Ive been kind of learning to drive, on and off since i was 17, my confidence is in tatters so I dont really stick to more than a few lessons because of money issues or that an instructor has asked about me doing my theory......until this time, Ive had my lessons, booked a theory test (and passed!!) and my driving instructor kept saying about booking my test. he thought I would be ready by the middle of Aug....I held off, and got Monday...Ive been looking forward to this for 8+ weeks.
Im now looking and thinking that I cant reverse around the corner to save my life, no matter how many journeys out i take with my husband, or time i spend trying to learn with the instructor it just doesnt improve. i get one right for every 4/5 i mess up!
I can just about parallel park... just! i dont feel comfortable with it, but i generally seem to end up where i should.
I can do a 3 point turn, no problem, much of the rest of my driving is ok, but the past week im all over the place. I am so nervous, Ive forgotten how to do roundabouts! and which gear I should use... I dont tend to make the car stall but Its not right.
I didnt even know what show me, tell me questions were until thursday night.
Im feeling a bit let down by my instructor, because i was only shown an emergency stop on Thursday, and ive only done one hill start. im feeling really deflated, as i honestly cant see a way that i will pass this.
Anyone care to share their driving test stories?
