Title: Driving is bad for my head
Post by sandie99 on Dec 11^th, 2007, 7:07am

Back in here one has to take part in 3 different teaching sessions to get a driver's licence. I've done the basic part, the dark/night time driving and today I begun the last part.

It's been a while since I've been driving, so I was absolutely terrified! I managed to get the most stress out before the economical driving test begun, but I was still bit scared and tense.

The test itself went nicely - in fact the teacher said that that my score was excellent. :) I'm happy about that.

The test ended just in time, because a moment longer, I would have been in trouble: as soon as I left the driving school, I got hit. :( It must be a result of all the fear and tension...

I have been lucky; I have been ch-wise PF over a month and I don't think that this will lead into another cycle. I have the second part of ice/slippery driving education left and that will take place tomorrow.

PF days to all,
Sanna

Sanna, you will ace the test. So sorry the beast came to visit, hope it was a fluke hit. PFDAN to you. :)

Sanna,
Good luck with the rest of your test. I know you'll do just fine.
I wish we had more "slippery driving" education for our driving students here, since there is a lot of need for it. Again, good luck!

Thank you Barry & Patti! :)

If the news are correct, then there's a chance that tomorrow this whole city will be a slippery/ice test rank, because it's supposed to be getting colder. Let's just see. The test begins at 12 and ends at 16.30, so it will be a long, long day.

Good luck Sandie. You sound like you're gonna do just fine.

Sorry....I couldn't resist..... ::)

Good one, Charlie. ;;D But you know what, I didn't "kill" even the crash test dummy during the test - I stopped waaay before it. And I came second at our "race"; I was the second quickest to stop when we drove 60 km/ph - and the winner had ABS brakes in his car, so really I won... ;)

During the slippery rank, we drove at 2 different situations. The first part went just fine, but I felt shadows coming in the middle of the second part. During my wait I tried to find the caffeine tab I had with me, but I didn't find it until I had finished my part and waited for the others to finish at the parking lot. Then the shadows had turned into a hit. I tried to end it with snow - there were some next to the parking lot. It actually helped a bit, and I didn't care what the others thought; I'll never see them again.

So, now it's done. Now all I need to do is to sit through 3 hours of driving theory and I'm done. Then my 2 year driver's licence will turn into a permanent one. :)

Sanna... good for you... I knew you could do it!

The written exam will be a breeze for ya!

way to go at using the snow to dump the beast!

with warm regards,
Tony

Tony, thank you.

And as far as I know, there won't even be a test anymore; I did two of those (computer test and driving test) during the basic part. So, I'll just need to sit for 3 hours in a classroom and listen when one of the teachers will talk how we can drive safely and economically and protect the environment while we're at it. Piece of cake! ;;D

Way to go Sanna!!! [smiley=thumb.gif] So sorry you got hit but good call using the cold snow. I bet you made some of the others look when you did that, but hey, we do what we have to do, right?

I walk around work sometimes with a frozen water bottle on my neck and do not think anything about it anymore, really don't care what others think! ;)

Just wanted to say congrats to you!! :)

Thank you, Barry! :)

Yes, we do what we have to... The teacher did ask me if I had something in my eye... ;;D So I told him a short version of ch.
