I just passed my driving test.
After driving in the rain, with half a million stupid drivers interupting me, a dull spirit draining examiner but a $%&#ing awesome instructor.
I am so happy. I am just... SO HAPPY.

I remember passing the driving test felt better than any other pass in my life.

See, maybe that's why I always feel so disappointed by life. Never passed the driving test.
Well done Jonny! :D
-
Congrats!
I really loved the sense of freedom that being able to drive gave me. Just be safe and sensible on the roads, now!
Good stuff,
Roo

Good stuff, enjoy the freedom!

Congratulations Jonny !
I appreciate what a profoundly positive effect it can have on you social and professional lives.
Stay safe - and drive well. :)

The only problem, imo, is all the other tw@ts on the road ignoring stuff because they get too comfortable and stuff, etc.
Learning to drive was an absolute bitch. And not even when you're moving, it's when you're turning in a corner or doing a turn in the road or somewhere.
Damn those people.
-
good for you, i did a cr@p test and still passed first time, god knows what the criteria for passing where.

Why do people always have stories about how badly they did and passed? I did four tests and failed them all on one poxy mistake (a different one each time). I didn't think I'd done anything wrong on the last one, and I was so pissed off I packed it in. :x
Living in London, I don't really miss it but I ever move I'll need to learn again - I'll probably be in my fifties by then. Not looking forward to that. You've done right to learn while you're young.

Congratulation in passing.Good luck in your driving- assume everyone else is an idiot and that they haven't seen you and you should be ok. Always remember that you are in control of a lethal weapon and a moments lack of attention can be disastrous but all in all, tis a useful thing to be able to drive and on odd occasions can be even be enjoyable.

+1. Especially watch out for 4x4s being driving by women who don't realise the size of the vehicle they're driving! Not that I like to generalise :p
So have you got any plans for your own wheels Jonny? Or will you be forgoing that for now?

You'll get used to this soon enough... treat everyone else on the road like an idiot and you should be able to avoid getting into a crash!
-
By all means think (no, KNOW!) that all other road users are sh!t - it's utterly true!
But remember, as a road user, so are you :) Remembering that is the safest way to drive :)

I live in London currently for university so I'm sort of 50/50 why I would need one.
1. Commute to and from univeristy/escape this god damn city when I'm sick of it.
2. Petrol/tax/don't know roads
And I have a sister back in Belfast who doesn't have a car so we'll probably share one but nevertheless it'll be back in Belfast.
Sort of bummed I'm all "Yay" but I don't have a car, lol..

Oh well. If you're in London then it may not be worth it. I have a friend who lives there who has his own car, but lives within the congestion zone. So I think he just leaves it up here at his parents.
-
I don't live in the zone and thankfully will never drive in there.
But I'd love to drive to other areas for photography reasons. Grey, grey and more grey with a hint of blue and grey is not picture potential really.
