driver's ed
3/11/05 14:42Very, very shaky.
Dad's been taking me out driving. Seeing as I'm seventeen, by all rights I should be able to drive by now, but no. I didn't get my learner's while I was in Florida because of a course I needed to take first... which I never took, if you couldn't guess. So now I'm learning to drive, and it's kinda scary. Dad took me out on 495/95, and after getting used to driving maybe at 50 tops, that was... kinda scurry. I was just glad he kept me in the slow lane on the right... I think merging left might have been a bit much for me.
My parking's getting a little better, and while left turns on particular still make me very, very nervous, I'm not feeling quite so 'omgdie' about them anymore.
...I'm dreading the parallel parking.
Anyway, I have to get used to checking my mirrors for traffic when I change lanes... because I always feel like maybe I'm mising someone. Ee.
Later.
