How Long Did It Take You To Learn How To Drive? (Picture) by jeromestarks(op): 1:06pm On Jul 02, 2023
My sister spent 3 weeks. After that, she used learner's tag (L) for another one week.

Now, she says she can drive anything anywhere anyhow 😁.

How long did it take you?

A neighbor bro thought me when I bought my Honda baby boy, but I used the car bashed tire. I had mini accident with it as a learner. But thank God for today, now I fit drive from Maiduguiri to Lagos from Onisha to Ajah with my driving license.

Everything was just within a month. Funny enough, nobody taught me driving. I was just a smart observer. I bought my first car without proper mastery of driving but you know what, my clutch really suffered, changed it virtually every 3 days because I can be on just a gear and drive round the town πŸ˜† until I become so perfect.

Just by observing the way my dad drove for years. I just summoned courage one day while my dad was away, I took the car keys and the rest they say was history.

It's been 13 years now, was still in sec school then self

No one taught me.. had a very big compound, so I broke into my dad's room to steal the keys on weekends to drive in thr compound then sweep the tire marks.. entered express after a week or 2..
The day pops saw me drive, it wasn't his car. He didn't say a word cos he also wasn't taught how to drive.. I'm sure he was proud

A week… driving depends on boldness, confidence and determination then you’ve to be very careful.

I think it’s easier to learn when it’s your car tho

It’s easier when you have a car always available.

It depends, automatic transmission is easier while manual transmission may take some time to understand.

The basics-a couple of days.

To move confidently in traffic- a couple of weeks.

To drive perfectly -a couple of months.



NB: Stick.

Never had the confidence to even start a car until I got mine. From that minute I started driving gradually and within 3 days I became an expert.
