Driving lessons
 

Im starting driving lessons next week.

Is anyone else here a recent or current learner? If so, what shall I expect for the first lesson?

Thanks

I remember in my first lesson, my instructor took me to a carpark and let me practice getting a feel for the clutch, which eventually led to doing figure of 8's at different speeds. After an hour and a bit of getting used to the car, I was allowed to drive home.

The best thing to remember when learning, is to be confident.. It's hard to crash or do anything bad, as the instrcutor has a set of pedals too, so take things at an easy pace, and it will all fit into place :wavey:

Good luck!

As I'm still 15, I can't give any advice for obvious reasons. But just wanted to wish you all the best for the lessons, I'm sure you'll do great! :thumbs:

Im only 15 too, but good luck!

During holidays my Mum take me to a disused air field near our house that I can practice driving on, I fing clutch control the hardest part, i bet that that will feature somewhere in your 1st lesson cc100.
Ive got my Provisional Licence but ive recently started 6th form and not found much time to practice, I think i'll wait to summer hols till i statr again :bigsmile:

I'm currently taking driving lessons and loving it, at first i was very nervous which is understandable but then by the second lesson i couldn't wait to get in the car again and now i'm pretty close to booking my theory, all i can say is keep relaxed and enjoy it, don't worry about the other cars around you everyone was like you at some point.

Thanks guys for the advice and good wishes.:thumbs:
