This is exciting, I’m gonna be such a great driver. 2. I can’t wait to get behind the wheel. 3. Oh, I didn’t realise it would be 30 minutes learning about basic car safety. 4. Ugh, I know all of this, let me drive already! 5. I mean, how hard can it be? You just press some pedals and go! 6. Hold the phone, there’s THREE pedals?! What does the third one do? 7. Damn, I guess I’ve got some learning to do. 8. Hmm, this isn’t so bad, but the small talk with the instructor is kinda awkward. 9. Do I ask him about his interests, or should we keep the chat strictly driving related? 10. Hmm, 45 hours worth of car talk, that’s not gonna get boring.

Wait, which pedal's the brake again? 14. Oh! Not that one. 15. Ah, so that’s what the dual controls are for… 16. Oh no, I just stalled. 17. And it’s as embarrassing as I thought it would be. 18. These pedestrians need to stop staring at me, it’s not like they’ve never stalled before. 19. I’m definitely never going to do that again, stalling is so shameful.

Wait a minute, how do I actually get off the roundabout??? 22. The pressure is too much! 23. Looks like we’re gonna be going around a few more times. 24. Wait, what’s that sound? 25. Ah, I’m in the wrong gear, let me just get into the right one. 26. OMG DID I JUST GRAB THE INSTRUCTORS LEG INSTEAD OF THE GEAR STICK?! 27. This is the most embarrassing thing ever. 28. And there’s NOWHERE to hide. 29. What do I do??? 30. Should I say something? Or just act that it didn’t happen?! 31. I’m gonna go with pretending it didn’t happen. 32. Eyes on the road, I’m sure he didn’t even notice. 33. *Five minutes of silence* 34. Okay, he totally noticed. 35. Aaand now I’ve stalled again. 36. Well, at least that broke the tension. 37. Maybe I should just drive an automatic. Tap to play GIF Tap to play GIF ABC / 20th Century Fox / Via giphy.com 38. Uh oh, I just missed the turn. 39. Ah well, it happens, I’ll just take the next one. 40. Wait a minute, am I on the motorway?! 41. This is how I'm gonna die. 42. THERE ARE SO MANY LANES. 43. Everything’s going so fast, this is all too much!! 44. I hope the instructor yelling at me isn’t the last thing I hear. 45. Phew, that was a close one. 46. The motorways actually quite fun, I wanna go that fast all the time! 47. The speed limit is so annoying. I bet I could walk 20mph.

Fuck the ten and two position, I wish I could put my hand on the back of the passenger seat while I reverse, dad style. 49. But Mr Safety First instructor would never allow that kind of fun. 50. I’m actually gonna miss this guy when I pass, though. 51. “When” I pass. Lol. 52. Who am I kidding? I can’t even do a three-point turn. 53. And don’t get me started on parallel parking. 54. Ah, it’s okay, I’ll just park on quiet roads. 55. Hmm, this is actually going pretty well. 56. Wow, I’ve come so far, maybe there is a chance will pass. 57. Oh shit, I stalled again.
