Anywhere in the world :p
I learnt by playing nfs.

But I have always been arrogant. On the road , give respect to earn respect. I drive like a maniac , but usually I give people and drivers respect :p

I remember an interesting incident : )

I was on my way back home to Bahria town Isb , from saddar, when i stopped to let two females cross the road. The taxi driver behind me kept honking his horn.

I was majorly pissed at him. Decided to teach him a lesson. Came right in front of him and put on the brakes. The impact was instantanous. The front of his taxi got wiped out. I didn't even bother stopping. Just told him, next time you honk the horn when the ladies are crossing, it will be worse.

I was raised like a snob. Have ruined many cars, and have won many races : )

:D

I have a car but I can't drive.It doesn't means that I didn't learn (I have CNIC & Driving Licence too) my mother doesn't grant permission
to me reason is she afraid & worried about me that I couldn't hit anybody & I like to drive car or bike with rules & regulation if anybody
wrongly overtake or drive I loosed my temper & the heart yearns that I beat those restarted drivers..thats why my mother doesn't granted
permission so drive safe...

I remember when I started. I was about 10 and I reversed my uncle's Honda City i-DSi and started driving around in Safari (Bahria town). Wasn't allowed to drive more than that though. After that I moved on to a i-VTEC Steermatic 1.5 Honda City, then a gold Corolla Altis 1.8 and I drive that very rarely. I'm 13 now but I'm still not allowed to drive :p
All I do is reverse the car or move it forward and that's it.

Wow.... our society has dropped at a level which cannot be described in any words. My dad use to say driving is an art. And at this age when i drive my personal car alone for 24 hours continuously i now know what he means. You kids should slow down and only start driving when you can handle things urself.

I think I learned how to drive at around 12, can't really remember correctly. My dad taught me in a charade :p.
I never have actually driven a car regularly on every day basis except when we got a 2.0D for two weeks :D. There have been some times when I never drove for months at a time.
Got my license this year but still don't drive much. Main reason I think is I don't find it fun to just take out the car and drive around without no apparent reason BECAUSE OF MEGA ANNOYING TRAFFIC IN ABBOTTABAD :mad:

That's barely the definition of learning to drive.

Driving is a whole different ball game than moving your car inside and out of your garage/driveway. Just saying.

I start learning to drive when I was 18, I was not allowed to touch the stearing before that.

I still thank to my father who once told me, the art of driving a car is not in driving like a maniac, putting full throatle and driving like mad on the roads, the art lies in knowing your control limites.

I joined a driving school at 18. Mainly because no one at home had the leisure of taking time out to teach me driving. Plus, it's better to learn from pros.
Have been driving ever since. I'm a rash driver but safe. Never been part of an accident so far Alhamdulillah

Learned to drive when at were 9? I'm surprised most of the people didn't start driving when they were nine months old. I mean how does one's mother even let them drive?

    BTW, i started Ghost of Tsushima, and it got me hooked within the first couple of minutes. I already know It's gonna be a memorable experience. This is how you make a proper Samurai game. Not that SJW game Ubisoft is making.

    That's still higher than it's total play length. A 5 hour campaign for a $50 game is downright scammy.

    Consoles were my main platform ever since Atari 2500. But now I think it's not worth it as PC especially with DLSS deliver far smoother performance. AW2 on console didn't even had ray tracing and ran below 30fps. Similar issues plagues DD2 on consoled.
    The cross gen era really made people think 60fps would be a new standard lol

    Welp, done with Hellblade 2. Thoroughly disappointed. Such a nothing burger after the unique experience of the first game.

    I have a PS5 but I am not satisfied with the experience. I am currently saving for a 4080 64 GB rig soon. Bit will wait for Pro if performance improves. This gen has been so bad I don't plan on buying consoles anymore for AAA gaming.

    Both PS and Xbox have been a flop this gen as they can barely maintain 30 fps in a lot of AAA games th.

    As per WCCF Tech review, Xbox Series X doesn't even maintain a consistent FPS and sometimes drops into the mid-20fps range. That's unacceptable, tbh.

    Score 1 for game pass. I wouldn't pay full price for this at retail either.

    Just downloaded my first legit digital PC game on GoG at a discount of $8: Two Point Hospital. The same team behind Theme Hospital Two Point Studios now part of Sega. And I am having more fun than most recent AAA games except of course BG3.

    Still, I don't like either Sony or Microsoft as they are focusing more on corporate greed than delighting customers. PC gaming is best of gaming and worth every penny.

    PC Gamer score of 58/100 for Hellblade 2??? Is it really worse than Gollum that was 64/100? Microsoft games can't even come close to high scores of Sony exclusives apparently.

    About the Microsoft (and Sony) debate, I feel both have become too greedy and losing their minds over corporate greed. Personally, I will never buy any console next gen and switch to PC gaming where democracy reins.
