I'm a good driver. I've been driving for longer than I care to admit, and haven't had an accident. I used to be a speed demon when I was younger, but now I drive cautiously.
My husband drives like a maniac. I'm always using my imaginary brake when I'm in the car with him. I have to tell him to use his directionals. We've had some classic car arguments. |

I am an excellent driver, since I do a lot of driving that is required for the type of work that I do..and driving around the Los Angeles is not for the timid types

I am an awesome driver. I can drive a stick-shift in traffic while talking on the cell-phone and adjusting the volume at the same time like a pro. I make Jeff Gordon look like he's on a tricycle.
Zero crashes, zero traffic violations. |

Me the person and me the driver are 2 totally different people. Im so nice and slow and patient, but it all changes when I get behind the wheel.
I dunno what it is, but I get really agressive and impatient when Im driving. Im not some speed demon, but if I get someone whos going the exact speed limit, I get so impatient. Though I do admit when it comes to the highway, I do go way too fast and I stay in the passing lane. I hate when 2 lanes merge into one.. I GET SO COMPETITIVE.. some guy like, raced me the other day to beat me in the merge and finally I gave up because I didnt want to get into trouble . I cant help it. When I worked in Plaistow, going back home on 125.. at the set of lights you had to merge. There were days I kid you not where Id be at work and get so overwhelmed about having to deal with it later on Id go the back way. Im not a competitive or agressive person, but when it comes to driving I turn into some.. devil child . Coincidentally, that set of lights is where I got pulled over 2 years ago for speeding.However, when it comes to directionals and such, Im really good. And my eyes are always darting back and forth on the road looking out for my buddies <3.

Oh, and Ive never been in any kind of accident. Amanda is all.. 'youre such a bad driver!' because I drive fast and stuff, yet shes been in 4 yes FOUR accidents in the 2.5 years shes had a license. Minor, but accidents nonetheless. Frankly, I dont need driving lessons from someone who cant even teach themselves. Just because I got one speeding ticket, does not make me the worst driver. </rant>

I think I'm pretty good. I started earlier than most kids probably because my dad and I love cars.
![]() Anyway, I still speed even though I got caught 1 week after I got my license. None since though. But I look at a lot of the teenagers and women in minivans and men in big trucks and I see how much better of a driver I am...I don't go 20 over, I don't dart in and out of traffic just to get 2 feet ahead, I don't have my stereo so loud I can't hear anything, I use my mirrors and turn signals...I get so upset with drivers who do things that are just...STUPID. Sure, I've done things I know are dumb (like the time I took a dip too fast and bottomed out), but some people... |

I hate people that constantly inch up at a stop light, so I enjoy beating them off the line.

i drove once. it was fun. i didn't really do anything except turn and mess with the pedals and speed. my brother is worse. he was driving after he got his permit and he turned to my dad to talk to him instead of watching what he was doing and he was heading right for a fence on a curb until my dad yelled at him to stop. it was funny. and he almost got the outside mirror knocked off by driving too close to the fence.

Not a single ticket or accident since I started driving four years ago. And I'm the same exact way as Crystal. I'm a speed demon on the interstate; I never drop less than 15 above the speed limit unless I'm going over some 11000 ft pass, then I have to go the limit so I don't drive over the side and plummet some 3000 ft to my death.
And people who stay the limit annoy me as well. I have to pass them because I get too damn irritated. I try to make my 300 mile trip as short as possible, so I don't have time to be stuck behind everyone. Trucks, trailers, and RV's also suck.
