Cars and driver licences

Renita

Katie I think a lot of your misbeliefs directed at me is simply because American lifestyle is a bit different then Europe. Am I the only only American on the forum?

I'm hispanic American, if it matters.
And, no, it's not American lifestyle, but lack of your education and culture.

James If I was a border officer I would ask the same.
A young girl can drive a pickup in 3 cases only:

She is a handywoman
She needed a car urgently and had to use her husband's or dad's
A moving truck

Otherwise she looks like a bumpkin.

Oh. She totally looked out of place....but, well. looks at White House

You know.

Katie

Laura or she just like diesel pick ups. That is so sexist that a girl can’t drive a pick up.

Renita

Katie That is so sexist that a girl can’t drive a pick up.

She can, of course. Also can wear unisex clothes, never wear high heels, etc. We live in free country.

Laura

Angelina I admit I wanted to mark myself first.

Would you like to drive a pickup? 😂

Angelina

Laura Would you like to drive a pickup? 😂

No, but just because these kinds of cars are too big for me 😂

Laura

Angelina No, but just because these kinds of cars are too big for me

What do you mean too big? Usually if you drive in general, you can drive even big trucks. Another question is what for

Angelina

Laura Usually if you drive in general, you can drive even big trucks.

that's exactly what I doubt. 😂

An f-250 diesel is way bigger then a car. It does take a bit of practice.

Vanessa

Angelina

😉

Laura

Is it the same driver license for both?

Angelina

Katie It does take a bit of practice.

that's what i mean, i don't rule out driving a car like this, but it won't be my first car 😂

Laura

Katie No difference for me between Smart or a full VAN

Katie

do you hit a lot of stuff lol? They both need to be driven differently

Laura

Katie They both need to be driven differently

Of course, they do. But you recognize it instantly

Laura

Vanessa Yes, passenger cars, small trucks and VANs require the standard driver license only.

Katie

Laura in USA you can drive anything up to 26,000 pound without additional license. It’s pretty messed up that someone can drive a huge bus sized motor home with no extra training.

Laura

Katie I thought it's more about hydraulic/pneumatic brakes

Katie

Laura generally up to 26,000 has hydraulic brakes, but if it does have air brakes and is under 26k your fine. Over 26k varies by state. Some allow you to 44k with no training. It goes by the state your license is in, not the state you intend to drive in. Most of the ones that have air brakes are over 26k.
