ago it was, I went over to a friend's house to watch a rented VHS tape of the just-released Purple Rain movie.
MartinTheFirst · 26-30, M
21 and I don't have one.
Mrsbetweenfatandfit · 31-35, F
18 I waited until then because I didn’t want to need drivers ed
