You're not sure yet?? Mine turned out to be a piece of cake, which is not the best thing considering there are plenty of ways to get car accidents now-a-days -_-

Parking is overrated, imo... people say it's the most difficult thing in the world but it was way too easier than I thought!

Mods only innit :kink:

Luciano, you are in Argentina right? How is it for learning to drive over there?

 

The UK is you get "L" plates, start learning to drive. Take a Theory and Hazard/Perception Test. After this, you have to take the practical within a year (this was the timeframe when I did it, Damon might know more than me as it is some time since I did the test). Usually your driving instructor puts you through a practice test with paper on his knee in his role as "examiner" prior to the actual test. You have to be 17.

Build up your confidence first Damon with a few more lessons. Also there are practice questions available online.

 

You are forgiven of course Twinkle. For you: -

It seems that way a lot of the time. How far along are you?

 

:wub: for Twinkle.

I've been doing 3 point turns and reversing for ages now, but not started parking or emergency stopping yet.

Ah that. They do spend a lot of time on the manoeuvres. There is a difference in camber on the road, the width of the road, and of course how busy the road is. You will do a lot of parking when you get round to it. Busy car parks, not so busy car parks, differences in the curb when you reverse into a road. Just a few examples I seem to remember.

 

They like to give you as many situations like that as possible because they don't know the actual route that you will take on your test. My instructor seemed to know the routes but did not know which route I was specifically be on on the day.

 

Best of luck with the driving Damon.
