I can drive just fine, but I'm so far unable to pass my test because I start panicking as soon as the examiner gets in the car (Note to all soon-to-be drivers: screaming obscenities at the examiner is not generally the best way to convince them that you are deserving of a license). :oops:

I'm 19 and never been behind the wheel of a car. But I go to college in the city where there's buses everywhere so I wouldn't need to drive there anyway.

I've been driving for a few months now. I do feel like it's more difficult for me than the average person - at least that's how I felt in driver's training. It's so overwhelming, I'm worried I'm going to forget to do something and I usually do.
