I was 26 and not a good driver when I got the licence so I promptly wrecked the car (to $1,500 in damage) -- about 1 month after. I paid out of pocket rather then tell the insurance about the accident. So, invest in good driver's ed!

I got mine when I was 18.

I used a private instructor rather than going throuh driver's ED classes.

I felt kind of behind all my friends becuase they got theirs at 16, but then I thought about it, and my older brother didn't get his until he was 22, so I was just about right.

:thumbs: yup a month after i turned 18, because u can only ask for one when u turn 18 and it has a lot of bureaucracy, otherwise i'd get it the day i turned 18, or if i could when i was 14 (i was an excellent driver back then already) :thumbs:
