Finally!
Today I finally got to drive the car. After putting up the probational plate, I took over the driver seat for the first time. Co-driver is my dad and the passenger behind is none other than my mum.
Drove out to the main road and off to my grandma's place. A few rounding in her neighbourhood and next to woodleigh park(It's a private estate area up a hill off braddell road). The roads inside woodleigh park are winding and narrow so had to tackle a few difficult bends. Well, dad was like saying my steering is abit stiff. PLEASE lah, the car so big and with you seating next to me obviously stiff lah.
Drove out of the estate, and head back to bishan. Dad directed me to bishan sports stadium. There is a roundabout, slope, narrow roads and plenty of empty parking lots. Reason why he came here is to let me gauge how to maneuver the car in tight bends.
The next thing is PARKING! Okay, where are the poles? NONE! So how? Die lah. Spend most of the time there figuring out how to park the car. No poles to help, now is based on 'FEEL' and own judement. After all the practise, still can't get the hang of it. Well, have to find another time to practise again. Headed back home, this time is really parking with all the cars around. Will I hit a car? Give it all out lah! Did a few tries and finally parked the car into a lot! Phew!
Happy that I finally get to drive on the road, overall my mum felt safe and okay on the road, only sad thing is the parking of the car. Will continue to practise and attain a high level of driving experience.
