I recently turned 18, so my parents signed me up for driving school. When I showed up at the academy, I was surprised by the cars they had available for students to learn on. They told me to pick whichever I liked best, and I chose the Mercedes-Benz G500.
Learned to drive in was over a long time so uhhhh whatever was around when my parents wanted to teach me.
My first car was the old family minivan though. 9x something dodge caravan.
Ahh the Chevrolet Datamine, it was also my first car!
My mom’s early 90’s minivan. I think it was a Voyager.
a 1968 International dump truck.
zero AC, zero power steering, zero fucks.
once you got going with a load, nothing would stop it, not even the brakes. but, it always started and never quit.
Early 80s Chevy Chevette.
It was so basic of a car it was unreal. Manual transmission, no radio, I mean, the damn thing was with a giant riding lawnmower with a hatchback.
Austin A30 van… Tell you I’m old without… etc etc https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Austin_A30?wprov=sfla1
Any other security questions you’d like people to expose? What about the street I grew up on driving that car? /s
🤣
how does the car you first drove relate to security?
It’s often a security question for institutions like banks to reset your security parameters.
I’ve only seen it as “what color was your first car?” But I learned to drive with my parents cars. They are not the same, nor even the same color
I suppose for some it’s the same and some may interpret the question differently
Nice way to get the answer to an often used security question!
I always thought these “ask” communities were a great vector to extract PII.
all you’d need to do is link users to leaked identities and probably get access to accounts quickly.
this is why I make up the wrong answers to any of those questions.
what was you first pets name?
Hannibal Lecter
what was your mothers maiden name?
Poopsmith
I have never seen this as a security question. I mean it sounds like one but have never seen it in the wild.
Why are americans still using security questions ? And why does every post get a comment like this one ? If you don’t like these, quit this community.

no sure. I did not get my license until like 21 because my friends were sick of me not being able to drive so I took it on my friends automatic small car. My parents had a stick shift station wagon.
Driver’s Ed: 1986 Chevy Cavalier and it was a horrible brown color.
Parent’s Cars:
1986 Buick Skyhawk: Very crappy car. The gas pedal didn’t so much produce acceleration, but rather an eventual increase of the angular momentum of the tires.
1970 Chevy Impala: Loved this car. Huge and had a 400cid small block with a 400 Turbo Hydromatic with a 12 bolt posi rear end. It’s the car that really taught me how to drive. It eventually ran 13’s in the quarter mile.
Learned how to drive manual: 1983 (I think) Ford Escort
REALLY learned how to drive a manual: 1949 Willys Overland. A friend’s Dad’s car. Why did it REALLY teach me how to drive a manual? Easy, it had a non-syncrho’d transmission, much like the big rigs have. This car taught me rev-matching, double clutching, and an appreciation about how cars really work. It also had a column shifter. Once I learned how to handle the transmission, it was a lot of fun to drive. It made me a much better driver.
The car that taught me how to race (there were two):
1985 Toyota MR-2: Was a friend’s car that I Autocrossed (Pro Solo) along with him. He actually made it to Nationals with this car several times. Later he won Nationals with a Supra Turbo. This was in the mid-90’s.
1985 Corolla GT-S: This was my car. It was the AE86 platform with the same engine as the MR-2. Absolutely ferocious car. It didn’t handle as well as the MR-2, but it was soooo much fun. This car taught me “trail braking” and a lot of other performance driving skills. This remains my favorite car I’ve ever owned, even to this day. I’d love to find one and restore it.
My sister’s first car was an 86 cavalier. It was blue and had a manual transmission. She stalled the engine going over train tracks once and the train crossing lit up as she was trying to restart it. Panic ensued…
The color of your first car is a fairly common backup question. Answering this in detail is not recommended.
1982 AMC eagle wagon with woody side panels.
The car actually caught on fire while I was driving, and I was known as the person that smelled like burnt car in high school, because that burning rubber/plastic smell stayed in my books and materials for the entire school year.
