Thought I'd post this driving thingy i was doing for english revision! The question was: "write an article arguing that driving should be taught in schools"
I'll also finished it! I never did :|

Driving is seen as an important factor in life, it is possibly one of the most useful things you can learn in this modern day and age, along with maths, english and learning to toast a piece of bread. I'm not sure how good your education was, but maths and english played an incredibly large part in mine from the young age of five- and I learnt to make toast in year five when we were each assigned “toast duty” to sell for break time snacks (though I realise this isn't necessary in the usual curriculum). The instant we turn 17, the first thing we want is to know how to drive and to have a nice shiny car to cruise in, this is our chance to never have to sit on an old, solid, mangy bus ever again. No more stingy drunk people plodding onto the bus only to sit next to you, no more ragged old wet dogs thats' stench fills the entire bus and lingers even after they've got off- no more! For the first time we can chose our passengers and the state of them. Driving is an opportunity to get out when you like and wherever you like- if mum says it's ok of course- the difficulty is the expense both of the lessons and the car itself. The waiting list for driving tests can be longer than the ques in primark on a saturday afternoon, a friend of mine booked his three monthes after his 17th birthday and had his first test two monthes before his 18th- to me, this is slightly ridiculous.



bit naff so far. will work on. feedback?
