I swear there were nights when DD was little and a bit unsettled, the only way to get her to sleep was to pop her in the car and go for a drive around the block a few times.
My mum has never had her licence has had her L's before but never got her licence and she is now 60. Dad drives her everywhere or she catches the bus (live in small country town).
I got my L's at 18 and P's just before 21.
Both my brothers have been slow as well!! 1 brother got his L's at 25 or 26 and got his P's some time after he is 30 in oct and has just gone to full licence last week! Other brother got L's at 19 and P's at 21 (has no car and has not driven since he got his licence)
I had my learners for about 6 years. My main motivation for getting my P's was not wanting to have to display P plates, so I got them just before that law came in in QLD. And cos I was so old when I got them, I only had to be on P's for a year before moving to opens.
Not having a licence never bothered me when I was younger, because shops were in walking distance of my parents house and then later DH was always happy to drive me/us around. But once we moved out, public transport was limited to taxis and the odd bus in this town.
I couldn't imagine not driving now, one of the best things to do is go for a drive by yourself, have the tunes cranked and sing badly!
