We do not really had a place to park a car and we never really needed one, plus it's to expensive, so I had never learned how to drive.
But I think it is a very useful skill to have, so I am planning to this year. But since we do not have a car, will you forget how to drive if you don't practice it much? How was your experience as a first time driver?

I have only driven a few times a few years back, I think I may have forgotten now too.

I passed the first time around at sixteen years old, but if I hadn’t had a chance to drive after getting my license I’m not sure if I would have forgotten. I’m pretty sure I’d remember how to drive, but not stuff on the written test, like how many feet in front of a railroad track do you stop when the light indicates a train is coming? I wouldn’t have remembered that.

Learning to drive is a useful skill. You could forget, that's a personal thing. Just stay up-to-date on the rules of the road, if you don't plan to drive frequently.

I learned how to drive at the age of 10. It was something that I really enjoyed doing. When I became an adult I became too lazy to drive.
My parents didn't know that our driver was teaching me how to drive back then. I was a really curious kid and I asked too many questions. And since I was a tall one at the age of 10, it was ok for me to drive. But I never drove alone without a professional driver next to me. My father found out I was driving when a police officer told him about it.
Did my parents get angry? No. My father knew me well enough to know there was no way of stopping me from doing what I want. AS long as I wasn't driving alone. I never had any accidents.
