Haha, if we recall our learnin days... the funny things we can do hor, compared to now! think if i am an inst hor, i surely will laugh the whole day one... coz i so keep laughin at my own silly mistakes... so silly my inst so couldn't control himself n laugh at me so...
  
  Me stoppin the whole car, coz coz... there is a small black mynah on the road, n i am fraid to knock it down... twice...
  
  Me drivin on the road in the beginnin, n my fastest at tat time is only 35km/h coz i dun dare to go faster then tat...
  
  Me stoppin to give way to a pedestrian, but did not wave my hand to ask them go, jus stop there. n kana signal by the pedestrian to go first...
  
  Me tremblin till my inst can see my leg shakin...
  
  I was taught the s-course all e pointers, but each time i do it, i managed to do it differently...
  
  I managed to somehow jerk the car when he drinkin coz i stress, n caused my inst to choke...
  
  I was in school learnin and i took total of 60 lessons, 100mins each... i took a total of 3 lessons to master my slope... was told by my inst i was one of the student who took so long... haha...

  my learning day was almost as bad as you but instead of driving slowly, i just keeping speeding but dont even know how to brake. need the instructor to jam the brake for me.
  
  The good thing is that i used 30 lesson to pass my test but the tester was the worst i ever seen so far, have a zhong gong look and cant even speak properly..

  Think some of the instr can "hop" from car to "car"...
  e.g. today he using Car 23 to teach you, tml he use car 76...
  and somemore I have experienced same car but diff. instructor before..
  It's easier to identify Instrs using their Instr. ID I guess?

  hahahaha! thats funny!
  me... my instructors were either very quiet but gripping the handle above the door very tightly, or screaming at me. but must thank them, becos of their yelling at me, i learned to take it easy, and managed to pass my test 1st try. haha.
  will never forget, 1st on the road lesson, i outraced an Integra Type R into a corner.

  Hmm, didn't see that part of the topic... I didn't stop for the birds...but actually I erm horned @ them (well, road was clear and I didn't wanted to stop OR run them over and the birds didn't seem like they were willing to leave the bread [or some food that was scattered on the floor])
  
  But then..haiz, now still L-plate awaiting second attempt for double L

  On my first practical lesson in BBDC....
  
  Inst : "Why do you take up driving?:
  Me : *pondering*
  
  before i give him an answer,
  
  Inst : "Becos driving in car is relax, comfortable right?"
  Me : "Yes"
  Inst : (with a very stressed look) "But do you know, i sit in your car until i feel like vomiting.... "
  Me :
  
  but still, i managed to finished the course in 14 lessons and passed on 1st attempt. Hhehe
