    Looking too young to drive
    Has anyone else ever been stopped by the police because they look too young to drive or have people been surprised when you get into the driving seat because they think you look too young

    They shouldnt really do, byt then again I remember reading an article about a woman who got pulled over 3 times in a short period of time, and she seems to think it was because she was blonde and a woman and was saying they were discriminating against her :rolleyes:

    '..........you WHAT?! oh, for goodness sake, i am 22 and a half years old!'

    and yes, the 'and a half' bit made me laugh, even though we were in the presence of the law. ehe :'D

    Never happened to me, although there have been a few times when I've walked up to my car/to the counter in the petrol station and felt ridiculously young. Not so much anymore. Cuz...I'm olddd.

    i think i remember doing this in my youth too ;D

    my boyfriend was saying it jokingly to the 2 policewomen though, as opposed to being particularly serious/'WAAAAH WHY YOU PO-LEECE ALWAYS PICKIN ON ME' in his response.

    ...the policewomen asked him how he maintained his skin before let him go. muahaha

    Nope, never, people usually think im older than i am. Just makes sure you carry ID on you all the time so if you are stopped there's no problem
