@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
@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 ..

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.

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.
