Tell me: Your Early Driving Experiences.
So yea got my first drving lesson yesterday.
Scared the crap outa me because the only time i've drven a car was a year ago in an empty car park for about 2 minutes.
The instructor pulled over at the side of a busy 4-lane road and started explaining the basics. Then we swapped seats and he told me to 'Go'. X_X
I was really scared but i had no choice.
I dont know what american cars are like...they don't have gears right, so no clutch? Well i managed to operate it...with an average amount of skill...
After a not-to-juttery start, i was driving along, struggling with the gears at traffic lights and crapping myself at roundabouts.
And to make matters worse, for 20 minutes there was a 20ft lorry right behind me taking up the whole rear view mirror!
It was all very scary but very fun aswell, and the instructor said i did well for my first go =P

So what are you're early driving experiences?
