Lesson Fourteen

With my theory test looming at only a week away it would be fair to say I'm pretty nervous.

But passing my theory test means booking my practical test and anything that gets me closer to driving is worth the worry, right?

This week I did a bit of independent driving and dual carriageways.

Dual carriageways involve 70mph overtaking *palpitations* 

THE most important thing I learnt this lesson is to check your blind spot!! 

Independent driving is tricky especially when you're not used to the area you're driving in.
Concentrating on all of the signs and lanes as well as a million other factors simultaneously is just another complication! (Just as I thought it was getting easier!) 

I've got two weeks off lessons now because of exams, which gives me lots of time to practice in my own car and a chance to try and sort my manoeuvres out. Urgh.

It's nearly summer and to be able to drive by then would be amazing. 

However, even if I did pass, the next problem is my colossal insurance appreciation ew. 

After paying for my last insurance, driving lessons, MOT, service, petrol, tyres and road tax my savings account is feeling a little light. 
Donations anyone? 

Looks like the next few months will be filled with working and driving. Not all bad I guess! 

Don't forget to check out my main blog: Being 17


Let me know any of your driving experiences or any questions you might have about getting started! 

'til next time
