Iāve only told one person when it is so that thereās no pressure from anyone else.
so I would say absolutely go for it!All cars being electric is way off, itās at least 30 years away. The infrastructure just isnāt in place for it at all as yet and at the moment electric vehicles are charged via the burning of fossil fuels!!!!Good luck everyone with upcoming tests! I'm a way off mine yet but my lessons are definitely becoming a lot easier.
I think learning auto is a wise choice at the moment, 10 years ago sure, it was very limiting and i think most people getting critical of autos are stuck in that mindset. Nowadays it is very different! I'm learning manual but I do think it is a bit of a waste when all cars will be electric soon enough
Heās said a few odd things about women in catsuits before or talked about where the āladies of the nightā worked but I felt so uncomfortable.If you feel comfortable to do so, it may be worth reporting him to whomever the regulatory body is for driving instructors.Sat doing a bay park today and my instructor starts talking about bondage..!?
My 17 year old brother was learning with him too but he suddenly sacked him and heās waiting to learn with someone else. Iām wondering what heās said to him!
2.5 weeks til my test or id be off!
I think I will if I pass. Hes already made me change my test three times due to him being double booked for it and heās very racist.
I'm happy with my parallel parking, and parking on the right. Just not so happy with my bay parking.Remember with bay parking you can ask to check how straight you are and open your door and have a look. Obviously you have to stay seated. You can also pull out and straighten up as many times as needed .Had a lesson today, only 1 more lesson now until my test. Today's lesson wasn't the best, it wasn't bad at all, and at the end of the lesson she reassured me she has no concerns that I won't pass. It's just my nerves kicking in a bit I think. I was thinking or taking kalms to help a bit in the week before my test. Does anyone think this will help?
I'm more confident with my actual driving than I am with my manoeuvres
Yeah this is what happened to me. I had a reverse bay park at the end of my test and I backed in, but I wasnāt in the lines and I said to the examiner, āwhat happens if I donāt get it in the lines?ā And he said āwell you fail your testā. So at that point I realised I hadnāt failed and I needed to get it in the lines! Luckily my instructors car had a reverse camera and I just used the lines to line myself up!
That is awful!! And to have to wait so long until the next date as well. I'm so sorry, gutted for you.
I know I'll get there and my instructor has been fab so far. I'm bloody exhausted now.I've heard a few people having this happen now, I'm sorry it's happened to you. I'm sure there will be cancellations before 3/12. Keeping everything crossed for you lovely.
You will get there I used to be exactly the same. Found roundabouts so overwhelming but keep keep it. Dgn videos on you tube are great tooThat is awful!! And to have to wait so long until the next date as well. I'm so sorry, gutted for you.
Had my second lesson this morning, I think it went really well all things considered but bloody hell are roundabouts hard. I just can't get my head on straight when it comes to slowing down, changing gears, lane discipline and position and looking for what is coming on the right
Roundabouts weāre honestly my worst fear, but I just keep saying to myself āmirror, signal manoeuvreā - baby steps and get your speed right down, and work on judging other cars from there. I still find it a bit tricky on bigger roundabouts but itās come on so far since Iāve started talking myself through the steps.
and had my final lesson before my test next week.Diesel is marginally cheaper than petrol, but not by very much - it used to be considerably cheaper but not anymore. It really doesnāt matter in the grand scheme of things. Donāt over think it!!!!Just put a deposit down on car
The car I've put a deposit down on, is diesel. Does that matter? Some people are telling me its a good thing whereas some say the opposite. Also a few people have raised eyebrows at me for buying a car before I've passed my test, does it matter?
Itās your first lesson! Relax. Deep breath. Remember you are there to learn, no one is expecting you to know what to do do just chill out and enjoy it
ThankyouItās your first lesson! Relax. Deep breath. Remember you are there to learn, no one is expecting you to know what to do do just chill out and enjoy it
I honestly feel like Iām going to have a panic attack
