Did you ever want to drive your own car? That it got to the point of breaking the rules just to reach that dream?

As for me, yes I will. As a teen, I really wanted to drive my own car to school. I dreamt about it a lot of times. OK, honestly, I fancied driving my father's car - it is a white sports car. It's motor is light and I can easily drive that. I definitely think it is cool and many students will love it and fancy it the way I do.

But I had a problem with driving. I do not know how to drive. That's the biggest problem I may be facing. I wish I can be as good a driver as my father. But I cannot ask for help from him since I was only a teen girl and they do not want me to drive. Instead, I should just focus on my studies. That's according to my parents. Very eager to learn driving, I persisted driving in a driving school one day. I inquired alone about the driving lessons cost. It was not too bad. Actually, it was cheap, and I know I can afford it by merely using my allowance. So I decided to practice driving. Since I am a girl, I was very nervous at first. I do not know much about controlling the stirring wheel and motor. We almost had a car crash. I would say that it was almost a traumatic incident. It's a good thing we only bumped into a tree along the side way and not totally a crash. What came first into my mind is I might be asked by my driving instructor to pay for the damages in his car. It's a good thing his car is insured in insurance group and it did not crash. So I was saved. Thanks also to the insurance group. Second thing that crossed my mind then is my life. I might have died because of what happened. I stopped the motor of the car and I let the driving instructor to drive his car home. I was frightened so much about what happened. It almost took away our lives. I thanked God after, that I was still alive.

The most important learning I can get from that experience is to wait for the right time. I know that there will really be that time that I will be able to drive my own car. And it should be with the permission of my parents. Plus, if you drive, have it insured in an insurance group!!! :)
