      Jennifer:

      When I first got my driving licence and drove to Rail Mall, the front seat passenger could not stop nagging :gloomy: I parked the car head in into the parking lot. Since then I did not drive again.


      Hubby could not trust anyone.

      I also enjoy being chauffeured around, whether it is hubby or the public transport.

      1) It is his car (his baby)
      2) He is sitting on the front passenger seat.

      Trust me, change either of these 2 parameters and you will have a much nicer experience driving in peace.

      nah, I not interested in driving anyway

      My elder boy is 16 yo this year. Hubby already asking me to check when can sit for the basic theory test.

        My dad used to be the intimidating one for me - but I guess that's cos he was the one who sat with me when I first knew how to drive. If DH had been the one, maybe I'll also self-terminate my licence šŸ˜‚

          I recalled a nice theory on reading this......

          If you see a man opening the door for the woman..

          Either the car is new, or the woman is.. :evil:

          sorry OT..

                When in my 20s, yes I drove fast. Especially on highways. 120-130km/hr at that time was possible, during off peak hours. And yes, I was driving a rather powerful car. Not a sports car but still one that had a pretty fast pick-up at a tap of the accelerator. I have used the horn and flashed the headlights at fellow road users in my impatience then.


                In my 30s, I slowed down but still going at about 100km/hr on highways whenever possible. Yes still driving a car with fast pick-up. Hardly honked at anyone though did flash the headlights some.

                Now in my 40s, I hardly go beyond 100km/hr. I am happy to plod along behind whatever car in front following whatever speed they are going at. Been driving my current car for coming 4yrs. I have never flashed the headlights at anyone and cannot remember when I last honked at anyone. Wonder if they still work.

                  Don't really get it... I can understand about the \"woman is new\" part, but why would a man open a door for the woman if the car is new??

                    New car = precious

                    later the woman dent, scratch or bang the car door hor? :rotflmao:

                    When hubby got a new car, we are not supposed to close the door or the car boot too hard. He says \" this is a car hor, not a truck leh. u no need to use so much force, ok!\"

                      Once I opened the car door too aggressively, the door hit the pole. It was a new car.

                        Hubby said he wants to buy a sports car, lamxxxxx (sp?) when he retires. I laughed at him n said \"dun want lah, later other drivers laugh at you : see that old man? still drive a sports car? can chiong or not?\" :rotflmao:
