2nd driving lesson... A bit stressed..

As usual, i met the uncle at compasspoint.. Truely, i become a bit psycho motor in the first 10 mins of drive.. Just like what he said in the first lesson.. However, everything went fine as i regained my confidence.

Just like that, i was asked to go straight to where i do not know and never been before. First lesson was on the road with no/not much cars.. Yesterday, it was moderate traffic. Yes.. I'm doing left turns, right turns, filtering and moving off. The traffic lights were like so close.. The moment i go g3, i have to drop gear or do engine brake. Well, engine brake was easy enough cause it saved me the hassle of dropping from g3 to g2 when there's not enough time. And i went g4 finally today. If not i'll be turtle.

My car died 5-6 times today.. All cause when i finish braking, i never put neutral before i let off my clutch.. A few times is cause my instructor put g1 when i put neutral den i let off clutch and died..

My weakness so far has being moving off as i have observed and evaluated.. Cause i tend to move off too slowly, my stress piles up as i'm worried i won't make the turn or go straight in time before the orange light comes along. Twice i crossed only after the orange light lights up. Well.. Now i don't know if i'm making good progress but at least now i can drive in moderate traffic.. Maybe thats a good thing?? Haha..

My objective by myself next lesson is to do the moving off a bit better.. So that i will not be so annoyed with all the traffic lights..

Oh ya... I did right turns at dead ends and it feels like a U turn la... But ok... Its quite good.. I can do them.. No mounting..

Next time.. I'll try not to die so many times at brakes... And try moving off faster... YEA!!!

First day at driving..

Went for training at a rectangular circuit road (yea... real time road) for my first Practical lesson.. The exact location?? Farmway LRT.. There's not much car there, except for some driving centre cars.. Its cool.. Its because the car i'm driving is cool too!! Orange in colour... Interior looks like a sports car.. Ok...

First lesson.. Go around the "circuit" at gear 2 doing speed control... With my control of accelerator and brakes.. Cool... Its all left turns and so its not much of a problem.. The thing's only giving way to traffic going straight on right..

After that, its time for the changing of gears from 2 to 3.. That is.. After 5-6 rounds in gear 2.. Nice.. It wasn't so smooth at first cause first time doing ma.. SO my instructor has to clutch in for me at first and second time... And off i go doing it by myself..

Lastly, after all the gear shift practise, its time for braking... Clutch in + tapping of brake and then brake fully..

Good... Awaiting the next driving lesson... Wed...
