Today I faced my biggest fear.
The HUGE roadworks roundabout near my house. Yes- I stalled but I made it!
This lesson we focused on junctions and emerging.
This involved driving round and round a housing estate down every road and every turning practising junctions.
I learnt how to do a controlled role which involves switching to 1st gear and rolling to the edge of the junction in order to see better.
I only stalled once which I was pretty proud of! The pressure of other traffic being around is ridiculous.
I literally have no idea what I'd do without my instructor having pedals too. Ah.
I'm getting used to changing gear without looking at the gear box now! Which means I'm not constantly driving into the kerb.
I also encountered my first hill start. This involves remembering to do so many things at once!
All in all it was a pretty successful lesson- just need to keep practicing!
Next lesson next week!
'til then,
Hannah
