15th July 2007 another good lesson and parking
Why is it after good lessons theres not as much to write about? I think speed was the main thing this lesson and parking as everything else seemed to go quite well well no doubt could do with more mirror checks. Speed went slightly over a few times my instructor told me once or twice even once when I was doing 31mph in a 30. Missed seeing a few speed signs and my instructor asked me what speed was a few times. Stopped bit far out of one junction then made car slow down as I pulled out. Had to drive through big puddle again which I did well. My instructor decided to get me to drive up a very steep hill which I needed 1st gear to get up so ended up stalling at bottom messing with gears so started car up again and managed to get up it well though slightly fast though it was cos I was making sure I had enough power on to get up it.
Did bay park to the left a few times lost count how many but one was bit wonkey as I straightened up bit soon, needed more observations hit kerb on one and did last one well. Then tryed to bay park to the right 1st one totally wrong missed bay I was ment to be parking in had to try for one next to it parked over white line. 2nd go I managed ok though slightly wonkey but instructor said would of been ok on test as not on white lines.
Parallel park 1st one went like one of my first attepts as in would of ended up on kerb as I left steering right too late. 2nd and 3rd attempt my instructor told me when to turn right and I managed it ok. Also did my best manoeuvre turn in road love that one... Yes it went well.
Practiced the show me tell me questions then had to do another turn in road type thing in area where you can park cars to get out which went well.
