Driving Before 17

[Grippz]

No you'll still need to go through the legal procedures. I wouldn't even recommend driving on private land because you'll pick up some major bad habits before your test.

Couldn't have said it better myself :-) You could however start saving up for your insurance :-). That's going to cost you $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

I went driving on private land a few times with my parents just to get used to driving before lessons. I passed first time before I turned 18 after 25 proper lessons, and trust me you can't just learn what you think you need to know on private land then just dive head first. You will need proper lessons, and most likely quite a few. What they can do is when you turn seventeen you can do one week and two week crash courses and then do your test, where you learn pretty much everything in those one or two weeks (they will be long sessions each day though) so it would probably best to do in a summer holiday or something like that. My insurance is just over 1k, however thats cus of the type of car I have and the fact the policy isnt my own. As you are a boy, a young one, it would be up to 2-3k.

I got a quote... 5 n half thousand was the cheapest for me

You could also get one of those horrible little moped things at 16?? So if you really wanted to drive you could get one of those I guess! All you need to do is take some sort of test and have a provisional driving licence
