I have spent the majority of the last 7-8 years as a sole parent of my two daughters, now 9 & 10 years old. My daughter's mother moved back in with us a couple of years ago & we function quite well as friends & co-parents.
I have a decent driving record with no demerit points for 19+ years because I am a careful driver, knowledgeable on traffic rules, patient & considerate.
I have had my license since the early 90's & have never been involved in any kind of accident, which I put down to care & sound defensive driving skills.
