Its not once you get used to it

I love it now, passed first time because I did an intensive course over a week so everything was still pretty fresh

Theory was a bastard though because I did it in such a short time.

2nd attempt. First time I was too nervous but the second, I did well. I couldn't actually live without my car ? I still don't know how I did before. I mean, the bus, the people, smoking while driving (I know it sounds random but it's a great pleasure)

I haven't bothered since I'll end up killing someone or more importantly myself.

I have had 46 driving lessons in a manual,and i have decided to go to automatic becuase i just can't cope with changing gear looking and all the other stuff you have to do where as in a automatic you get in and drive dirve drive.

Auto is not the way to drive, PJ you must learn the gears!

Oh and you don't look at the gear stick when changing..

I failed my first test when I was 18... I have had a few bouts of lessons since then (and been involved in a few accidents) bit I CANNOT reverse round a corner so I have sort of given up!

Ha ha.. I didn't actaully cause the accidents, nor was I actually driving at the time, but being involved in the accidents certainly have put me off and made me quite nervous in a car...
