Or possibly your license revoked untill you learn how to drive.
Did you contact the owner of the car you hit?

I've decided to hold in my masculine, feminine-degrading comments for this one.

AND THIS IS THE REASON WOMEN SHOULDNT DRIVE...

****, it slipped.

sorry.

Yes, it may be true that she is a hot chick...

And, yes, it may be true that she can drive a manual...

But she is still a woman. And no, women cannot drive. End of story.

I've seen girls trying to parallel park in front of starbucks. They're in such a rush that they just back up until they hit something, then move their car up until they hit something else, then back up, move up, etc etc, until they're satisfied.

hey get your car fixed. no one likes to see a messed up car. except for haters and the jealous folks who mess with other people's property.

during my road test, I completed a good parallel park but then the instructor guy gave me a lookthat gave me goosebumps. so i did it a second time and got about 4 inches from the curb. only problem i had with the test

in VA it's not required to know how to parallel park. I think it's because we don't have any places to parallel park...ya know?

Just because it isn't "required" doesn't mean you shouldn't know how to do it. Are you ever planning on driving outside VA?

Our license tests are waaaaaaaay too easy. They give away licenses to people.

And whats with this whole lets let 16 year old kids drive 200+HP cars. OK maybe one or two out of a thosand can drive it responsibly. But hell...most adults I know shouldn't be in cars with that much power..let alone someone at the beginning of thier driving career. And please no "I've been driving since I was xx years old and I can handle a 200+hp car". Because...1. you probably can't but only THINK you can. 2. You might be one of those two out of a thousand.

90% of people think they are above average drivers . They also say 90% of other drivers are below average drivers.
Anyone see a discrepancy here?

I can "handle" a 1000 hp car. But that doesn't mean I can drive it to it's full potential. Unless you have some training or autox experience...I would venture to say your one of the ones who think they can handle it.

pushing your car too its limits or in your words "full potential" without knocking cones does not mean your any better than the kids who street race.

It's more like "controlled reckless driving".



what does make you better is that you're taking it on the track where there are no innocents in the way

I do have training. I had some lessons with Jeff Andretti. He taught me how to throw cars in and out of corners and such. Also, how to judge better, etc.

I would venture to say your assumptions about me are wrong.
