Today, I took my road test. I'd never had driver's training and my mom taught me how to drive. I failed the test so badly, and when I got home my mom admitted to having taught me how to drive completely wrong because she didn't want me to get my license as she thinks I'm too young. I'm 18. FML

Thanksgiving
Questions about your love life, a burnt turkey and the cousin who knows everything: Thanksgiving, a contact sport.
Today, I failed to get my driver's licence. My father was the instructor. FML
Today, I took my driving test. I had pulled out of my three point turn in a neighborhood and started driving again, thinking something wasn't quite right. The lady testing me looked over at me and said, "Sweetie, you're driving on the wrong side of the road." FML
Today, I passed my driver's test. My instructor took the learner signs off his car and let me drive back to my place. I guess he didn't bet on me crashing the car just a few blocks from the test center. FML
Today, I took my driving test. I was nervous, but I thought I followed the rules of the road pretty well. My tester ended up failing me for "backing out too slowly". FML
Today, I went to take my driver's test, and I did almost everything perfectly. The last thing was to back into a driveway. As I went to put my hand on the passenger seat to look over my shoulder, I got so nervous that I hit my instructor in the face. FML
Today, after failing my learner's licence twice in the previous weeks, I finally passed. As I got home, I went for a drive with my dad. I smashed my mum's car into an old lady's fence and ended up in her backyard. FML
Today, I took my driving test. It was all going well until out of habit from driving with my boyfriend, I reached over and held my instructor's hand. FML
Today, I took my driver's test. The woman administering it wouldn't even look at me, so trying to be friendly I said the first thing I could think of, "It must be scary getting in the car with someone you don't know!" She failed me for "excessive chatting." FML
Today, I failed my driving test. I've been a legal driver in my home country for 8 years, but can't pass the test here. FML
Today, I drove 45 minutes to take my full driver's test. At the end of the test, the instructor told me I'd done everything perfectly, but had failed before I left the parking lot. I didn't see the "one way" sign at the entrance. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Seeing as you can get your license at 16, I think she has a right to want it by 18 you jerk, just because you're old and unable to drive, by the sounds of your bitching, doesn't mean the OP has to wait

Maybe she needs/has a job to pay for college or whatever but she has no way of getting there because she can't drive? There are many circumstances that a person would need a license at a young age, you can't assume things like an ignorant moron.

Why do you use "text" speak when you have a full keyboard available? I'm getting a headache trying to read this. Even when I used an ordinary nine button keypad to type text messages, I could still easily use real words.

Neither of my parents thought it was important to take me out driving after I passed drivers ed and I needed it a lot still do. Now I'm 23, unemployed with a permit but I'm stuck in Michigan again where I have no friends and my parents still both refuse to take me out driving. FML

I voted YDI only because learning solely from your parents isn't the best strategy even if they're not trying to sabotage you. While some people benefit from years of experience driving and actually become good drivers, the vast majority become lazy, take shortcuts, forget proper courtesy, and become awful drivers out of complacency. They'll probably pass all their bad driving habits on to you. The driving test looks at your ability to memorize details of what the DMV considers proper driving technique, so a professional instructor is your best choice. Aside from that, FYL for having a parent who can't cut the umbilical cord.

I got my license without taking drivers training as well, luckily my mom taught me how to drive correctly. Well then again maybe not, I'm a horrible driver, but I atleast passed the test. I just could never ever pass it if I moved out of state. :(

Maybe she thought you were like that person who freaked out when she got pulled over by the police

I dont know about you, but driving is pure common sense to me. I never took a class never was taught anything and walked right in and passed. Not hard at all dude
