How many times did it take you to pass drivers’ ed? What about your drivers’ test?
This is a 1 day contest that runs until 11:59 p.m. tonight. Winners will be announced Sunday.
at 22 Im too lazy to take the final test lol But I drove a manual car for 2 yrs and then switched to automatic, all I really need to do is take the FINAL test to get a license but I’m one of the few people on this planet that don’t really care XD
To quote my own mother, “I never learned how to drive. I always thought I’d have someone driving me.” So, no, can’t drive!
I’m 20 and never had lessons or driving test:p I need to save money and i’m not really good at that:P
The driving test took two times, first time it was in a snowstorm, not good
Aced them both on the first try 😉
No driver’s ed in Australia. Have to do it all yourself.
But, I did pass on the first try. (Although the assessor was a bit worried that I drove too SLOWLY! Ha! If only he could see me now…) 🙂
I didn’t have driver’s ed (I don’t think we even knew what is was in the middle of no-where Georgia). And I actually passed my driver’s test the first time, though I did run over the cone at least once.
I had very little experience behind the wheel before starting driver’s ed, but I passed. However, it did take me two tries to pass the dirver’s license test. I was very nervous!
Passed both the first time around.
Just once 🙂 I had a lot of practice driving our riding lawnmower and my lazy sister used to let me pull her car in and out of the driveway so I got the hang of the little stuff. I had a blast in drivers ed, my teacher was one of my softball coaches and I would always take his car through the drive through of Taco Bell
Just once for both. I was so excited to be able to drive!
Got them both in one try.
I passed Driver’s Ed with an A the first time. Also, at my HS, if you had an A or B in the class, you could take the Driver’s Test with our teacher at school. I think I only got marked on a couple things and passed the first try. Taking the test with my teacher was great because when I went to the DMV all I had to do was bring in the paper, take my picture, and I was done. In and out in 10 minutes!
I never took drivers ed. I passed my driving test on the first try.
I took my school’s behind the wheel class, so I didn’t have to take my driver’s test (thank god!) But I did have to do like 40 hours with a certified driving teacher. It was totally worth it!
I never got my driver’s license – it was a long time ago that I was a young girl and I did drive around fields and such – never on the roads – just never got around to getting a license and back then I don’t think they had study tests for it; I know they didnt teach it in school.

I never took drivers ed.and when i took my drivers test they wouldn’t give it to me. guy mumbled under his breathe lead foot..lol.
Here,you need to be over 18 for the drivers test. So i’m still young XD
I started school at 4 years old (this was back when the cut off in IL was Dec 1st, and I was November baby). So I had to take driver’s ed the summer before my junior year with lots of kids 1 year behind me in school. I passed with flying colors, so I got a “blue slip” which meant I didn’t have to take the driving test to get my license. I got that darn piece of paper in July, but had to wait til my b-day in November to actually get my license!
I have never taked a test at the DMV, my license has always been renewed without needing to (knock on wood!)
Nice – never “taked” a test! yeah, I gots me a good edumactation! 😉
I never took drivers ed. and passed the test the first time.
i’m showing my age!!! My Dad taught me to drive clutch! and I passed on the first try! Examiner wanted me to make a u-turn and I told him “NO! not allowed.” He said just do it and lets see how you can do it….

I never took driver’s ed. For the written test 2 times, and the driver’s test passed the first time 🙂
I dropped out of driver’s ed. The screen freaked me out and the possibility of it ever being useful to me seemed nil. (We had never had a car when I was growing up.) There were several half-hearted attempts to teach me, but I didn’t pull it off til I was around 30, with many, many permits under my belt. I screwed up one test, then got another appointment the day before my permit expired, and managed to pull it off! — willaful
I’ve still not passed 🙁 I really need to start taking lessons and sit the test.
I passed the driving test the second time, in another state no less.
Passed both written and driving tests first time. My Dad taught me how to drive, my mom took me for the test.

Hello,
I passed both driver’s ed. and my driver’s test on the first go around. Although, my instructor thought I might not pass! I was able to prove him wrong. I do have fond memories of driving around in beat up cars with bad brakes, though.
I passed on my second try. My first time I was a teen and had very little practice.
first try at the age of 17 and I passed both 😉
Drivers ed was only offered the first semester of sophomore year. I was too young to take it.
I passed the drivers test on the first try.
Took me twice on my drivers test because we actually had a wreck going to the drivers testing center a moron pulled out right in front of my mom and she couldn’t miss it. Nope I wasn’t driving lol. But that did put me off of wanting to get my license for a while after that. True story unfortunately lol.
I’m actually trying to get my drivers license right now. I haven’t taken any tests yet.
It only took me one time to pass my drivers test. Am an elderly lady so there was wasn’t any prep courses available.

I passed the first time on everything although I was sure I had failed.
Passed both on my first try.
Passed both the test and class first time out
Never had to take driver’s ed. We moved to another state after I had my permit so it wasn’t required.
I passed my driver’s test on the first go around. It was pretty easy.

I didn’t have driver’s ed. I learned how to drive a standard driving around a field and down some little back roads. Passed my test first try.
i passed Driver’s ed when i was 16 but did not get my license until I was 19 and finished my first year in college. I passed the first time just did not have any money for insurance.
Never took driver’s ed but I didn’t get my license until I was 24. It took me two times to pass.
Got both on the first try. Small town, very little traffic, very easy test.
They didn’t have drivers ed when I was in school. I passed my written test and drivers test the first time but when I went to take the written test, I failed the eye test because their machine was out of focus and they admitted it but would not fix it and let me take it again. They said that I had to get a statement from my eye doctor.

I passed the first time on both. On the drivers test if I had missed like 2 more I would have had to retake it though.
Our driver’s ed class was 1/2 written, in-class instruction and 1/2 behind the wheel. I passed the first part with flying colors and never took the second half–our year was the first year they started charging and mom just couldn’t afford it.
Finally got my license (on the first try) at age 21–two weeks before I started at a new college.
I took drivers ed. in school only once.but never got my driver lic
Passed both on the first time.
Oooooo, what a great lineup of books. Count me in!!! Like I don’t have enough already.
I got Both on first try. but since i don’t have car now, i’m not driving at this moment 🙂
Never took drivers ed and it took me 3 times just to get my permit. I won’t say how many times it took to get my licence it’s embarrasing!
I passed the first time! tWarner419@aol.com
Whoever could provide the most romantic electrifying stories than you do. Basing on the recent comments about this post, people have really been anticipating for the giveaway. The books are going to be as thrilling as much. Looking forward to the results of the promo.
