A couple days ago... NN had her first behind the wheel training. The first 2 of her minimum 6 hours before she can take the road test. She came back all smiles and self-deprecating, which is fine and expected.
Then today... when going to pick up SW from practice... I let her drive while riding on the driver side. Gave her a few tips on braking, accelerating through turns, drifting... but goodness gracious... it was scary as heck!!!
I tried to act calm... knowing if I get frustrated or mad... she'll start getting frustrated and mad. She's flustered. She's not fully listening and comprehending. I have to limit my words...cuz it'll overwhelm her. She actually doesn't know all the driving laws and right of ways. She definitely doesn't know etiquette or the unwritten rules. In the end... she crashed out. We all survived... on our very first trip around the block!!!
Woohoo!!!
