I'm taking my driving test on friday...

I think the US just are not intelligent to use roundabouts :) hehe

All you have to do is look right and give them the right of way. Its that simple!

Its not the getting on ...its the getting off:D

Ever seen National Lampoons european vacation????
 
Ahh, so my test is tomorrow and I'm getting really nervous.

Could I get some encouragement and motivation?

(PS there are no roundabouts here, so I don't have to worry about those)
 
The best advice i can give you is try to relax i know it sounds obvious but its true.

You would`nt be in for your test if your instructor did`nt think you could pass so if he has belief in you have a little in yourself:D

good luck
 
Same here, I used to put Bailey's (or a cheap alternative :D) in my coffee on days I had a speech to give, couple years back. Hahaha

Naw, but just stay cool and pay attention. You will do fine!
 
A little shot of Bailey's always helps me with nerves and doesn't smell too alcoholic.

Mmmmmmm for a driving test? Man, driving in the US would f uck me over completely...Everything is the complete opposite! accident waiting to happen...And oh Good Luck for Friday

Ditto for me in Australia. Everytime I wanted to turn, I ended up turning on my wipers. My Aussie friends said the same thing happened to them when they came to the US.

Yeah I'm Australia too and its funny you should mention that because my Mother owns a Saab and she use to turn on the wipers all the time when she went to indicate lol - Because it's a European car.
 
Congratulations! Your parent's auto insurance just went up by $1000.

Hehe...

Well, I'm a good student, female and over 18 so it's not going to go up that much. :D

But yeah, I'm so glad it's over. I'm still kind of in a state of disbelief. I was able to celebrate by going out for ice cream with my mom.



Oh, and the new avatar is my/my mom's car, but I get to drive it tomorrow!

so the fact that you are female has something to say? They tried that over here too, think it ended up with a court case since it is a pretty clear case of discrimination IMO.
Needless to say, it's not like that anymore.

Really? I thought women had lower insurance rates...
 
may be so in the states, but not in Norway. It is ridiculous that women would pay less, and is just another proof of how everyone in the world seems to categorize everything into male and female groups. I never speed and I'm a better driver than most, why the hell should I be punished because other guys are reckless drivers? They would punish me only based on the fact that I am male. Why should the few females out there that are reckless drivers get away with it? I don't think we will ever have equal rights when the people in charge continue to make it so obvious that they have no idea what they are doing. they talk about equal rights, then they make stupid rules like this, or rather, they don't punish the people who do

Rant over, sorry to hijack your thread :p
 
Insurance is one area where there is widespread "profiling". Your age, gender, grade point average (students), credit score (yes, credit score), and home zip code all affect your insurance rates. Is that fair? No, but apparently legal and a widespread practice here in the US.
 
Congrats!!!
