The first gasoline auto was built by Karl Benz in 1885, he was the first test driver of his Autowagen and in its first public appearance went out of control and crashed it into a wall.
In 1895 Frank Duryea was the driver of the Duryea, built by Frank and his brother in the "first motorcar race in America," held in Illinois. The Duryea was built in 1893 by Frank and Charles, although there is no indication of who drove it first. Duryea was only in business for three years as a car company, disolving in 1898.
However, the first test drive of a gasoline powered car happened years earlier than when you asked, in 1885. If the definition of car is with four wheels, as the Benz Autowagen was a three wheeled vehicle, then the answer would go to Gottlieb Wilhelm Daimler who test drove the first four wheeled automobile in 1886. If the names of Benz and Daimler look familiar they should, as Daimler-Benz is the parent company of modern Mercedes Benz today.
