Lesson 15/16

The same old thing happened!
I drove around, practicing manoeuvers.

Today (3rd May) drove down the Portway past @Bristol and then up park street, after that I’m not sure, but we did up going through Westbury and Southmead.

Did three or four turns in the road at the Downs. I also did a couple of left reverses and a parallel park.

Theory test next week, I’m doing a test run on Friday to see how long it will take me to get to the test centre.

14th Lesson

I just got back, so I’m not late in posting this 😉

We drove out of Bristol, and on to Nailsea, and Backwell, along a dual-carriageway. I got into 5th gear! hehe. highest speed i got to: about 65mph (105km/h) – it was a dual-carriageway way.

Did a couple of turns in the road, and a left reverse. And just drove around.
The lesson started at 9am, and we stop in an industrial estate at about 9.50am.

I’m also going to book my theory test, I’ve got 1/2 an hour before I got to get ready to go to work.

Till next time

Driving – Tenth Lesson

Oh! Twenty hours of driving now…
And still no sign of taking my theory, or hazard tests, a bit more theory and hazard practice and ill book them

Onto driving now…
I am certainly getting better! 🙂 practiced parallel parking, left reverse, turn in the road, and emergency stop :phew:
Parallel parking could of gone better! the emergency stop was near perfect. As was the turn in the road and left reverse, but i do need to improve my observations on the last two.

Pulling back out side the house was a little hair-raising. I’m not going to say anymore, but lets just say the neighbours car needed to change its underwear! 😉

Bye for now

P.S.
I didn’t hit their car, but it was damned close, another foot or two…

Driving – Seventh Lesson

Ive done seven lessons already!!! Thats 14 hours of driving, and I’m getting better.
Drove away from the house, and onto the Portway, and it was nice! My driving instructor said that he enjoyed it!

I reversed around a left corner three times, that was fun, I don’t think I hit the kerb, or the pavement, and I don’t think that i swung out too far.

Also did a bit more practicing emergency stops, four of them as a matter of fact.
On the third stop, the car skidded, and there was a little bit of smoke drift past the front of the car.
On the second circuit i saw the tyre marks left on the road, and they were going of to the side of the road.
Also practiced turns in the road

More next week
😉
