I Hate Driving

The Sevenshot Kid · 08-29-2010, 10:00 AM

I'm a teenager that has just gotten his permit and I was pretty excited to be getting behind the wheel of a car at first. Then it happened and... Well, I hated every single moment of it. It might be because I'm inexperienced or something but I just do not enjoy it at all. If I could, I'd never drive again in my life but that's not something I can afford to do in this day's world.

Any ways to help the driving experience?

Take the bus. Problem solved! End thread.

I used to hate driving. It took me a while after getting my license to not hate it. I still don't enjoy it, I don't really see what the big deal with having some chunk of metal under your ass to get you where you want to go is.

Something that'll help your driving experience? I dunno, music perhaps? But I assume you already tried that, haven't you? At least it can distract you from the worst of it. You could also get some busty blondes to sit beside you and compliment your physique or something.

I'm not into busty blondes myself, though. So maybe you aren't either. You prefer brunettes? Redheads? Men?
Petite build? Large?

All up to you, man.

Driving is obnoxious.

But then you get used to it and it's still obnoxious.

But then your car breaks down and you start having to rely on friends and public transportation to get you places, and suddenly you really really wish you could drive again.

And then you get your car fixed and driving is pretty great.

And then driving is obnoxious again.

I liked driving for the pure fact that it combines being alone with being in charge of where the fuck I want to go.

As long as the car isn't a piece of shit that you don't want to be seen in then there shouldn't be much problem. (My area has very few accidents and a driver's ed program that's successful despite budget cuts.) And I don't live in a big enough city to hate traffic and therefore hate any driving whatsoever.

It's a bit of a POS.

This.

It gets even more obnoxious if you don't know any other drivers and you wind up playing taxi.

Busses for half-hour trip.
Trains for trips that take longer (or trips that are just more convenient via train. Sadly pricier, though...)
Neither train nor bus running there and it's close enough? Well, hello mister Bicycle! How do you, this fine day? Let's go for a ride, shall we?

No car needed, and I'm a happy guy for it. =3

I mainly hate busses and trains because they make me get up earlier, and I really can't stand being robbed of my precious sleep. Driving myself is just the lesser of two evils, really.

I love driving.
This is my cat
