My GF sucks at driving, what to do?
Seriously, she got her 98 Integra a few weeks ago for her first car. Shes 17, went through the whole permit thing. Not even 300 miles later, she gets into an accident. Completely her fault (Failure to yield). Shes one of those drivers that misses their exits because they're too scared to get over during traffic. Horrible sense of directions, missed one of her exits by 3 exits before she even realized it. Now shes going to get another car soon, what can I do to help before she wacks another car? Shes very clumsy and has horrible multitaski skills.

I disagree. I'd use force. A series of punches and kicks. Preferably to the face, vaginal, and anus regions.
I'm completely joking BTW, but ^ is crackin me up.

You might just have to teach her yourself. This isn't so much her fault, as it is the DMV for giving out licenses so easily. Also, don't let her drive when you're with her. At least you'll be spared. Personally I find few things more aggravating than having to be a passenger to bad drivers.

Oh yes, Last time she drove me around, I called my parents to let them know I love them before I got in the car. Her parents didn't give her any tips or advice when she was driving with her permit. They just kinda said, "Drive!". I'm planning on spending some time with her and teach her some basic driving skills. Also, she got her green integra because I have one. We drove 6 hours total to go get it. Now the next one we're driving 8 hours to go get it. If she wrecks this one i'm going to be pissed as hell.
And her parents suck at driving. Her dad drove me to go get her car and I almost threw up all over the place. That guy would drive on the shoulder because he can't find a spot to merge onto the interstate. =/

Easy fix....get her to learn how to control the car in a safe environment. Sign her up for an auto-x event. Dunno what its like in Memphis...but they have yearly girls only auto-x events here in socal.

that's why they say to get a junker for the first car because it's going to get wrecked. If you're worried about her safety get her a front bumper guard, jeep style, and let her roll on that. There's really not much you could do but complain to her so much that she stops. The first time she gets a ticket and it effects HER wallet (not her parents) she'll start driving better. trust me, my girl was horrible too until SHE started paying for her mistakes.

Its not so much that shes a crazy fast driver or anything. Its just that shes soooo cautious you know? That she "studders" so much in the road its dangerous. I think I drive alright, better than a lot of my friends, but dont we all think that about our selves?

have her as the passenger while you drive. give her tips and let her watch. Just looks like she spent most of her life staring aimlessly out the window in the passenger seat instead of watching the road and studying the driver. a little bit of watching might do her good.

but my guess is she doesn't stop completely at a stop sign now. Chicks get overconfident and careless.

Don't let her get an SUV.
That's what parents seem to buy their kids when they realize they're bad drivers, then innocent people end up hurt or get their cars totalled. Buy her a moped and a kute pink helmet with flowers on it. |
