Grinding

Today, my boyfriend got pulled over and arrested for driving with a suspended license. Instead of getting my car impounded, his friend thought he'd do me a favor and drive it back to me. He doesn't know how to drive stick and blew my engine. My boyfriend is in jail and I no longer have a car. FML

Looks like someone needs a new car AND a new boyfriend.

Why did you let him drive your car without a license?

In her defense my license got suspended back in 03 but I didn't find out until 08 when I lost my wallet and went to apply for a new license. I had renewed and applied for a licence in 2 different states...no red flags till that day. The DMV is screwed up 

I am currently without a car and my boyfriends HAS been in jail before so yeah... I feel your pain hun! Its no f-ing fun at all!

YDI for not dumping your convict boyfriend

YDI for letting your boyfriend drive YOUR car with a SUSPENDED license. Why would you let him even drive your car without you? That's so irresponsible.

FYI, Eliz, the OP is in AMERICA not ENGLAND so give it a rest already about how stupid the driving rule is. You expressed your opinion once, okay good for you. But there is absolutely no need for you to keep on repeating it. Just because something is different doesn't make it stupid, so just shut up already. Please and thank you.

boyfriend = loser, his friend = loser. Time to hang out with some better people.

and ydi for letting your gf drive with a suspended license

my mom always tells me they need to teach people how to drive with stick engine cars before they learn how to use the automatic ones,i guess she was right

1. You're an idiot for letting your boyfriend drive your car. The impound laws are specifically designed to take cars away from people like you. 2. You're a moron for thinking that not knowing how to drive a car with a manual transmission can somehow cause a person to "blow the engine". If you can't drive a stick, the worst you could do is stall the car a lot. The only way to destroy a modern engine is to run it without oil, which has nothing to do with the person driving it back to you.

anyone else think the world wouldn't have so much problems if all cars were stick? think about it, a lot of people wouldn't drive stick because it takes more effort. there'd be less people on the streets, less emissions, gas prices would be lower, people would be better drivers. haha i love manual transmission, my GLI is the best. anyways, OP YDI, for letting your boyfriend drive without a license, and for letting a friend drive your car without knowing stickshift
