I had a minor car crash today. I dont think the damage is too serious but I only passed my test a couple of weeks ago and havent even got my proper license back yet. Has anyone else crashed so soon after passing their test? I feel like never driving again

Yep I wrote off my car ten days after I passed my test back in May. Now I won't drive until I'm twenty one and even then insurance will be sky high. No one has a more woeful driving tale than I!

About 6 months after I passed my test
Got reversed on to by a Mitsubishi Trojan. My poor little Corsa had all the front smashed in and had to claim for the repairs

I had an incident last weekend, and I've not driven long. Was in the right hand lane of a duel carrigeway, wanting to get back into the left lane, so I checked my mirrors and then blind spot, saw the car already in the left hand lane and decided I needed to be a bit further ahead before moving over, but this car then started to undertake me and I was so shocked that I didn't look ahead again quick enough and started scraping the curb near the central reservation. It was a 50mph zone, but still, if I hadn't have turned back round any sooner, my car could have taken off by hitting the curb fully.
My colleague, whilst talking about this, told me she wrote her mum's car off within a week of passing her test. She pulled out of a junction onto a road and a car hit her - but was let off because it was proven that the car that smashed into her was going way too fast.
The road is full of too many reckless people.

The day I got my car I was off driving into the night straight away....with no head lights on...but I'm never off the road. Had a few near misses but the experience is building up.

i was only wearing footie shorts and t shirt so i did feel like a bit of a kid stood at the side of the road talking to this guy in his suit.
Any other people have the problem of looking too young to drive?
