That's why we have to give it up to <a href='http://www.nick.com/celebrity/ariana-grande.html' target='new'>Ariana Grande</a> and <a href='http://www.nick.com/celebrity/liz-gillies.html' target='new'>Liz Gillies</a>, who recently braved the open road in pursuit of their Drivers Licenses! </p> <p> <img src="/nick-assets/shows/images/star411/blogs-3/gillies-grande-get-license-pic-2.jpg" border=0 alt="ariana grande"><br clear="all"> </p> <p>Before walking into the DMV in L.A. to face the test, the stars couldn't control their nervous jitters. And who could blame them? The girls found strength in pairs, heading in together to conquer the driving beast. And waddayaknow? Success triumphed over all!</p> <p> <img src="/nick-assets/shows/images/star411/blogs-3/gillies-grande-get-license-pic-3.jpg" border=0 alt="liz gillies"><br clear="all"> </p> <p>Liz hit the tweet trees chirping, "'I now have 2 permits & no license. For those of you who are confused, I went & passed my written test, I didn't go and fail my driving test :)" And Ariana didn't stay behind. "We passed!!!!!," she chirped. "#imdrivinghome #watchouteveryoneontheroad Eeep! I drove home and everyone lived! #greatnews" If having a license isn't a great way to kick-start the summer, we don't know what is. Congrats gals!</p>
