My sister spent 3 weeks. After that, she used learner's tag (L) for another one week.

Now, she says she can drive anything anywhere anyhow 😁.

No one taught me.. had a very big compound, so I broke into my dad's room to steal the keys on weekends to drive in thr compound then sweep the tire marks.. entered express after a week or 2..
The day pops saw me drive, it wasn't his car. He didn't say a word cos he also wasn't taught how to drive.. I'm sure he was proud


If my younger once are reading, they'll think I'm the one that posted this angry you see that sweeping part ehn, na me be that.
My pops say I must turn 18 b4 I start driving and I have to start from smaller cars...lmao.
Na that him same SUV I use learn then in SS1.
The day he saw me driving our neighbor's car, he almost scream, as if to tell the neighbor I don't know how to drive....lolss me wey don the drive near two years. I'm sure he didn't pay attention to his fuel guage.

I sha know I started driving since ss2. I started by packing the car outside the gate for my dad after washing it every morning. I remember the first day he heard me start the car, I'm pretty sure he left what he was doing and ran outside because before the car started moving, I saw him standing and watching 😁

Took me approximately 3 days. Thing about driving is courage, determination and responsibility. Once you understand those 3 things, the rest is a piece of cake.

Never had the confidence to even start a car until I got mine. From that minute I started driving gradually and within 3 days I became an expert.

You should ask your sister to please tell you the truth about the drama that took place between her and her husband in the bedroom after you broke the side mirror.

Some people said it’s a waste of time learning how to drive if you don’t have a car yet or intending to have one anytime soon ?
