Donno, if they say off your feet for 3 weeks, I would not chance it. You may be young enough to be a fast healer, but if something goes wrong putting any pressure on that foot, you may end up worse off in the long run.

Keep cool don't push yourself. No driving, one footed is not a good thing especially if you need to stop. Heel toe is another thing but that urge to use the proper foot may come before you think about braking.

I´ll share your pain John,  wish you a speedy revovery,
 but as others mentioned, dont force something, and tread lightly on it.

I felt down some stairs at the local town hall tuesday,
In the process, i have tored some bands in my left ankle.
Doing the pirate walk with crutches at the Moment,
havent canceled anything of my USA trip yet,
the flights are non refund anyway, if i cant go, 1500$ up in ashes.
and the Hotel at Kenosha has a 2 weeks policy, which gives me at least another 5 weeks time to recover.

Ouch! Wow, that hardware, you need to keep on the shop wall once removed.

I had a feeling you would have to keep off your foot for some time. Bones heal slow as you get older.
