Driving Lesson Number 7.
Well, I got back from this weeks lesson about 20 minutes ago and my arms are aching! I'm not actually sure why because I wasn't tense or anything, maybe it was because I was actually using 5th gear a lot, so was having to change more often! Hehehehe!
I even managed to get to 60mph a couple of times which is a real achievement for me! Last week I managed 55mph but felt a bit nervous travelling at that speed so I slowed down a little.
I need to work at my roundabouts though because I'm approaching too fast and there's one bugger that eludes me each time I come to it!! Blinking Tesco, why couldn't they leave it as a normal road?? :-( I keep taking it too wide and snake about when leaving it. Oops... I just know she's gonna take me on it again next week because she had me go over it 3 times tonight! :-P
I think going out for an hour with my dad at the weekend helped with my gears because I was much smoother tonight, although I was hitting 4th instead of 2nd, whereas before I was hitting 5th instead of 3rd! D'oh!
I attempted a little bit of reversing too but I think I need to concentrate on them roundabouts for now!!
