  1. If you do what I tell you you won't have to go to a school to learn how to drive.I was horrified at how the driving schools taught my four kids and wouldn't let them go for their licenses until they passed MY tests.

    The schools allowed them to go out on the road before learning the driving laws, then just let the  go flat out on the highways. The way the schools taught them they would never have passed a parking test.

    First get a copy of the Florida drivers handbook from DMV. Study it until you can pass any question they ask.You can do this while you are doing  what is below.

    Next, on a Saturday or Sunday find a high school with a large  empty student parking lot.  Have a friend or relative drive you there. Get a bucket, fill it with sand and stick a four or five foot stick in it, straight up. Find a clear curb and put the bucket the width of a car from the curb.

    Drive your car past the bucket with your rear bumper about a foot away and even with the stick.Stop.

    Turn the wheel all the way to the right, look carefully to the rear that there is nothing behind you and back the car until the pole is lined up with the center of the right windshield wiper.Stop.

    Turn the steering wheel until the wheels are straight. Again, checking the rear that there is nothing behind you, back up, checking the front horizon that you are going straight.. When the right headlight is lined up with the stick, stop.

    Turn the wheel to the left all the way, then , checking the rear, back in. If you have done it right you should be 3- 6 inches from the curb,.You will pass any parking test and fit in any test space.

    You may have to adjust your markers somewhat to be perfect, but you will be close.

    Next, the parking lot will have a l-o-n-g line down the center of the lot with stripes for parking spaces across it. Try driving down that long line with your right wheel on it all the way. Have a friend watch  and coach you until you can do it consistently. When you can do it, try backing up all the way on that same line.until you can do it consistently.

    Everything above is important, because you will learn where the corners of your car are so that you can drive in heavy congested traffic easily with no problems.

    My four kids  did all the above and aced their driving test. They have been driving for many years without tickets or chargeable accidents.

    You can do it too and save the cost of driving school, with better results.


  2. (option 1)  get a PlayStation and a copy of Gran Tourismo.

    (option 2)  i guarantee there's a driving school somewhere near where you live, check your phone book or search the web.
