Wait, Australians get to drive at 16/17? No fair :(

In b4 Australia's road kills increase 200%.

:P

Wait, Australians get to drive at 16/17? No fair :(

I heard in the US you get to drive at like 15?

We have to wait until 18, or 17 with supervision (ie. snoozefest ). Not that I'm shelling out the several thousand euros necessary to get all the lessons and the license anyway :P

Some better news, probably not to the general public though. I got my L plates! Another female Asian driver on the road! No fatalities so far, but have had some VERY close calls with a mailbox and a log. Only been 'properly' driving 3 times.

 

so thankful theres a couple of 1000k distance, not that the local roads are that safe anyway. Theres quite a few i'd like to use a spike strip or caltrops on when they treat the road as a dragstrip & laugh @ them as they crashed into trees or telegraph poles.

L plates require a supervising drive as well, and you can get your P plates (don't need a supervising driver) at 18 w/ 120 hours driving xp (or at 21 w/out driving xp).

 

Congrats (on the L's, not the possible Tonsillitis :P)!

At minimum 16 Americans can get a permit. I don't know if you others have that, but it means that one can drive as long as somebody with a driver's liscence is in the passenger seat. Only after some months (depending on the state) after having a permit can one apply for a licence.

I also think that in some states (Maine?) the driving age is below 16 because they are very rural, however most states have a driving age of 16.

Yep I drove (legally) at 15. Started on main roads at 14.

im having trouble figuring if aabid and his parents issue or you not going to the doctors is worse
