Probably the most difficult day of my life was when I watched my son drive out of the driveway on his own. I guess we raise them to be independent, but it ain't easy!

shes terrifying. Hope to have a car on the road soon for her our 8 cylinder 4 wheel drives are too big and powerful for her to handle and we cannot afford for either one of them to be wrecked. My mom told me to let her drive them maybe she wont mind letting her use her jeep

we have an 05 ford expedition and a 94 chevy silverado its our plow truck, wood hauler, basically a beat up old truck. would rather she drive the truck

neighbors gave her their daughters old car she drove for college its a 92 dented up mercedes with no radio

nothing to really distract her. neighbors are replacing filters and brake lines and brakes on it. they want to be sure is road worthy before we put it on the road. and its rear wheel drive imagine the fun shes gonna have in the winter learning to drive.

My youngest had his learner's permit and was driving my wife to 7-11, 4 blocks away
permit only a week or so old.
He pulled into a parking spot, and somehow got confused, hit the gas,
the car jumped the curb and pushed a trash can right through the front of the store.
Falling glass dented the hood, luckily no one was hurt.
The middle kid whose car he had been driving was furious (as if he were accident free!)

oh no so happy no one was hurt. My dd is terrifying she hasnt learned to control the gas pedal and she still under turns the corners. every day she drove has been a near accident.
