    I drove today!

    It was pretty exciting! I just can't reverse and get out of a parking spot too well yet. Any pointers?

    It takes time. Just practice and you'll get use to it. Go slowly till you're comfortable, and check your mirrors so you know you're not too close to the other cars.

    I've been driving for years now, and I've just recently been able to park our half ton truck comfortably. It's hard to get that thing into small spaces

    Lol yeah it will take some time.

    I was backing out of this parking space, and I was actually doing just fine, but I forgot to shift it back to drive, so I hit the gas pedal and we flew backwards... Lmao, it was really funny but I never did THAT again!

    I drove home too. That was really exciting!

    *smiles* sounds like something I might do by mistake once I start driving.

    Just to tell you, I got in the front seat and drove REALLY REALLY slow because I was really scared. I thought it was going to be really hard or something, but it wasn't. It's actually really fun, I'm going to drive when we take my brother to his friends I think. The only thing hard about it is REVERSING! Lmao... It wasn't too bad!

    Learn to work with your mirrors. Once you've mastered that, parking will be a piece of cake!!
    Good luck!!
