I didn't get my driver's license until I was 18. At 16, after getting behind the wheel in Driver's Ed, I realized that I was just not ready to drive yet. (Kind of mature of me to realize that, really.) I dropped it in favor of a study hall in the library instead. When I was 18, I finally felt ready, and my uncle Eddy taught me how to drive. Of course, now I drive like I'm running laps at Indy!
