Alabama drivers ranked 31st in national driving test!

I took the test available at http://www.nationaldriverstest.com/
My score on that test was a 70%. I know I can't drive one because I am biologically a woman ah ah and two I learned from my stepfather, who is a hippie from new york, and a my older brothers who had very fast cars ha ha. There is family joke that whenever something is wrong with my vehicle that I tell my dad and everyone says oh it is just a nut loose behind the wheel. :) I actually cried the first time they said that and begged them to tighten it so I wouldn't wreck. After awhile I caught on and felt stupid; however 2 weeks later as it so happens it was my brakes that was wrong and I wrecked on my way home from work. I didn't feel so stupid anymore.
Although i cannot begin to tell you how many tickets I have gotten, driving school I have attended and wrecks I have been in (most of them not my fault by the way Ha). The question asked was what was your first car and what did you want instead? After thinking about this really hard; I am glad that my family did not give me what I wanted. 1 because I wouldn't know how to work for what I want and 2 most of the first cars that parents buy kids are brand new and unsafe little sports cars. I have lost many classmates, friends and family due to car accidents and unsafe vehicles.
My first vehicle was that minivan in the picture. His name was "big blue" I remember that I had my first 2 and 1/2 wrecks in him ha ha and my first ticket!! It was the day after I got my license and my friend and I drove an hour and half to visit my grandma. On our way home we were driving through Huntsville, AL and I ran a yellow light--yup I got a ticket for it. That was my first driving school class ha ha I had to go to that the day I left for Florida with my friends for spring break! The first wreck was in my high school parking lot. I had just yelled at my friend "Lexi!! Get your butt in this van before someone takes you and my door with them" Ya I jinxed myself just as Lexi got in a girl came by in her little sports car and tried to cut through parking spaces to get out quicker and took my door with her. hahaha she left the scene and deleted voice mails and ripped up letters from the police so that her family would never find out. One week after we had gotten my door fixed Lexi and I were coming off of I565 onto Wall Triana in Madison, AL and a Holiday Inn van merged over on top of us. It took out my passenger side. I told Lexi she was bad luck and couldn't ride with me anymore ha ha.
It is Ironic that I always got speeding tickets with Jessica in my car and always got in wrecks with Lexi in my car. hahaha. I even was going through Winn Dixie parking lot with Lexi and I lost my hubcap on the curb hahaha that was my 1/2 wreck hahaha. Eventually, after it had gone through my parents, my older sister and me it had had it and decided to die on us. We sold it to some Mexicans for 300 bucks.
So, what was your first vehicle and what happened to it?
