Can you drive?

I've been driving for a few years now and thanks to my wonderful lifestyle (not), I can drive on anything from that messed up Interstate you get in cities, to tiny, one-lane dirt roads. Drove all over D.C. a few weeks ago; kept getting lost but did avoid tickets and accidcents.
I was involved in a pretty bad accident about two years ago, but it wasn't my fault, even according to the police report. If I hadn't been 18 and the other driver hadn't been in her 30s, she'd have been declared the one at fault. I was pulling into a turn lane and she was making a left turn out of a parking lot during rush hour. I'm driving this tiny little station wagon my parents had bought for me two weeks before and suddenly, there's this huge white care coming straight at me. Next thing I know, the windshield is a spider-web of cracks. Then everything just sort of rushed in at once. My baby brother (he was in middle school at the time) was in the seat next to me and ready to have a breakdown. I'm trying to calm him down with the other driver got out and started yelling at me that it was all my fault. As soon as I felt I could leave Ad for a few seconds, I called my parents and had them come out and get me. And then there was a debate over wether to take me to the hospital or not because I had a huge bruise on my head and my parents were afriad I'd gotten another concussion. Not a fun experience.
That time, I was not at fault at all, but that didn't stop me from thinking I was generally a bad driver. Then, some of my other friends started driving. There are some friends I refuse to let drive me anywhere simply because I want to live.

yes i can...but with parental vision..
i can't drive alone because i only have a permit..
but good news is...im getting license next month =))
I'd like to believe I can drive, but I simply can't say I "do" drive or at least legally w/o supervision...
Before I moved to the OC I been driving for 2 years and had gotten my license 6 months before I moved.
But here in Cali, they gave me a damn permit again and now I have to re-learn all the laws and what-not again, so I can pass my road test again...
So for now I need supervision when I'm driving...

You sure that permit even counts anymore? I heard you must take the test again after a certain amount of time.
And I have driven since I was fourteen. Older friends FTW.

I "do" drive, but I never drive alone (I don't have a car XD) And since all cars I've ever driven belongs to somebody else, I've never involved in an accident (it's not funny to have an accident while driving someone else's car with the owner sitting on the passenger's side)
But at least my friend praised my parking skill 😀

I already said I'm not interested :\ I don't particularly have the need to do so, anyways.
...though mom has been bugging me about it >_>
