Driving without assistance for the first time today.
 

I'm driving across London to visit my parents, and this will be the first time driving alone and on the motorway. I have my trusty Sat-Nav but I'm absolutely petrified. Any tips/things I should know before I hit the wheel???

Don't crash

Thanks my love x

Stay calm if you make a mistake don't panic, I went past my exit on my first solo journey...

Yeah, that's what I'm scared about. I'm not very good at reading signs! Was always taking the wrong exits in my lessons.

Take it easy speed wise you should be fine with the sat nav

Alright. Thank you!

Let's hope this won't be my last post on this forum :laugh:

Stick to the middle lane the whole way

Don't overtake a cop car.:hehe:

I remember how scary that was! You just have to do it and get over the fear. You'll be fine! And if not, can I have your sat nav?

Someone want to check the traffic news???

Stay away from the xar in front. Do not exceede 70 or much less if wet. Use you mirrors but also a look back when changing lanes in case of blind spots. Keep your dipped lights on and stay safe.

...how did it go Ashley...?...

Don't exceed 70 mph - in Central London? :laugh:

I'm feeling like I should have added her to my DeathList now..

Has Ashley not been online since :worry:

I just relise how drity my mind is

..I guess she's spending time with her parents in off-line mode...

:joker::joker::joker:

To be fair, she's probably still stuck in traffic driving round central london :laugh:

I remember my first time... and it was also the last!

I'm alive! Just been without Wi-Fi... The drive was fine, especially on the motorway. I got quite annoyed going past London but managed to contain myself, then got lost in some estate before finding my Mother's house. Thanks for the advice <3

Its scary on the motorway driving fast

Have you just passed your test, I didn't think new drivers could use motorways?
