Why are these sentences incorrect?


1. I have driven my friend's bike when I was 15 years old
2. I have gone abroad alone when I was 19 years old without fear.
3. I have visited to Saigon, which is a big city in my country, 2 times in May.
4. I have not traveled much in my country, but I have visited Cambodia and Thailand in June, 2016,

  1. I think all verb of these sentences need to be changed to past tense.
    1. I rode my friend's bike when I was 15 years old.
    2. I went abroad alone when I was 19 years old without fear.
    3. I visited to Saigon, which is a big city in my country, 2 times in May.
    4. I have not traveled much in my country, but I visited Cambodia and Thailand in June, 2016.

  2. The verbs in each sentence should be converted into past simple (drove, went, visited, and visited. Respectively) versus present perfect.

    2. I went abroad alone when I was 19 years old without fear.
    3. I visited to Saigon, which is a big city in my country, 2 times in May.
    4. I have not (didn't??)traveled much in my country, but I visited Cambodia and Thailand in June, 2016
    (simple past)
