On a very similar note to J41's driving thread, I too need to get it together and learn how to drive. I should technically be on my green P's by now but I've been putting off driving for years. I've had my learner's license since October 2016 and drove for one hour back in 2017. I've been super reliant on the public transport in my area but it's about time I go get my P's.
I've got a list of 11 P-platers (possibly more?) I owe multiple rides to. I admire their generosity and patience to drive me around, pick me up from stations and drop me home. But most of all, I owe my mother a
shit ton of rides. She didn't learn how to drive until she was 35 and the main reason she only started to drive was because she wanted to drive me to school when it was snowing (when we used to live back in the UK). She inspires me for being the only family member who could drive so I would love to repay her back the favour.
But also I just wanna go to drive through's so I don't have to keep paying the delivery fee on Uber Eats hohohohoho.
As of right now, I currently have 8.5 hours in my logbook. I had my initial lesson with NRMA last week and I had another lesson today. My driving instructor told me I was quite a good driver for someone who's only done two lessons so he made drive on the main road today and all the roundabouts in my area.
Driving is actually quite fun surprisingly. I hope to have my P's by May(?) next year.
Please join me in this journey as I walk one step closer to adulthood
