Not bad at all.
You would probably be just legal driving without glasses.
(Not that that's a good idea: it's lethal out there, and you need all the edge you can get.)
Anything nearer than 1 metre is in perfect focus until you run out of accommodation close to your nose (how close depending largely on your age).

-1.00 is not bad. You can probably see fairly well without your glasses, but may have difficulty seeing at night or in the rain. A negative prescription means you are NEARsighted, meaning you have difficulty focusing on objects that are distant. The condition is known as myopia.

That's the lowest prescription that a reputable optometrist would prescribe corrective lenses for, normally. You are very slightly nearsighted/shortsighted.
