emo_gazz Posted September 23, 2006 Report Share Posted September 23, 2006 (edited) Take it easy for now. Nerves get the better of you all the time, well in my case. Got the better of me 4times before i got over it and passed.Ya get that used to your drivin instructor so you feel ok with um, then on the day you get a stranger and thats it.But now i think i could pass every time. Like they say. You only start learning once you've passed, and i can say that is so try. Edited September 23, 2006 by emo_gazz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Philplop Posted September 23, 2006 Report Share Posted September 23, 2006 Jesus, that is fast progress, I think it differs between teachers too how fast they go. On my first lesson he spoke to me about all the controls and things for ages, then I did a few starts and stops on the industrial estate and he drove me home. Don't think I even got out of first gear or went round a corner. style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":(" border="0" alt="sad.gif" /> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul Posted September 23, 2006 Report Share Posted September 23, 2006 Sorry I'm late but happy birthday! style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheers:" border="0" alt="cheers.gif" /> And congratulations on making so much progress in your first lesson style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" /> Like the others on here, my first lesson involved learning about the controls, then pulling away and balancing the clutch.

lunalupi Posted September 24, 2006 Report Share Posted September 24, 2006 You must have a good instructor to do all that - I had a great one who got me learning really fast too style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />Tip from my old instructor:Once you're confident and driving well, talk between you and your instructor as you as you drive - you'll find it helps you once you pass and start carrying passengers who yap on all the time, you wont be so easily distracted by it style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=";)" border="0" alt="wink.gif" /> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
