Driving Lesson Number 5.
Well this actually happened a couple of weeks ago, so forgive me if I forget some things about it!
I got off to a flyer when I almost hit a car pulling out from outside my house! Oops! I have a habit of releasing the clutch too fast when setting off so that's something I really need to work on. That and putting it into neutral when coming to a stop at the end of the lesson!
I'm sure my instructor had filled her car up with kangaroo petrol too because the car was jumping all over the place!! Or maybe not eh...?
She took me up a big hill with a mini roundabout at the top of it, which I proceeded to stall at while waiting... oops! While I was trying to sort myself out though, I had a very annoying old woman sitting behind me who pipped her horn at me?!?!?! Er... hello!!! Learner driver here!!! The big white triangle SHOULD give that away?!?!?! Eeeeejit!! Add to that the jackass who was dazzling me with his lights at another roundabout and it wasn't the most enjoyable lesson I've had!
After the mini roundabout incident I ended up behind another learner driver who was stalling more than me and that's saying something! Anyway, my instructor had me follow him for a while to see what happens each time I stall and stuff and to see just how easy it is to do it! I felt so much better after seeing it, even though the poor bloke kept me at 20 mph right through the town when I was dying to hit 30!
