No provisional, no car, wouldn't really say I have no interest, but no immediate plans.

No i can't, I've been on my learners for like 2 years and I regret not doing any hours whilst I've been at school. I'll regret it even more next year too.

[Mikey]

Use provisional license for ID.. have done since I was 18, I'm 20 now. I'm looking to get lessons soon, just don't have the cash for it at the moment.

[Ekelektra]

I have had my learners permit for 2 years but have only done one hour.

I was thinking that

but yes I can drive, I've been driving for years

[Charz777]

I've failed my test twice now and just want to give up. I love driving but hate taking the test! I was really confident but failing just makes you feel **** about it all.

[MKR&*42]

I have a provisional and have been doing lessons for god knows how long, think im ready to book in a test to get full license soon though :D

Oh and i passed my theory first time yay

[Alkaz]

I have a provisional and I am insured on my dads car which I drive like everywhere with him/friends with full licences.

[Jssy]

I'm 18 and am going to get provisional soon just for I.D, no point driving yet as I'm an unemployed student so can't afford lessons or car or insurance. If I become a community Midwife in the future I'll require a car so I'll probably learn when I'm at uni

[Samantha]

I have a provisional for my ID, I don't have a car though. I haven't really be bothered about learning to drive until more recently.

[scottish]

what do you fail on? just silly stuff or do you mess up manoeuvres?

[Charz777]

My manoeuvres were perfect, even though I thought I'd screw up on them. On my second test I did the most perfect parallel park ever! :P

Erm... first test I got a serious for overtaking too close to a cyclist which was just stupid on my part. Only got 4 minors so would have got quite a good pass otherwise. The second test I got a serious for messing up a right turn at a junction which I definitely deserved; I didn't even know what I was doing was wrong so I was wondering why I wasn't taught it, but yes, I definitely deserved that one :P I've still not killed anyone yet, so s'all good...

[scottish]

what went wrong with the right turn? :O

[tpittman-11]

I have a full license. Had my own car throughout high school, but got rid of it when I moved for University. Plan to buy a new truck in April though!

[Shar]

I've had my provisional for a few years now. I'd like to take up lessons again soon.

[GommeInc]

I have a full license and my own car :) Just realised I'm on my 5th car :S

[Circadia]

no im 16

You're old enough to get a provisional license and learn to drive a moped at 16, you could've applied for you provisional at the age of 15 and 9 months

I've got a provisional and no car, I'm currently learning to drive but I don't think I'll be getting a car any time soon the insurance is too much

[jesus]

its spelt licence not license

[:odey:]

Ye I've been driving for just over 4 years.

[Amberr]

yeah i've been driving for nearly two years although I've just got off the phone to the insurance company asking to cancel my policy :(:(:(:(. cant afford to keep my car for uni, it's going to be so hard having to actually use public transport now... and worse walking gross.

[Wizzdom]

Yes and.....

[-:Undertaker:-]

I've not got a license or a car.

Didn't see any point in learning when I wouldn't be driving for a few years.

[Rachel]

I have my full license and my own car (3 cars so far) :)

[Paige.]

i have a full license and my own car

[Oleh]

Yeah, well it should've been 3 points, did a speed awareness course so got none, met Howard Webb too which made up for having to pay £85 :D

[scottish]

was he doing speed awareness too? lol

[Oleh]

was he doing speed awareness too? lol


Yep! Haha

[MilksAreUs]

No.

[Metric1]

full license, a car and a truck.

[Zelda]

have a provisional licence, but that's only so i can go out drinking and stuff using it. no intention of learning to drive until i've at least finished uni.

[OldLoveSong]

Never heard bout provisional license before. In canada we have G1, g2 and full G. I dont have a need for a car rn so i dont have any

It's basically a license to say you can drive a car but you need someone with a full license, 3 years driving experience and also 21 years of age or over to be sat with you while driving. So from what I can find it's the equivalent of a G1 license over in Canada :) In the UK we do not have a G2 type license, as you have to either be a student driver or a fully license driver with no limitations, rather than in between. That said, they keep trying to ban young drivers from driving in cars after a certain time and/or with passengers of a certain age.

[AgnesIO]

Full license, no car.

Prefer to spend my cash on other things, particularly as I cannot really have a car at Uni.

[Ahnime]

I don't have a car, I'm not old enough aha.

[Becca]

full license no car
grandma died left me loads of money, bought a hyundai i40, can't afford to run it, sold it, got a peugeot 106 because i'm poor, can't even drive it because it's a piece of **** with no power steering

i am getting on a bus in 5 minutes

[Clumping]

yes and I LOVE it

[Phil]

Around 60 people who have either a provisional or a full license. Not really sure why but that's quite surprising :O

[j0rd]

most people have a provisional these days with no intention to learn to drive. merely use it as ID, so not that surprising really

[scottish]

yeah I'd say more surprising thing is there's more people here with license + access to a car (38 people) compared to those who don't have a full license (31 people)

But lol Voters: 69

[kuzkasate]

had a provisional for nearly 2 years and I still haven't started my lessons but I plan to start them in October

[alilbitoflauren]

No I cant :o

[LouisBergev]

I have a personal car and license too.

[scottish]

Still kinda shocked that 63.01% of the voters have a full license :P

[buttons]

driving isn't that difficult but a lot of people think it's important and get really worked up about it.
but think about the amount of chavs and idiots who drive (u should know who i mean lol)

[LouisBergev]

Yes, I can drive and I like travelling a lot.
