I like to think I'm a good driver. I navigated Fort Worth (and 800 miles of highway in between home and there) without incident, and I haven't had a speeding ticket in almost three years (more impressive considering I've only been driving for 6 years, and had had one a year for the first three).
I drive a 1999 Pontiac Grand Am, white, four door, with a V6 3.2 liter engine. She looks a lot like _this_, only white, and without the spoiler. Her name is Isabella, but I call her Izzy, and she is my baby.
I realized while I was in Fort Worth, where freaking EVERYONE drives the speed limit, that it's quite common around here to drive 5-10 MPH over the posted limit. It's not so much that I'm a speedster, as it is that traffic just flows fast here.
I'm pretty much ok with driving anywhere, and can handle parallel parking, and mot of the other things that generally drive people crazy. My pet peeve is people who don't use their blinkers. I kinda want to kill them all. Alternately, people who *do* use their blinkers, but then leave them on. >_
