That shit is easy. Read the book. Pass the test. Drive real slow and check all the mirrors every two to five seconds. Check blind spots before putting the indicator on, then check blind spots just before turning.I would be a road hazard. Not confident that I would get through the driver's test - driving instructor would be traumatised. That's if I can remember enough of what is in the K53 book to get a learner's license.
Keep both hands on the wheel at the 10:20 position. Never cross your arms. Never use just your palm on the wheel.
Don't touch the clutch unless you are changing gears.
If you can already drive, it is still worth paying an instructor for a couple of lessons. The testers stick with extreme K53, plus a bunch of other shit.
Oddly I was allowed to do the test barefoot. That is illegal in Zim, where I got my first license.
When I passed I bought my instructor a bottle of brandy, he was a really lekker guy who had retired from being a traffic cop.
He probably started drinking it on his way home... he was that kind of guy.
