Driving!

Just finished my driving lesson and I think I had made tremendous improvements! I like driving as I can step hard onto the clutch pedal, it's so fun! (why is it fun? no idea, maybe i just like to execute violent movement =p) Anyway for those who drive or had drove, the first few lessons must have been pretty memorable, isn't it? ;)

Here's an account of mine when I just started learning:

Here's the scene where the deal happened!
The scene with the actual traffic
So I was happily driving at 50+km/h, when all of a sudden, my instructor commanded me to turn right! Then just turn loh... ...

Hence, this is what happened... ...
The car swung from point B to point C!!! Interesting right ;)
Details:
At point A, almost get hit by the on-going car.
Point B, almost hit onto the stationary van.
Point C, ALMOST hit onto the moving lorry!

~Sweat~
When I was back on track, I swore I saw the instructor grabbed tightly onto the overhead grab handle! WTF! So scary meh?! ):

And he sarcastically remarked, "Your driving very good sia!" ):

Anyway he also pointed out my mistakes. So to friends who are going to learn driving if you happen to chance upon this situation.

1. Slow down (Turning at 50+km/h is pretty dangerous for beginners)
2. Stop before the white dotted line if you see on-going vehicles (Remember to signal in advance to prevent getting hit from behind!)
3. Turn to the right lane (Refer to the advanced theory handbook)

Haiz.. I think I'll need to take 40 lessons in order to go for my practical test! Know why? The instructor repeated the same story to me for 3 times already.

---His story---

He: "I got 2 testee last week/ 2 weeks ago/ a month ago (coz repeated 3 times). One took 20+ lessons, another took 40+ lessons. You guess who pass?"

Me: "Dunno/ Both" (1st time, i dunno. next 2 times, got the answer liao.)

He: "Both/ Ya. Some people are good in driving, some take a little longer. Just like some people have their forte in maths, some don't. For me, I never seem to get the calculations right, but luckily my languages not bad. When I learned driving... ....(Blah blah blah) So that's why I become an instructor."

---End---

So indirectly hor! :s Really need to buck up. I don't wanna end up in the "not so good" category. Gambatte =]

p.s. Driving is draining out my money! Anyone got any temp job to introduce? =p
