Before someone gets their driver’s license, they are confined to the places they or others, that are willing to take them, can go. This confinement can lead to a strive for more freedom. Luckily, there are many remedies to this confinement, specifically, driving.
While getting one’s driver’s license does take an extensive period of time and a car to drive, completing the training is 100 percent worth it. This simple card enables one to be able to travel to wherever their heart, and wallet, desires.
A learners permit is the tip of the iceberg when it comes to freedom. One can go wherever as long as the supervisor in the car is also on board. This glimmer of freedom makes learners strive for more as they are being exposed to freedom but still restrained from complete freedom. So, when someone gets their full license, they can finally break free and explore until their heart’s content.
People rely on other drivers or other modes of transportation to get around before they can drive. This isn’t the best as most modes of transportation are limited to the seasons and asking others for rides can make one seem desperate and can cost them if the people who drive them charge them for gas.
Hanging out with friends, exploring, going out to eat, traveling, and many other things are possible with a driver’s license. Without a license most people are confined to their house and wherever they have the will to go by walking, biking, etc., and in a mountainous town like Truckee, inclines are very frequent making it more strenuous to travel. But once someone gets their license, a whole new world of opportunities reveals itself.
Once one gets that glimpse of freedom they realize the amount of possibilities open to them. This newfound freedom can enable one to help others more often if they need to get around or if they need something picked up. Along with that, asking if people want to go places more often, because one is able to bring them there, can be a new change. This freedom can also make people more considerate due to them having the ability to help others in more ways.
While Getting a license is great, it does take time and resources. To begin, upcoming drivers have to do a drivers education course. Aceable Driving is a very popular course as it is straightforward and always accessible as it’s an app. Once one completes the course they are provided with several practice tests for the permit test. After one gets their permit they need to take driving lessons. Unfortunately, Truckee is limited to a few, the most popular being EZ Way and Better Way Driving. While prices vary throughout the process to get a license, one can obtain the minimum amount of money necessary with probably around, or even less than, one summer of working regularly.
In total, getting a driver’s license is one of the best things someone can do as it provides for a mound of new opportunities and can even make someone a better person. It takes everyone different amounts of time due to several factors so someone should feel bad if they failed their test or got their license later than their friends. Once someone gets their license they will finally be able to break the shackles of their confinement and explore, meet new people, and enjoy the freedom they deserve.
