Congrats! In Canada, you have 3 levels to get it.

First, G1. I got it at 23. You can’t drive alone but be with an experienced driver
Second, G2. I got it at 24. You can now drive alone but has to have an experienced driver when you enter the highways.
Last, G. I got it at 29. You can now drive anywhere alone.

Congrats! I had my first accident (literally a fender-bender on a parked car, plus a massive scratch down my dad's car) a week later. Drive carefully!

(I parked up and accpeted the consequences. The next one wasn't until 25 years later, and many years ago.)

I was 18.

Jamesshinobi · Answer

25 or 26. i lived on the edge of a city in a major metropolitan area. we could easily take public transportation to anywhere in a 300 to 900 mile radius and parking was a bitch everywhere. owning a car was to expensive and too much of a hassle until i was 26ish.

Heh heh

My vehicle driver's license was handed to me on my 18th birthday.

I'll soon -perhaps- go for another one, as my silly hosting country insists that I have a ''local'' one.

18 years old. failed twice but got it eventually. I was too anxious... and I did make mistakes but I learnt now

msc545 · Answer

I was 16, and technically, a person can still get a license at 16 in California, but there are all sorts of requirements before they issue it, and all sorts of restrictions after you get it. I would be curious to know if any of this has reduced the accident rate.
