Yes I can, I didn't start driving till I was 24 though, I never really needed to drive as I lived in the city up until soon after I started driving.

[lostalex]

I'm an awesome driver. I've driven across the entire US coast to coast 6 times. 1 of those times was in a giant U-Haul truck.

True enough

Life in the fast lane.

Road trips are fun, but you gotta make sure you pick yur fellow roadtrippers carefully. It can be a ton of fun if you have someone fun with you, or it can be an ABSOLUTE NIGHTMARE if you bring the wrong person. I speak from personal experience.

My best road trip experience was with my brother. He can make the best of any situation. My absolute worst experience was with my best friend, she was a complaining whiney BIOTCH the entire time, i don't know how we survived it, at one point i really believed that only one of us could survive it, cause one of us was gonna snap at any point. I love her, but she was a fooking nightmare. We definitely proved that we need SPACE in our relationship lol.

you know what's funny about that though? is actually the people in the remote places are the most friendly and most helpful, i got way more scared when i was going through the cities then i was in the remote areas. Cause usually the highways go through the nastier more ghetto areas of cities.

At first we tried to stay in hotels in cities, but soon realized that the ghetto crackheads were way scarier than the rednecks!

I was really paranoid about rednecks and hillbillies in the sticks on my first trip, but actually the rural people are INCREDIBLY friendly, and way better than the urban places you go through.
