Should I still pursue this career or will it be a waste if my time to wait until im 21?

I am currently 19 years old too young to be a driver for ups which is 21. I got into an auto accident on December of 2017. I was t-boned by another driver who was distracted while driving but it ended up being my fault because I was blocking her right of way. I got a minor ticket for failure to yield at an uncontrolled area. She collided me at a Y intersection. I will try my best to draw what has happened. Regardless I still wanted to know whether or not i should continue and stay at UPS as a package handler because I really want to be a driver until I retire. Thank You for your feedbacks.
Regarding the picture: I was sitting there for at least 4-5 seconds waiting for Car C to pass me before I make my turn onto Southbound of Street B. So basically the only way I could make it so that it wasn't my fault is that if there were witnesses or if i had a camera. And the only other way for me to avoid the accident is if I knew that she wasn't going to stop or I reverse back into Street A.[/QUOTE

19 might be to young to drive but you are old enough to do many other things...

No don’t do it. Many years ago I had the opportunity to become a local policeman in my hometown. At that time I had 15 years as a driver making over 60k and the starting wage for the police job was 34k which at that time I had three kids and married and could not afford that pay cut ... UPS was not as bad as it is now at that time ... Ohhhhh I regret that decision .. and to top it off my friends who are policemen are now making 90kand above. We live and learn and you only have 1 chance in life .
