I had to take driving lessons in New York, which were really weird because it's not the safest thing in the world.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Learning how to drive was a scary thing.
The very first time I got to drive by myself, I took a bunch of my friends to school and was caught by a motorcycle cop going 90 miles an hour on a back street.
I had to learn how to drive because I didn't drive in Toronto.
I had professional stunt racers teaching me how to drive.
I never had a chance to learn how to drive.
I regret not learning to drive when I was younger.
How weird it was to drive streets I knew so well. What a different perspective.
I didn't learn to drive until I was 65 and my husband was seriously ill.
I really didn't even have time to get that many lessons, to be honest, because I was suddenly on the road. I was kind of thrown in the deep end. But that wasn't a bad thing when I look back at it.
New York is the first place I have ever felt safe.
