Story time:
The first time I took my driving test, the evaluator said ‘pull out of your parking space’, which I did very precisely, stopping at the street where the test started.
Then he said ‘turn right at this street’, so I did – and made the semi-truck coming down that road lay on his horn a bounce a bit to avoid hitting me. I failed before we even started.
I was so focussed on his instructions that I lost all situational awareness.
I took more classes, then spent a few years as a delivery driver, so I actually learnt to be a very good driver. But my first test was abysmal.
I got my license at the sweet young of age of 38. A year or two later, I got a job at the dmv. Everything in that post, and a lot of these comments, are fucking hilarious AND relatable.
As i tell people all the time, stay with it, your gonna get your license. (Ok some people I do tell them how to get a bus pass, but thats few and far between)
