Context: When I was younger, my dad got into a motorcycle accident and it made me not want to drive.
Speaker 1: When I was younger, my dad got into a motor cycle accident. It made me not want to learn how to drive for almost 2 years.
Speaker 2: That is understandable.  Such an experience can be tramatic.  Did you eventually learn?
Speaker 1: I did learn, but it took a long time to overcome my fear. I'm glad I eventually did!
Speaker 2: My wife had a similar experience, she still doesn't drive.  Good for you for overcoming it.
