Well, I'm kinda scared to get my license..?

Question

See, I could have gotten it WAYYYYyyyy in the beginning of January, but I've just kept putting it off, and putting it off, and putting it off...

I'm scared that I'll go over there and mess up, that the DMV peopel will be mean...

I'm about to be 17 in October, we have a truck, and because it's rather huge, I rather not drive it, it's not liek the small cars we drove in Driver's Ed. anyhow...

Help..?

I'll owe ya one

:]

Answer 1

you should be for many reasons...

1.  car jacking

2.  MORON CELL PHONE DRIVES KILL PEOPLE....

3. red lights that all 4 ways dont stop kill people watch early morning and sundown because older drivers and your moron younger drivers go right through not paying attention...

4. you have the pot smokers and drunks making it fun to drive and get home alive... late night 1 out of 4 are legally

out of it be careful

5. if you are a woman and the least bit attractive you have nut cases following you, breaking down in an area you dont know... or worse.... wont tell  you what worse is but always

pay attention to where you are when entering your car...the monsters out there are paying attention to you....

6. always have a plan if you break down, i.e tow truck,

charged up cell phone... what to do if approached by a stranger while broken down... calling police if stranded and parents i.e friends to be safe...

7. bad weather like rain can make tires like ice, ice can cause you to go into traffic head on etc... fog and old people suck as well..

8 people that dont give you distance are deadly...always create space in between you and the car in front.. .for each

second you can go 200 or move feet and if you are like not watchin for 1 second or 2 that can be a bad accident...

9. it dont take but a 30 mile accident to put you in a wheel chair or give you a head injury...I think you should google

head injuries and how severe they can be...

10 you have uninsured motorist that will mess you up and well

not help to pay all your bills..ALWAYS GET THE HIGHEST FORM OF COVERAGE FOR YOURSELF ALWAYS...

11. always get your oil done at the most exspensive place..

they will top off all your fluids, look at tire pressure, tell you what they see wrong etc... but dont let them talk you into extras but take the info they said and with smile have your family mechanic check that out and see if you need it...

what ever they are pushing...

12. ALWAYS Have an envelope with your information in it...

never have even 1 beer while driving...new laws are hard

and they can really mess with you i.e suspend you for just

1 beer you are not of age...just not worth it..

13. dont smoke weed ever... it's bad for you and you dont know whats in it and if there is a really bad accident and they

think you did it..well they will test you and you could go to prision...

LOOK I COULD LIST 87 OTHER THINGS... if you are in ANY GHETTO looking place be worried...because well to be blunt... you could be easy to rob, beat up, or worse... you will just look weak... and be easy to attack...

if you are in small town america.. there are allot of nut jobs

there as well.. be careful, and watch your surroundings as well...  be safe and most of ALL PAY ATTENTION EVERY MINUTE YOU ARE IN A VEHICLE FOR YOUR LIFE DEPENDS ON IT AND YOU CAN'T PREDICT SECOND TO SECOND SOME TIRE FLY OUT OF NO WHERE INTO YOUR WINDSHIELD.. But if you are paying attention you might have the time.... THE TIME TO DIVERT your vehicle

to a safe situation.... where someone who was on the cell phone might over react and hit someone head on and kill them all because they didn't respect GOING 50 MILES AN HOUR IN A 1 TON chunck of metal...

  

SAFE driving and always check your tires, replace and rotate them and listen to your parents.. if you parents are idots

then find one of your friends parents to give you advice and take it.... ( and HAVE FUN just take this seriously )

Answer 2

Dont drive!!! youll mess it up!!!

Answer 3

I'm 16 and have my license I got it two months ago. :) It was SOOO nerveracking. But once you get in the car you fly by it. I only missed two and it was REALLY easy. And the people are nice, they tell you not to talk to them(like have a converstation) because they can't. They aren't mean just following the rules. :))

Just pay attention to the road. and you'll be fine.

Answer 4

In some cases, it's good to be scared!  This might be one of them.  Being scared means you realize the dangers involved.  However, it also means that you will probably be (and STAY) responsible.

I haven't met a mean DMV person yet!  Had one that was a little grumpy but I'd bet that's the reason she was behind the desk!  

Learn to drive the truck.  Learn to park it.  Yes, small cars are easier however, if there was ever an emergency and you HAD to drive a large vehicle, you will be glad that you learned to deal with a bigger vehicle.  Trucks aren't all that bad; they tend to be easier to see where the corners are and usually have bigger mirrors than cars which gives you a larger field of view.

Also, think about what's the worst that could happen.  You'd fail your driving test. And you would just go retake it again after some studying and some more practice!  No big deal!
