License/Permit

Tue Jan 25, 2005 9:33 am

I was just wondering how many of you have your license or permit
Or do any of you just drive around without either, illegally

I just started this thread because I am 16 and get my license on March 22
I have had my permit for 4 months so far and its just going by so slooooow :x

Also if you have a car, what kind?
I dont have shit, and I wont until I get off of my lazy butt and get a job :oops:

I have my permit but I will take my drivers test in 2 FLIPPING MONTHS!

Tue Jan 25, 2005 9:37 am

Got my license last year; 6/23/04 to be exact. Yeah, that permit thing sucks; it takes forever for yours to get processed-at least mine did anyway- and the waits suck ass. My picture sucks too. I look like a fucking martian. As for the kind of car, I'm driving a good 'ol rice burner- a 1998 green Honda Civic. Gets decent gas mileage in this time of HIGH ghas prices. My other car is a 2001 Chevy Prism. 35 miles to the gallon. Before I got licensed, I would ride my bike everywhere-I mean EVERYWHERE. Driving kicks ass. NOTE: both of these cars are not mine. They're my parent's.

You get to a point where you are sick of having your dad sit with your in the car and you just want your damn license.

I'm at that point right now. I feel like committing sucide but making it look like my brother murdered me so hopefully he'll get sent to jail for life

i should be getting my permit seeing as i turned 16, 3 months ago. but i'm not. i've been looking at the book, i have the papers, yet my dad refuses to take me :(
damn

Tue Jan 25, 2005 9:47 am

I waited 2 months after my :bday: to take mine
I failed it the 1st time and almost aced it the 2nd time I went
So I could of already had it by now :( my license that is

How do you fail? That test was so freaking easy I got like one wrong and I was done before the test was over (it kicked me out!). Easy.

Tue Jan 25, 2005 9:52 am

We have like 5 different tests here divided by colors, I had the next to hardest test there was, but I got all of the signs correct, and I only missed 2 more than what was possible to miss and pass
The 2nd time around I had the next to easiest one so :)
I didnt study that much either

Tue Jan 25, 2005 9:56 am

I just sat on a computer and the test popped up and once you got the amount right you needed the program shut down.

Tue Jan 25, 2005 9:59 am

Really?
Mine was on paper and we had to put a slash by the correct answer
How many questions was yours? Or how many did you have to get right

Tue Jan 25, 2005 10:09 am

I got 40/43 but I know there were more questions I just needed to get 40.

Tue Jan 25, 2005 10:25 am

I've had mine since I was 16... over 2 years ago... all I have to say is just be patient and accept whatever car you get. (unless if you're rich, then milk your parents for what they're worth). I was just happy with anything that stops and goes when it's supposed to

Tue Jan 25, 2005 10:39 am

i got a black 99 honda civic

its my baby

Tue Jan 25, 2005 10:49 am

Damn you people are lucky in America driving when your 16!

In Australia, you can get your Learners when your 16 which means that you can drive a car, but only when a person with a license is with you. Then when we turn 18 we can get our license to finally drive a car when we want to...

One good thing in Australia tho ius that we can buy alcohol when were 18 not 21 :lol:

Here in BC you need to wait for a loooong time.

1) take driving lessons of some kind.

2) take a test

3) 12 months with a red 'L' sign in the back of your car which means you have to drive with someone else who is 25+ and has a full license.

4) take another test

5) 24 months with a green 'N' sign in the back of you car. You can drive by yourself and can have a maximum of one non immidiate family member in the car. One friend.

6) Take yet another test

7) Now you have a fulll license.

Tue Jan 25, 2005 11:31 am

hah... only 12 months of N for me + no limitations except for the alcohol thing :D

oh, and... i can do teh class 5 test already, but i havn't touched a steering wheel in a couple months already and i'm lazy...
i just take the skytrain to school anyways :)
upasses are awesome (Y) :cool:

Tue Jan 25, 2005 11:51 am

I walk to school...15-20 minutes. I can get a ride if it's harsh raining though. You city folk and your skytrain...

Then again I live in West Van and there are beaches and mountains and everything in between. :D :P

Tue Jan 25, 2005 11:54 am

well i have to get to surrey... from burnaby... :|

lol surrey is harsh ghetto... there're bums, ambulances and cops everywhere outside the skytrain station... every single day :lol:

Tue Jan 25, 2005 11:57 am

I suppose walking might be a little unreasonable for that kind of commute. :lol:

We have 30 questions and can only miss 9 I think? Im pretty sure thats it
But we are very stupid here, Im not stupid though :wink:


12 Months you other guys? and even longer for others, :x thats crazy

We take a permit test at 16 here, wait 6 months and take a driving test and you have your license :)
