    Red face Driving situation. from the underage..!!

    Okay, so when I was 13, i felt a litlle rebellious and took my dad's car since he was on a trip to Thailand, and I was bored out of my mind. I took the car to a pretty busy street, but then i turned into a more quiet one where hardly any cars would go. I was about to turn left on the green light, and i really didnt notice a car that was going to go straight so i almost hit it. Lucky for me, i didnt, but a cop guy was there to uh, do his job.

    I ended up gettin a ticket for driving underage, and almost gettin' into an accident. [oopsies..]
    yeah i know, what the heck was I thinking??
    anyway, im very aware that i cant drive til i'm 18, so i have two questions for you guys!!

    My first one is, can I still get a permit? Or do i still have to wait til I'm 18?
    My second one is, can I get a motorcycle liscense or do the rules still apply until im 18??

    I'd reallly appreciate it if i could get an answer... because I'm still clueless!! :confused:

    There is NO doubt about that! :D

    Now, I am not one to answer this, as I do not know traffic laws at all. However, there are many here who CAN help you, provided you give a little information... the must fundamental of which is WHERE ARE YOU? It very well may vary from state to state.

    It depends on where you live. Different states different laws.

    I don't know about the permit but the motorcycle license is going to have to wait. By the way why do you have to wait until 18? I though most places allow a license at 16. :confused: Or do you have to wait because the underage driving ticket?

    By the way taking Dad's car out for a joy ride at 13 was really stupid!!!!
    Wrong door, buddy
