How do you convince parents to let you get your license?

It's not personal. They know the road well enough to know how long most people take to turn right. They're assuming you'll do the same. They think they're being a clever, sharp driver -- so if something goes wrong, they'll feel like it's "your fault" - which is why they act rude.

Nobody has a right to "push" you into driving harder than you want to. Slow down and drive the way you want, and if they're impatient, make them wait! Being nice to other drivers is a good thing, but not to the point of you being uncomfortable or breaking the law. You'll get the ticket, after all.

just fyi, if u just slam on the brakes for no clear reason, u risk getting rear ended. but what i hate is those that slow to about 5 mph on a clear and sunny day on a dry road, and u wind up getting a line of 20 cars backed up waitin for that yahoo to move it.
