Hi all , well the driving lesson is over now, forgot a couple of things , I slow down when coming to a bend , the instructor says I dont need too ( I dont like going round it at 30mph, the steering wheel was sore on me today ( but then I have missed getting used to it ) a few more lessons should get me up to the level I was , near crashed today ( not my fault the driving instructor told me wrong information. We were coming to a round about and he said just go stright on no cars coming , well this car had singalled that he was going left but must have changed and near ran into me I saw him coming and slowed down but the instructor was trying to use the cluth he was worried as he could not get it back up ( silly fool could have stalled my car ( he said sorry was my fault there ( I looked at him a boy was he sweating , I asked him if he was ok , he said yes are you ok I said , it is only sinking in now we near crashed and I had only got the car back.

booked him for Friday 11th March at 1pm

I am back

    At least your back behind the wheel of your car.....

    I'm afraid 'near misses' are part of driving now......on a daily basis...

    Just remember 'The only one you can trust.....is yourself'....

    Even if your instructor says its OK..........Always check for yourself.....

    Seems like you are making progress though.......keep it up....

    Made me laugh too.

    As Rob said you can only trust yourself and you did a good job avoiding an accident if you ask me.

    I thought so too Elizabeth, I could have speeded round the roundabout but once I saw the car I slowed down. just glad the car did not bang into it .
