Mother and driver's training

Dad taught me how to drive. I already knew and it was hard at times to act like I didn't know so he wouldn't be tipped off. I think I was successful in him thinking I was just a fast learner.

My mom taught me, standard shift. Thanks Mom!

My brother taught me.

My dad did.

Father

Private driving school.

The drivers ed class guy mostly, my stepdad and my dad. My mom freaked out the whole time.

My Pop (G.Father).

He made us all learn to drive backwards first. Once we could navigate through cones backwards & parallel park, then we drive forward.

We also had to take our test w/ a manual transmission vehichle.

Dad taught me.

My husband taught me

My grandparents (who raised and adopted me) and my husband (who was my boyfriend at the time).

Dad and older brother. My dad taught my daughter, also. He was a truck driver for 40 years, his expertise has been valuable. I drove with her a few times, but it freaked me out - the last thing she needed was a panicking mom.

No. My mom sat through my practicing phase, but I was taught by an amazing teacher in the Drivers Ed class they used to teach at the high school level. She has kept me out of trouble all these years, and is one of the best teachers I ever had.

My mom taught me how to drive. I also had the most practice driving with my mom.

My dad taught my how to drive a stick shift car though.

I couldn't wait to drive and I was a natural. Passed the tests with flying colors!

My dad put me behind the wheel on a two lane highway long before interstate.
Passing was a life lesson back then.

HS Driver's Ed class.

My mom taught me. She had to trick me into it though. I didn't want the responsibility!

I took drivers ed, but I also had to drive with my parents. I preferred to go with my dad. He just fell asleep and occasionally said left or right until we'd end up in San Pedro. My mom would shout at me to shoot gaps then scream "we're gonna die!"

A drivers education instructor in high school. It was part of the curriculum in the "old" days.
