The government would probably take your license away, however you still have the right to drive your car. The American Revolution was fought for the rights to life, liberty, and property and a car definitely counts as property. You have the right to use your car as you see fit.
Its sad that people during the Regressive Era (early 1900s) actually let the government get away with that. They also let the government get away with a Counterfeiting Agency (Federal Reserve), an income tax that made the Stamp Act look reasonable, and a welfare system that gives money to people for not working. We also got tax-supported compulsory (as in forced attendence) government schools and a ban on the rights of young people to work. There was no anti-youth discrimination prior to that era, which was the culmination of the arrogant and utopian Victorian era.

That is true. In most states if you are not enrolled in high school or any other education program that is equivalent and you are under the age of 18, you lose your privelage to drive. HOWEVER if you have recieved your GED, documentation can be produced to the Department of Motor Vehicles and you will be allowed to get your license.
That should not be a problem because most community colleges require you to have a High School Diploma, be enrolled in high school or have recieved a GED anyway.

My existence has been grew to become interior out and the different way up, so it extra valuable no longer be looking!

you'll still be able to drive. i dropped out of high school in 10th grade (before even taking drivers ed) and got my ged. i started taking driving classes at a private institution and got them in less than 2 months. you still can, you're mom's just trying to tell you that.

That sounds pretty crazy, but I guess it's a good enough reason to finish high school, right?
