When I was about 4 years old.

Oh wait, you don't mean bicycle?

 

I dunno, never drove a car yet.

18. During summer break because fuck learning in the winter.

 

 

 

Ofc I drove before then. My father taught me the basics, I actually drove back home with the instructor after the first lesson, which is not exactly allowed.

Learned to drive at 17 but passed when I was 18, don't drive any more tho. With uni it's just pointless as there is nowhere to park quicker to take the metro.,

Though I waited about a year longer than everyone else around me to get my license/permit, I didn't actually start driving with a license until I was almost 17.

Haven't properly driven yet... Dont really like it tbh :L kinda terrifying, but i know roughly what to do from driving in my parents car, or with friends throughout the years. 

 

But i don't really know how to drive. 

Bleigh!  Ever hear of AC series?

I first drove like in July of this year though I haven't gotten behind the wheel yet so I guess it's not really a set date yet since I only have an instruction permit. I guess unlike the other 15 year old's (almost 16 year old's) I'm not in too much of a rush to get my provisional license.

As far as I'm aware people in the UK don't drive before 17 period, there isn't any large ditches and country roads at least in Liverpool

I technically know how to drive, if I'm good at it is another question entirely. I'm 18 and don't have a license...for many reasons really. Main one being I don't have a use for one nor do I care.

You can drive at 15 in the states if you're with someone of age 21 or older.

I started when I was 12... I moved a 1987 Hyundai Grace from parking spot to parking spot with the help of my uncle...

 

My father started giving me regular lessons when I turned 16...

Driving school before I turned 18... and got my non-professional license at age 18...

 

looking to get a professional license (and upgrade it so that I'm allowed to drive >4.5T vehicles) when my current one expires...

+1 for learning how to drive properly. 

 

I'm proud of you, random internet person. 

Our Grace. The Feathered One. He shows us the way. His bob is majestic and shows us the path. Follow unto his guidance and His example. He knows the one true path. Our Saviour. Our Grace. Our Father Birb has taught us with His humble heart and gentle wing the way of the bob. Let us show Him our reverence and follow in His example. The True Path of the Feathered One. ~ Dimboble-dubabob III

 I'm 14 and I will be driving at 15 and I will be allowed to drive alone by 16.
