Today, I allowed my friend to practice driving in my car. As she began to let the car roll forward, she looked at me and very seriously asked, "Brakes is the right pedal, right?" FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I was taking my driving test and everything was going perfectly. As I pulled back into the testing center, I smiled because I knew I'd passed. Then I got out of the car without pulling the handbrake. The examiner had to jump back in and hit the brakes before it rolled into an actual parked car. 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 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 got my first driving lesson from my dad. We traded seats, I started the car and his entire lesson was, "Go." FML
Today, I went driving for the first time with my mom. When she wasn't screaming, she gave great advice like, "Stop at the red light" and "Don't crash into cars". I need to drive 50 hours with her. FML
Today, an old lady rear ended my car the light. Her explanation was, "It's a new car, and when I take my foot off the break, it just rolls forward all on its own! I don't know what's wrong with it!" FML
Today, I took my driving test. I spent 30 minutes with the handbrake on. FML
Today, my mother said she trusted me enough to go with me for my first drive in my new car. As soon as we got in the car, she started hyperventilating and screaming we're going to crash. I didn't even start the engine. FML
Today, while arguing with my boyfriend about how I wasn't a bad driver and could parallel park, I thought it would be easier to just let him do it. Unfortunately, while getting out of the car to switch seats, I forgot to take the car out of drive and it ran into the car in front of us. He was right. FML
Today, a learner driver was practicing maneuvers in the parking lot at work. This happens a lot, and my colleagues and I usually have fun watching and laughing. It was all fun and games as usual, until the learner crashed into my car. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

She's learning to drive, of course she doesn't know yet. Sounds like she could use a less condescending friend!

I don't know which pedal * is the brake..

I really don't understand how this is a "FML" situation. If the car was wrecked, I'd see the need. Otherwise, you just have some pretty simple minded friends. Their simple mind has no effect on the outcome of your family, career choices, etc. This wasn't even funny.

Learn what sarcasm is. I don't see the sarcasm. Maybe it was a jooooke. Maybe it was situational irony if you're a girl(can't tell from my ipod). But that was not sarcasm. Go have the guy that taught Peter Griffin about it teach you.

Gotta say i've seen equal amounts of bad driving from both sexes. All I know is, if you're a male my age, your insurance will be higher than mine because of your gender. I highly doubt that my insurance is lower because I'm more likely to be a bad driver.

I bet she was an Asian too!

Actually the reason females insurance is lower than males is because males are more likely to drive at high speeds therefore causing more damage when they actually crash, they usually crash because they overestimate their skills and then lose control while females are more likely to just do something stupid and crash, but usually at a lower speed so it doesn't cause as much damage, if any at all depending on what kind of stupid thing it was. I've nearly been hit by many females...there have been a couple of males as well but the majority are females. Thats not saying my driving is perfect or anything. Besides its easier to avoid a female doing something stupid than a guy driving way over the speed limit...yes?

i agree. women shouldn't need their drivers license :) we don't need them because there isn't a highway from the bedroom to the kitchen :)

I've seen equal amounts gender-wise, really. BUT Asians and old people have given me horrible experiences. I've only been in one accident, though, and it was a middle-aged semi driver not looking before merging. Both genders are equally bad, but we, men, create the stereotypes so women lose. I actually know girls who got a perfect score in their driving tests, but plenty of guys who took it more than once.

gosh... women..

Men typically drive almost twice the miles women do per year as well. That contributes to the inequality of insurance rates.

And.... a male driving way over the speed limit is not "something stupid"? Not all women are bad drivers who do stupid things, and not all men are good drivers who just drive too fast. Womens' insurance is lower because they take less risks. They crash less. Men take more risks, and crash more, therefor making their insurance higher. Really, who's the worse driver? There is a reason insurance companies make men pay more.

Calm down.

then get yourself some implants ..

Clearly I meant on girls.. but they can't be too big, and they gotta have little nipples. No sausage! BTW the only reason I made this comment is so all the people that were extremely dissapointed by this FML they could come into the comments and find something to get a little laugh out of.

Your insurance rates are lower than ours.

Actually men do..my brother works for an insurance company, they are more likely to speed and drive drunk as well.

My comment had nothing to do with the girl in the FML..
KiwiExchange 16
I never said it was you.
dwold91 3
Alright. I just thought it was ironic that this comment came right after mine, I just said that to be funny cause this comment epically failed at that. Sorry.
Schizomaniac 24
Where is the irony in that.
dwold91 3
I commented "I like big boobs!!!" and she says this like 3 comments later.. How is that not ironic? I think my first comment got deleted tho.. That may be why you didn't understand.
Schizomaniac 24
There is nothing that I didn't understand. There is no irony in that situation.

Thank you, moderator. Now everything I said makes absolutely no sense.
