I just got back from my first driving lesson
, i took it with my neighbour who is a driving instructor for heavy vehicles (trucks). He used to be an instructor for cars up untill last year, and he still has the car he had when he was a car driving instructor, you know the ones with the double peddles.
So i used his old car, it was a late 90's Toyota Corolla in manual. Manual is hard, very hard. Drove around the back streets near my house near the Vicroads place, i ended up killing the engine like 6 times or so because i let the clutch out too soon lol.
It was also dark and it was peak hour, and even though i wasn't on a main road, there were still people coming back home, so it was quite busy, but not really. Still learning how to use the gears properly and learning not to put to much strength on the accelorator.
