    No I do not. I'm too young apparently. But my parents want me to learn soon so they don't have to keep driving us to school.

    I drive a 2004 Nissan Sentra. I little slow and old, but it's reliable and gets me where I need to go. Great gas mileage.

    I am too young for even taking the license applications at the moment. The age for permits here in Canada is, I believe, sixteen years. However there are a number of laws (or perhaps bylaws?) that put restrictions on driving for anyone under either 18 or 21 years of age which I cannot recall currently, sadly.

    I dunno, I drive in Chicago a lot, especially if I'm staying out late. Public transit would take me through some dodgy parts of town, so it's safer to take a car. Parking and rush hour traffic is a pain though >.<

    So yeah, been driving for about three years now. I had one pretty bad accident two and a half years ago (nearly totaled the car, but no one got hurt apart from some whiplash. I drive my Grandpa's '97 Honda Accord to work and college mainly.

    > eighteen
    > doesn't drive
    >fail.

    I actually feel pretty self-conscious about the fact that I don't drive, just because everyone my age does. My mom doesn't really make me feel better, but honestly, it's not like I had anywhere to to - my dad wouldn't let me get a job, and it doesn't look like I'll be going to school again this semester. Don't get me wrong, I do want to learn how to drive, I just think that I'm a little scared because of all of the car accidents that I've been in; I'm paranoid lol

    I drive something that's only one small evolutionary step above two motorcycles welded together with a cookie jar lid on top. It's a Renault Clio, but an extremely old model.

    I cannot drive. My vision is way too poor to get behind the wheel. I have to rely on everyone else I know to help drive me from place to place.

    Yes I have my license and I drive a 1995 4Runner. It's my mom's and as much as I like the space and security of a mid-sized SUV, I really can't stand the fact I have to spend so much money on gas so I'm working on trying to get a Camry or a Tercel or any Toyota brand car that saves me gas. Also the fact 4Runners over heat.

    I don't think Honda really sucks (not the car itself) but mostly how much it costs to get a Honda branded part. They're really good when it comes to brakes.

    Yo this kid said Hondas suck and drove a dodge as his first car wow O_O
    I got nothing against that was the first car, but dodge... Ehhh not feeling that part man.

    Well anywho I got the new Scion 2012 FR-S 6 Speed, but now that I'm in college can't drive it. Its Stuck at my house -.-

    I've been driving since what like 14 and have done some things man... So I doubt that car will be there when I get back DX

    And Honda's actual don't have good brakes depending on which new model you're talking about. Those hatch brakes are trash and the coupe the original disk plate, and brake caliper they had on it had a faster Accel off ratio than the one the 2011 one has now.

    Used to. Since I moved to China I've been taking trains around or just walking (which suits me just fine, driving is scary here!)

    Back home though, I drove a 2003 Hyundai Accent GLS. She's (yes, 'tis a lady, she's a pretty shade of powder baby blue) almost 10 years old, but gets 34 miles per gallon, and drives great. I plan on running her into the dirt. Then maybe I'll get a Toyota Matrix or something to handle the snow. That's the only thing I hate about my car: it has great traction in the snow, but it can't scale my hilly driveway if there's more than two inches of the stuff.

    I drive. I don't have a car so I use family. Let's see, I drive a Geo Metro (best gas millage ever), a dodge ram hemi (kind of alrightish gas millage), and a jeep grand Cherokee (alright gas millage).

    Oh, true story, I passed a Porsche in the Geo. My adrenaline levels were off the charts.

    I actually don't drive, I'm old enough to learn but it's just not something I'm particularly bothered about. Even if I did learn I probably wouldn't get a car for quite a while, most of my friends have now passed their test but half of them can't afford the insurance. I probably will do eventually but I'm not in a rush to, it's not something that really appeals and to be honest I'm a little scared to.

    The only problem with not learning is that I don't have a license of any kind to use as ID, I've had to find other forms of ID that they accept.

    I don't drive even though I'm old enough to start taking the tests and everything now. I'm not in a rush to really learn at the moment. Unlike in the US where if you live in suburbia or a rural area and things are pretty far apart, I can usually get from place to place simply by walking, biking or if it's too far, there's always a bus I can catch so I don't really need to drive at the moment. Although when I do start taking a driver's ed course, I'm probably going to take classes to get a license for both a car and motorcycle. Driving a motorcycle is more common over here and with it being much cheaper to buy than a car and offering great fuel economy as well, it's perfect for a college student like me. Plus if I were ever to need a car, I could simply borrow my mom's until I gather enough money to buy my own. There's that risk that comes with driving a motorcycle though so there's one downside. ​

    I am too young to drive, at the moment. But I am quite frightened about learning how to drive and such on for various reasons. I think I'm mostly worried about the cost and the normal first time driver jitters. "What if I crash?" etc. But beside's that I would like to learn! I live in the middle of nowhere and it takes me forty-five minutes to an hour and a half just to get to my School, so that kinda sucks. It would be nice to learn so I would just be able to get there quicker instead of waiting for a taxi that always late. It would also help for when I want to see my friends, etc.
