mostly my ex bestie taught me. a bit my mom. a bit my dad.

my dad's sign owns a cattle ranch so lot of the kids started driving young. not to help with chores really, but just for fun

my mom taught me to not gaf about what other drivers think of you when you're driving safe. helped me a lot when i was getting tailgated going 45/50 in a 45 as a new driver

The first time I ever drove I was around 12 or 13 . My father was drunk and insisted on going to the beach, it was late at night and my mother was furious at the idea of him driving, they argued over it and finally he shouted out does anyone want to go to the beach with me!
I said I would go, my mom said no but dad took me anyway. We got to the beach ( about 45 minutes away) and he continued to drink heavily.
Finally at around 2am he said that we were going to go home, staggering back to the truck he realized that he couldn’t drive so he gave me the keys and told me to drive!!
He coached me along so I wouldn’t get us lost and between his dosing off and me driving all the way back at about twenty miles an hour, we eventually got home, probably a two hour drive or more!!
That’s the first time I ever drove and I didn’t try driving again until I was eighteen
