Learning to drive

This is going to be about my driving lessons. I will write what I remember about each one and update it after each lesson after that. I hope you enjoy reading this and if you are learning to drive you may be able to relate to some things and if you are thinking of starting lessons go for it as I put it off a bit and now wanting to do it all at once. Feel free to leave comments, but any comments unrelated to the blog or advertising will NOT be accepted and will not be seen by anyone.

9th June 2007 good extra lesson

Wasn't supposed to have lesson today but my instructor had a pupil cancel so I had lesson instead this has to be the most enjoyable lesson yet had a right laugh. Quite a good lesson overall and it was an afternoon lesson 6.15 hour and half. The main mistake was accidently going a bit over speed limit a few times well most I ever done it really about 4 times, my instructor ended up pointing it out every time and said if I dare fail my test Tuesday for speeding I'll be getting bus home though he was joking as he was great when I failed first time though not for speeding, I threatened to drive at 20mph all way on test to make sure I didn't speed. He then jokingly said he would drop me off in area he lives and I could get bus home I laughed and told him to get lost. He kept making screeching noise when I slowed down to stop at traffic lights as if I was braking too hard. I thought I was in 3rd gear and needed to be in 4th so I change gear to relise I was already in 4th so change back my instructor copies me and asks what that was about and keeps whistling and humming loudly then starts tapping on the door and says he only does that when he's nervous, I tell him I'm not that bad. I'm told to go left but end up going right (suprised I've not done more mistakes with instructor making me laugh all time) instructor asks when has right been chuffing left.

I do good turn in road and practice bay park 1st to the left and for first time I managed it, then to the right and have to go forward to correct it still not great but better. On way back my instructor says I'm speeding again but I wasn't I was doing the exact speed limit 40mph and tell him that but he still says I was doing 42mph maybe the speed meter on his side is different to one on my side. I then go bit near white line on a bend and he says what you going to do if you crash doing that say it wasn't my fault (which I wouldn't do unless it wasn't my fault) I jokingly say yes it was my instructors fault, his rely was rubbish you know what I think of that. He told me take next right then relised it was 2nd right so I tell him it helps to say right direction 1st time. Then as I pull up at home I forget to signal to stop. Great lesson its good to have a laugh with instructor will miss having lessons when I pass. At minute after this lesson I'm not feeling like I have to pass like I did last time I'm more like just get there do my best and see how I do of course a pass would be great but I enjoy lessons aswell so something good with either result and if I do pass I'll do pass plus. Hope I can feel like this on Tuesday then mite not be as nervous.
