I got ATTACKED at the train station [ZLzPwvHkc3U]

Daniel resumed driving lessons following an incident of harassment by a group of teenage boys at a train station while traveling to London for a date.

Daniel previously gave up driving after failing a practical test at age 18, but reconsidered getting a car to avoid weekend train station confrontations and impress dates.

Daniel completed two driving lessons in a manual diesel car, drove roughly ten miles to Maidstone and back, found the experience far less stressful than at age 18, and seeks more frequent lessons despite instructor scheduling limits.

Daniel is researching electric car purchases, assessing models including the Renault Zoe, Nissan Leaf, BMW i3, Hyundai Ioniq, and Tesla models featuring falcon-wing doors.

At age 18, Daniel failed a practical driving test and gave up on driving.

A group of eight or nine teenage boys broke bottles, shouted into the assist system, commented on Daniel's eyes, and threw a large stick at Daniel on a train platform while Daniel was traveling to London for a date.

Daniel took two driving lessons in a manual diesel car, which included driving approximately ten miles to Maidstone and back.

Daniel questioned whether car purchase financing would be approved given an absence of official employment.

Daniel was uncertain whether the teenagers noticed or cared that Daniel was standing near a security camera.
