I learned to drive a Model A Ford when I was 8 years old. Mother put Sears Roebuck catalog behind my back so I could get close enough to the pedals. We'd switch seats just before we got to the city limits. But, I could already do everything with the old WC including plowing (ploughing??). Plowing (ploughing??) was the difficult thing for me until I learned to back up a little to get the force of the dirt off the moldboards before I tried to adjust the levers. No hydraulics in those days. (;>)) I'm 75 years old now and have never had an accident (there aren't enough accidents to go around. Not just anyone can have one) but you wouldn't have been able to pull a dollar bill between me and the car spinning out of control one time. Mostly luck.
