The learning to drive thread (that means you as well Northener)

[oliveoil]

Right. Have got my form for my provisional. Although I do have one from eons ago, with the wrong address on.

Anyone else?

Come on, I can not be the only biddy not able to drive.

Chop chop.

I have a complete melt down when it comes to reverse parking. Have been on the 2pass website as well.
Please can you guys tell me how your instructors have taught you to do it?

mine uses little markers round the car. am learning in a cors. its one fukl turn left when back or vechile appears in back mirror, one full turn right when front/back vechile appears middle of in pasenger windown, when wheel arch appears above the kerb another full turn right, then when vechile is straight a full turn left.

seems to work qwell. we also practised using a set of poles he has in the boot.

I have just started lessons again after three years not behind the wheel. I have bought a car for me to practicein (my hubby drives a left hand drive car so not practicing in that!) the theory being the car is an incentive to take and pass the test.

Have had two lessons with my BSM instructor so far, first lesson he took me round the magic roundabout in Swindon - aarrgghhhh! And had me reversing round corners. Sunday I was doing three point turns so I am feeling vaguely confident now but who knows - I did stall and panic in the middle of the magic roundabout on Sunday which was pretty embarrassing!
