Don't worry about it it. I'm sure you'll get over it eventually. Bergioyn Send a noteboard - 18/12/2011 09:58:59 AM
As a comparison, I drove into a ditch in my first driving test. :P And there's more people (and cars most likely) in just Manhattan than in whole of Finland.

I would love to drive on empty country roads. Vivien - 13/12/2011 10:08:35 PM 1137 Views
I had to take the driving test 3 time before I passed (posted at the wrong place ) Linda - 13/12/2011 11:43:44 PM 1274 Views

Seriously? Why? At 13 you should have had some awareness of the danger you were posing to others Vivien - 13/12/2011 10:27:59 PM 1255 Views

Probably just a difference in perspective. Kids sneaking a vehicle for a jor ride is pretty common. everynametaken - 15/12/2011 03:51:30 AM 1237 Views

It must be harder to overcome that natural fear in NYC. Sareitha Sedai - 13/12/2011 06:44:28 PM 1216 Views
Yeah, absolutely. Vivien - 13/12/2011 10:32:25 PM 1331 Views

Isn't it traditional to fail your first test? Or is that just around here? Legolas - 13/12/2011 08:14:01 PM 1198 Views
I wouldn't think so Dark Knight - 13/12/2011 08:25:36 PM 1086 Views

It's rare to pass on the first try here. (according to driving instructor) Vivien - 13/12/2011 09:44:39 PM 1264 Views

Maybe they're the ones who couldn't hack driving in NYC? *NM* Vivien - 14/12/2011 12:21:09 AM 625 Views
I wonder how many people that have been driving for years and years would fail if they had to take Tashmere - 14/12/2011 12:03:55 AM 1234 Views
Oh I think most people with years' worth of driving experience be fine. Vivien - 14/12/2011 12:27:09 AM 1362 Views

Did you ever attend a driving school? *NM* Palatine - 14/12/2011 05:29:33 PM 547 Views
I don't think so. Vivien - 15/12/2011 05:22:09 AM 1253 Views

That's not a sign. Aeryn - 14/12/2011 05:29:36 PM 1206 Views
I take exception to this. Stephen - 14/12/2011 06:29:40 PM 1147 Views
Whoa. rebelaessedai - 15/12/2011 07:21:52 AM 1242 Views
Fewer cars on the road. Fewer double-parked cars. *NM* Aeryn - 15/12/2011 06:25:21 PM 483 Views

LOL! You guys are funny. rebelaessedai - 17/12/2011 06:52:22 AM 1231 Views
Also, you can tell when there's someone around the corner, because of the headlights. Tim - 19/12/2011 04:18:26 PM 1195 Views
Oooh, that's a good point. Vivien - 19/12/2011 05:17:16 PM 1312 Views
It's more pronounced and important in the countryside where there are no streetlights. Tim - 19/12/2011 05:51:25 PM 1305 Views
In the country there are deer aerocontrols - 20/12/2011 05:53:17 AM 1190 Views

I'm older than you and there's no way I would have willingly gotten behind the wheel at 17. Vivien - 15/12/2011 05:12:29 AM 1140 Views
I found driving nervewracking until I got to do it by myself. NZ has a great system, IMO. Rebekah - 15/12/2011 01:48:19 PM 1076 Views

Amusing (to me) comparison to sex risks. Vivien - 17/12/2011 05:50:16 PM 1239 Views

No. But it is true that my risk aversion coefficient is too high. Vivien - 17/12/2011 06:49:33 PM 1056 Views
