When you learned to drive, were you really ready?

Posted in , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

Deep down we all do things for a reason. Even as kids we did what we wanted, but when asked by our parents why we did what we did, we often replied “I don’t know”. Perhaps we were embarrassed with our personal reason for our actions, or perhaps we knew the person asking the question…
