Not too sure what the England one, but I believe it's a Theory exam and a practical exam.
i don't even like dt but i had keyboard and an ipad so what the fuck
Jordan is actually DT's tax advisor. He just happens to do their taxes on stage, that's why he has that iPad there.

So it's not incredibly different from the US one. That's interesting. I cannot for the life of me find a price on how much I had to pay for my license, but I also went to a driving school and that definitely was at least a couple hundred dollars.

Yep, I'll be happy if I get my driver's license with lessons included for 1500 euros. We have to take a theory exam and a practical exam, and the practical exams are actually pretty hard/strict.

I admit it. It was far easier to get my driver's licence in real life than it was in GTA San Amdreas! :biggrin:

Same for me, though I probably drive better in real life than in GTA San Andreas  :lol

Almost certain it's easier to get a real pilot license that the GTA San Andreas one.

Yeah, the theory one expires after about two years too, and it includes a clicky-clicky hazard perception bit, there's also a five minute "free driving" section in the practical, where you follow signs to somewhere, and then there's reversing manouvers too.

Yeah pretty much. Luckily, they've reduced the number of reversing things since my previous attempts.

Do you guys have like a learner's permit before you get your license?

Provisional Drivers licenses, which only lets you drive cars with someone else in it.

Ah okay. That's pretty much a learner's permit. Any restrictions on how many people or what times you can/cannot drive?

No idea. There seem to be more hill starts, but then again, that's just because I live in Bristol, and that place is like a small mountain range.

Hill starts must suck absolutely. Can't even use gravity to let you go down to the bottom.

Hah, I generally tend to do two in the first five minutes of each lesson. After 8 months, I'm finally managing those two fairly reliably.

Fuck you Park Street.

Had my debit card info stolen, had to spend an hour and a half with the bank trying to sort it out. :|

Other than that though I'm good. xD

Actually I have no clue. My bank put a hold on my account after a purchase went through from Quebec. Why they didn't reject the purchase since I hadn't informed them about traveling out of the country and I live in New Jersey I have no idea. But yeah. :\

Yeah, that seems pretty sketchy to me. :neverusethis:  I wish I could just use cash everywhere, but it's not really feasible, unfortunately.

It's good that you got it sorted out before they'd done too much with it, though.

Yep. I have to wait for the charges to go through before I can dispute them, but I should hopefully get my money back with no issues. If not I'll raise hell until I do. :lol

Thanks. I'll get the police involved if I have to, but I don't think that'll do much good. My mom thinks it was a computer scam. Like they just kept hitting random numbers until they got a hit, and it happened to be me.

Well, I am known for spreading chaos and sometimes dispair among maidens such as yourself, but I regret that in this instance, someone was able to get to you long before I could have done.

And GoD, I'll have you know, I also spent it on wine.
