I finally got my license!

[tucker342]

It's about damn time! I'm about that last kid in my class to get it...


If you are in Iowa City, and you see a silver 1992 Eagle Talon, than you might wanna get out of there as fast as possible cause that's me:D

Good thing I live far far away from you. I would'nt want to be in the way of a 17 year old driving a Talon :D

Dude that's gotta cost you a bunch in insurance fees...

I am going to get my license on Wednesday! This is way too freaky! :) I still have to take that stupid written test even though I passed Drivers ED!

[Nyarlahotep]

Gratz tucker.

[FrogMan]

yeah, forgot to say that, congrats :) man it's been a long time from 17yo to now :)

[JeeberD]

If my grandma tells me that some punk kid in a Talon cut her off I'm gonna have to come up there and bitch slap you...

Drive safe dude. :D

[RPI-Fan]

Yea', as someone who got their license a bit over a year ago - don't do anything stupid.

It's not worth it. Ever. At all.

I've driven very safe, and had safe results, but I know people who are fucking morons and

a) lose their car
b) lose their license
c) get hurt

Drive safe.

i concur

do not be stupid... or if you are going to be stupid(as many of as are) don't get caught. I got busted for having a whole bunch of booze in my car while i was driving (under 21 at the time). I wasn't drinking or drunk or anything, but i still got a $200 fine and my license suspended for 6 months. Not to mention a nice ride down to the police station, fingerprinting, mug shots, etc etc etc

the lesson here is - always put the beer in the trunk under a blanket or something

[MrBug708]

RPI-

Your name is Kyle?

[RPI-Fan]

Nah.

[MrBug708]

I thought so. Wasn't it like Kenny/

[korme]

Aww, the boys are growin' up.

Who'da thought it'd be this soon.

Just yesterday illini was a wee freshman and tucker was still in the womb.

We'll never get those years back.

I feel really really old reading this thread. I have had my license longer than these new drivers have been alive.

[tucker342]

damn, you're an old fart:D

[tucker342]

dola-

it's going to be a little while before I drive the Talon, cause I don't know how to drive a stick yet.... so right now I'm driving a 1994 Dodge Caravan... it doesn't get better than that:D

I feel your pain. I have a 14 year old son who's gonna be driving in a few years... I can't fathom it.

You know, you're only 5 years my senior... when do I qualify for "curmudgeon" status?

Dude, you must have had your son very, very early! :) And isn't your wife expecting one for this Fall or something like that. That'll be an amazing age difference between the two...

[Anrhydeddu]

You're getting there. Maybe you should get the title, "Apprentice Curmudgeon".

Well, technically he's my step-son, but my wife (who's only a little over a year older than I am) did have him very early. We're expecting our first child together at the end of October... but I think the little bugger will be early - it's already enormous (or, dare I say... colossal?) according to the doctor, and she doesn't relish the thought of birthing a full-term, 11 pound child that could be nearly two feet long...

As for the age difference... I look at it pragmatically... as the oldest of 6 kids myself, I was 15 years older than my youngest brother... so my son has the same arrangement, just without all the siblings in between. ;)

[Coffee Warlord]

Heh.

I remember when I got my license, and a bright shiny new car.

What did I do 3, yes 3 days after I got my wheels?

WHAM. A curb jumped out and attacked me, blowing out the 2 right tires and bending the shit out of the rims.

Whoops.

Don't be like me.

[tucker342]

The cool thing is I didn't buy my car, my grandpa gave it to me:D

[tucker342]

dola-

One of my friends spent about $5000 on a car, and within 24 hrs, he crashed into a tree in his drive way:eek:

His mom than got him another car...

[Craptacular]

Make sure you wear your seat belt.

My boss is a mormon, and every Friday we have lunch with some mormon missionaries (yea', I know, weird... but you get used to it)

Anyways, one of the elders said that his sister got in <b>3</b> accidents the first day having her license. Three.

And apparantly she's gotten in many more since then.

Nothing here either! Just got my license last Wednesday. It feels like I am doing something totally illegal when I "go out." Wow, this is just too weird. :)

[tucker342]

I know same here:D

It's great not having to call my mom to tell her it's time to pick me
up from work:D

[JeeberD]

My parents forced me to get my license (I was nearly 18 when I got it) because they were tired of picking me up at work at 1am five nights a week... :)
