RE: Oh my god - WHAT HAVE I DONE?!? (who knew this was really a thing?)

When I was learning to drive, I pulled too far forward before turning into an underground parking garage, and overcorrected, so I was heading for the wall, and even though I was already correcting, my passenger yelled for me to stop, and startled me into slamming my foot down...on the gas. I dented the heck out of the wheel well, and freaked out. 😭

And then he made me drive home, and they got the car fixed and it really wasn’t that big a deal. Heh...

I’m glad you weren’t hurt or anything! Get some rest, if you can. 😘

It's amazing we get along as well as we do with cars when you think about it...
Thanks :-)

I mean, driving makes me super anxious, so I actually never went on to get my license when my driver's permit expired. 😬 I have been lucky enough to only live in and visit places with great public transportation systems! But not everyone has that luxury, alas.

When we moved to Atlanta from Nantes, France getting used to doing everything in the car was hard. I miss good transport so much!

Portland (Oregon) is known fairly well internationally for a nice transit system. We locals complain about it a lot, but the coverage is fairly good, really. Prices keep going up, though.

In Champaign-Urbana (Illinois), I hear transit is also quite good, and I will ride free as a university student, so I'm excited for that!
