Step 2: Practice, Practice, Practice<\/strong><\/p>\n

When it comes to the road test, you really need two months of on the road driving experience to gain enough confidence and expertise. The basic requirement is fifty hours of training including ten hours in the night.<\/p>\n

Key Rule<\/strong><\/p>\n

The important rule is to drive. Get your spouse in to the passenger seat and take charge of the driving. Of Course, your spouse is going to be your driving coach.<\/p>\n

It is better to think all the scoldings and screamings from the spouse as the suggestions of the coach, instead of getting irritated (which we all do daily :)).<\/p>\n

Your spouse is an experienced driver (Probably got a couple of tickets already :)) and is going to guide you perfectly than any other private trainer.<\/p>\n

Car controls<\/strong><\/p>\n

Get acquainted with the basic controls of the car, which my seven-year-old already knows well.<\/p>\n

Some of the first actions once you are seated. Starting the engine, wearing a seat belt, adjusting the rear-view and side mirrors, checking everyone is buckled up, see the gas level, music level and temperature level in the car, and so on.<\/p>\n

Adjusting the seat height and distance from the accelerator and breaks is must every time for me. My physical measurements are different than my spouse so I have to make the adjustments every time. My car has this cool feature of setting the seat positions and with a press of a button your seat is back to your required level. Voila!!<\/p>\n

Practice on Road<\/strong><\/p>\n

Back to the road practice, I made this mandatory that whenever we get out to a store or a friend’s place, I would drive with my husband’s guidance. Once you get a learner’s permit<\/a><\/strong>, you can drive with an experienced driver in the passenger seat.<\/p>\n

Instead of spending separate time for practicing driving, it is better to drive whenever you go out. Of Course, this is risky but you have to take the chance to drive more. That’s the only opportunity to get more driving experience.<\/p>\n

Next step is to take the road test<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
