This is what my then boyfriend's car looked like the first day he taught me to drive! We'd just come back from the police station where we organised my learner's permit. I turned into his driveway, and didn't straighten up in time.
The fence didn't look too good, either.
I didn't learn to drive at that time in my life, not because I knocked down his family's fence, but because shortly after I got my permit, my boyfriend bought himself an MG sports car. If you're 5ft2in, (156cm), and you've ever tried to drive an MG sportscar, you'll understand why I didn't continue my driving lessons.
I eventually learned in a Datsun 180b, taught by a friend.

Words from my Grandma
When asked "Why", she would reply "Because y's a crooked letter, and can't be straightened".
When asked how old she was, "As old as my tongue, and a little bit older than my teeth".
