My DH doesn't have his. He moved to the city before he turned 18 for uni and was quite happy to use public transport. Still is![]()

Ive only just got my Ls at 30 but still havnt been out in the car
I got my L's at 16 but only got my P's at 24 while i was 39wks pregnant with DD2.
The only reason i got them was because DF booked me some driving lessons, i'd probably still be using PT if he hadn't done that for me.
I've had my L's for 4 years- driving scares me
Like a PP, my DH drives me wherever I need to go or I catch the bus.
Must get off my lazy behind and get some lessons!
Being a passenger in a car scares me way more than being the driver. I couldn't survive without my license. Living in the country makes it more of a necessity than if i was in metro area too.
I got my L's the day I turned 16, I got my P'S when DS was 11 months old! (Only 2 years ago) I now have 1 month to go and I will have my full license (yaya!!!) took me long enough...Dp got sick of chauferring me everywhere, we also moved about an hours drive from my parents place, which was a bus and two trains for me not driving, ahh its so much easier now!
BUT , ever since I have started driving my rear end is just getting bigger, and bigger.. (not to mention the rest of me!)
interesting fact: I have a complete photographic record of me since I was 16, every nine months, getting another L's photo taken, LOL
I should probably mention I'm 31 now!

I got my L's through high school because I did a drivers ed short course. (1999)
I didn't go for my P's until 2005, the year before DD was born. Before that I didn't have a need to drive, my boyfriends always had cars and when I met and moved in with DH we were so close to everything I still didn't need it and he wanted to drive.
I think it's a good thing to have, even if just an auto licence.
Me too! DH says I'm a terrible passenger, all jumpy and not trusting - I tell him it's not that I don't trust him, I don't trust all those other idiots out on the road. I feel in more control of things when I'm driving as I'm a lot more careful than him.
Even though I've been driving for years, I am considering booking in to complete a defensive driving course in my new car, as it's a lot bigger than the ones I've driven previously. Could be worth looking into for those still on Ls or Ps too, as it does give you a lot more confidence![]()
Get your licence! You wont know yourself!! I waited til I was 22 to get my L's.. Drove on my L's for ages and stupidly got done DUI, so lost it.. Drove whilst disqualified and lost it for a further 2yrs.. After that however I grew up a bit (Thank God!!) and went back on my L's after my disqualification was up and I have now been on my opens for a year!!!
I love being able to drive and could never lose my licence again.. I was so stupid when I was younger, but I'm glad to say I have definitely learnt my lesson!!!
I only got my liscence just over a year and a half ago. I finally bit the bullet because Jelly was going into preschool, and if I didn't drive I would have had to walk to drop her off and pick her up every time she went, rain, hail or shine - with a baby and a toddler in tow. I know the preschool is not far, but given the weather here, it wasn't a prospect I relished. Now I have my liscence I wouldn't change it for the world - it really has opened up the world for me (especially when DH disappears for army), and surprisingly, I have actually found that I enjoy driving, it is cathadic (although, the other drivers on the road can set me on edge).
I don't have my L's and I don't have a choiceI would if I could
