Remember back when you turned sixteen?

Wow, I bet you couldn't wait to get your hands on that much-needed Drivers License. Don't even try to deny it. We all wanted that little card so badly we could hardly stand it. If you are a male, I know you were dying to acquire that legal piece of plastic that said you could finally drive on your own. Yes indeed, the classic Drivers License is the epitome of freedom when you're young. So many of us actually believe that we can venture out to any place, near or far, once we've earned the almighty drivers license. Ha, what a joke that turns out to be. Not to sell the access card short, but it only goes so far. Regardless, it's great to finally get your drivers license and have the ability to go some places without the folks.

When did you get your Drivers License? I had to get mine right when I turned 16. Where I came from, we could get our learners permits when we turned 14, therefore I had already driven quite a bit. Finally the license was attainable. What I find funny now days is the change in mentality. I look at our 17 year old daughter and wince with confusion. She didn't even care about getting her Drivers License right when she turned 16. What's up with that? Have things changed so much in the last couple decades? She basically told us that she would go get it eventually, and she wasn't in any hurry. Although we were clearly puzzled, we decided not to push it. Six months later she tested and received her first drivers license.

Have you gotten your Drivers License? What always gets me is how you have to change it when you move. Ah, can't I just keep the same one? We seem to move quite regularly, and I dread always having to go back to the DMV or BMV as they call it here, and test for a new drivers license. But what can you do? We all need a drivers license to do our daily routines. If you have not yet received your first drivers license, you can always get a head start by hopping online. Fortunately these days it's all at your fingertips. You can prepare for that much-anticipated license to freedom before you even reach the age of 16.
