No man, no full license.

I used to steal cars when I was a kid so I can drive I just can't drive to standard, well to be honest It's been about 17-18 years since I've attempted to drive a car properly so would probably ride the clutch and stall the shit out of one now.

I've got a provisional so I'm just gonna go find some big supermarket car park with the missus and kill this Civic estate I got free off my dad until I can afford a crash course.

By the end of the year I'll be driving I reckon.

My retired nurse next door neighbor with the copper for a son has cut down all her bushes, she can see right into my kitchen now so I have to be careful having a bong in my own house ffs!

She wasn't impressed when I told her the other week that I'm gonna have a bash at distilling Gin in the garage if she fancied a snifter, seen as I'm licensed I might as well put it to good use.

Her face kind of dropped with shock at the thought of it, her "well, won't it blow up if you leave it unattended" was priceless!

I can just imagine the gossip at the neighborhood watch meetings. :lol:

lol I meant more along the lines of-- a while back there was a change in the law with regards to driving lessons etc in supermarket car parks and the like, basically unless the car park has a locked gate seperating it from the public roads then they do you the same as if you were driving on the roads

As far as I know its always been like that mate unless its privTe land and u have the owners permission its illegal to drive anywhere without a licence or insurance, supermarkets and other car parks are the same so u would get fucked either way,

Now its not even legal to own a car without insurance even if u aint using it,

If 7ts a supermarket carpark u need the owner permission before its legal to drive its private land but u still need permission to use it, best bet is find a bit of land owned by a local farmer and get him to let u rip the car about there
No mate sorry.

Statute only applies to the queens highways, I don't care what Mr Plod thinks.

And statute also only applies to registered vehicles, only registered vehicles being driven (in respect of commerce) need insurance and tax and a license and shit on the queens highways.

alot of the reason ppl get fucked over is a lot of supermarket car parks are actually rented from the council so are classed as public roads, also I think its only Tescos that actually own all of their stores, all the other chains rent buildings and car parks

Usually you'll find that if it's a big store on it's own then the land will be owned but if it's on a complex with cinemas and shit they'll rent it.

The only reason I haven't de-registered it and fucked the number plate/tax/insurance off is because in this line of work it would be more hassle than it's worth having the cunts know my face after getting pulled umpteen times.

As for the lessons.

I have a provisional license = check
I have a suitably experienced driver to instruct me = check
The car is fully insured/taxed and will show up as such on any police reference = check
The land is private = check
We can even make it gated and not connected to any roads if so be it = check


If Mr Plod thinks he can prove that I'm personally not insured to drive the car and he's nicking me he can fuck off!
Plod has no way of knowing.
