Do you have your drivers licence? If so, do you drive often and do you enjoy driving? Should I get in a car with you or are you too dangerous a driver?

I've been driving since I was 17, I like to think I'm pretty safe as I've yet to have any incidents so far. I don't particularly like driving though.

I had a 50CC moped that got me around, only fell off it once. Passed my full license in 2013, and have been driving ever since.
I pretty much drive everyday, I only have a Citreon C1 VTR so it's not amazingly powerful but it's nippy and I love it-though I'm a very cross driver, ha.
Just wait until I'm 21, I'll be put on the insurance for the Landrover Defender, you wouldn't want to be on the road when I'm in that

I'm currently taking lessons for my drivers license, but for the moment being you don't want to sit next to me in the car. (Or anywhere close on the road for that matter.) It looks so easy in games, but I'm almost scared to death if I have to drive on the highway. :(

I have a license, I can drive, I have done so before, I just don't tend to drive around here...so it's been a while.
If I had a huge need for it, I'm sure I would, but I currently don't.

I'm not too bad a driver to be in the same car with whenever I do drive, though. I tend to be cautious. Maybe sometimes a little too cautious, but hey.

(Related, I was privy to a conversation recently about how I should be "given the chance" to drive more around here. While it was said to someone else. While I was sitting right there, like not even a foot away. Awkward. Why not just ask me if I actually want to drive around, instead of talking about how I should to someone else?)

I've never learned to drive but I've always wanted to. Anxiety on the road while others drive me often holds me back from actually going to get my license. I've been in two fender benders with my Mother because of dumbass drivers not paying attention and it doesn't really help lol. But I like the freedom that comes with driving so I need to push myself to do it.

AND I HAD A FEELING THAT I BELONGED
I HAD A FEELING I COULD BE SOMEONE, BE SOMEONE, BE SOMEONE

I have my permit. It took me quite a long while to get it, since I procrastinated and had a few real life issues to sort through first. But honestly, it was a good thing I waited until I was older to get my permit, because I'm a much safer driver now. I'm not as reckless, and the rules are imprinted on my brain.

YOU GOT A FAST CAR
IS IT FAST ENOUGH SO YOU CAN FLY AWAY
awk, i took too long to reply and now there's a gap

i have a license but it's been missing for like two weeks so i've been a slightly more cautious driver. i'm not a bad driver but i do enjoy driving fast, and i do have a little road rage but my passenger seat is (usually) open if you ever want to tag along. i have heated seats.

I have a driver's license but I have no insurance and I actually haven't driven a car in over 3 years so it's basically useless. I just rely on the bus because I have no need for a car in the city I live in. I'm a bit afraid of driving too, so... :( I don't think I'll drive until there's a really good reason for me to.

I've had a permit/license since I was 15 and I got my car around one year and a half later. I drive almost daily and sometimes enjoy it. I don't enjoy traffic.

I've had my driver's license since I was 18 years old, but got my learner's permit when I was 16. Unfortunately, I don't have the best driving record, since I've been in two accidents (one of which I totaled my first car), but I don't have any other traffic citations from that.

I do have mine. I greatly enjoy driving and drive as often as I can. I don't have my own car, but I plan to get my own soon. Driving feels like pure freedom to me. The feeling of knowing I have the ability to go wherever I want with it makes me so happy and I absolutely love driving.
Yes, you should get in a car with me. I may not be the most law abiding driver (I speed a lot. Like, 20 above the speed limit), but I also know what I'm doing. I'm a good driver and I'll get you there. A car ride with me is one of the most fun experiences of your life. I'll make you experience some some thrills you've never experienced in a car.

Yes, I do. Yes, I drive daily. Sometimes I enjoy it. And you'd generally be safe with me behind the wheel, but I might do some loud launches that have no bite just to mess with you. Outside of that I make it a point that my passengers don't notice how fast we're going by not being aggressive in getting up to speed.

I've had my drivers licence and my own car for almost two years now and I love it! At first I was really nervous, not helped by being in a car crash about two weeks after passing my test. Last year wasn't so good for me driving wise either since I went on a speed awareness course and rear ended someone. Since then though I'd say my driving has significantly improved, I still have a habit of speeding but other than that I'd say I'm a pretty decent driver.

Had mine since the day I turned 16 which feels like foreeeever ago.

As to if I like driving, it depends where and how long. I can drive for days in New Hampshire but I get cranky at others stupidity after driving for how long in Boston. DAMN IT THATS NOT EVEN A TURNING LANE YOU IDIOT.

I can say I wouldn't be the hazard to your health in driving. My junker would probably kill us both first. I suppose I don't help by being a bit generous with the accelerator. By the time the cars behind me at a stoplight start moving I'm about half way down the road...

I've had my license for, uh, over 6 years, car for about 3. Feel like I've become a worse driver with increasing frequency of driving - since I started commuting, my driving style has slowly shifted from "cautious and fuel-saving" to "reckless and selfish"... thanks to my underpowered old compact car I haven't been getting a lot of speeding fees though.
Got worse at parking, too (in that regard it's not mentality but incompetence though)

Yes, I've have my licence for over 3 years and counting. Yes, I drive quite regularly as it's my main form of transport other than walking. Yes, I enjoy driving, especially at night. Finally, yes, you may get in the car with me because I'm generally a safe driver, as confirmed by my family and friends.

I've had my license since summer '09 when I turned 18. I really didn't have a choice since I needed to drive myself to my college classes :P my first car (and only to date) was a cute small yellow car I called "bumblebee". I sold him when I moved to the city since it's not as economical to have a car here. I still drive my parent's cars when I'm home in the suburbs.

I have too much road rage to enjoy driving all that much. I prefer to be the passenger & the one who picks the music. I do love blasting music and diving at night though, it's peaceful <3
