who taught you how to drive?

I learned to drive a motorized vehicle that had 4 wheels at the age of 9 when I was growing up on the farm. It was a very small Ford 8N tractor and our barn doors were 20 feet wide, so I had no issues with keeping it between the goal posts when entering and exiting.

My Dad was always a strong believer in Murphy's Law however, which is why he was always present during one of those practice maneuverers! Once safely outside with nothing to hit except the house itself for as far as the eye could see, he hooked up the wagon and I became the official puller of the wagon during tobacco harvest time each year!

When I turned 10, he taught me how to ride a one-speed motorized minibike which he resurrected from the town dump and at the age of 16, I went for my motorcycle driver's license using a Yamaha trail bike and have been riding a motorcycle ever since, rain or shine!
