Mine: I still vividly remember that day...I went to a friend's house to visit when I discovered that his popsy just bought a Nissan Primera. I didn't know how to drive and neither did my friend. Secretly, I have been dreaming of the day I would drive a car cheesy. When he asked me if I could drive, I told him I could. He asked me to teach him and I gladly agreed, since his dad wasn't at home. To me, my dreams of driving a car had come true!!! grin. Person wey wan teach anoda person how to drive nor even sabi drive grincheesy. Na so we start. After about 10 mins, two teenage boys were seen in a crashed car that hit a fence with the front of the car totally damaged! Radiator burst...fan break...headlights scatter...wheels nor gree roll again...grin. My friend had to lie to his parents that he was the one that damaged the car. I really felt sorry for him because that night was like a Mortal Kombat brutality in their house grin. After that unfortunate incidence, I swore I would never crash a car again and so it has been! I have been driving for 14 years now and such has not occured again!!! #NaGodWin#

The first time I took a car into the streets after much practice in the compound I was driving in a zigzag pattern and other cars were flashing ligths and jumping outta the way for me. I even remember one guy who jumped across the gutter by the road to save himself.
It was my mums 504 and I was 13 then.
Nice experience.

After inside our compound self-training sessions with my father's VW Passat, I decided it was time to hit the streets just to show my friends I'm the newest big boy in town. On getting just outside the gate after about 3 non successful trials, saw my older brother running like Usain Bolt towards the car shouting "icho egbu nmadu" meaning "you wan kill person". He dragged me out of the car not without a heavy slap though. That was how he saved the day for me. Nobody knows what would have happened.

I think the incident helped me to gather morale to perfect my driving skills secretly.

Aye

I got inside my dad's Peugeot 504 station wagon, took it for a spin, before then i only drive around the neighbourhood.

I was on top speed and started overtaking "Mercedes Benz" and "Toyota's" on the road.
For my little jjc driver mind, i was like, how can my dead bit Peugeot run faster than "classy" Benz and toyota?
Something must be wrong. Its not possible"!
grin grin grin

So I decided to press the break... allow them to overtake me and then I will follow them. (For my mind dem senior me for road).

I sharply applied the break and the next thing I was hit from behind by the Toyota and off I went into the bush.

I cried like a Christmas fowl that day cos my dad will skin me alive knowing I took his beloved 504 out not to talk of bashing it.

Luckily the Peugeot wasn't affected by the bump. The toyota on the other hand was a bit distorted.

I learnt hard that day, the speed of a car is not necessarily determined by the make or the outward appearance...the driver and the engine are the "devils" that control how fast a car goes....that was my first and only "bash" story so far.

I 'graduated' myself early from driving to prove to my ex girlfriend that I can drive. I took her out, I ended up hitting a mosque. Thank God she's a Muslim.









The event happened when we were driving back from the British handing-over ceremony to Nigeria in 1960 grin

Hmmm. I've not driven except from where the car was parked to the gate and back. grin
The first time my eldest brother tried to drive, he bashed a small portion of the wall and the front of the car, then he quietly parked the car. We were all good children that night, so my mum won't notice embarassed. Of course, she observed we were too quiet and discovered what happened....... lipsrsealed

When my other brother totally bashed the fence my mum just gave up and sent them to go and learn driving properly. cheesy
