It just feels right when you're sitting in the driver's seat, you know? But apparently I veer off slightly to the left lane which is a big no no. And also turning omllll I keep eating the other lane AHHHHH.
I encountered the WORST drivers today. The worse one was when I was trying to turn right onto my street but this driver beeped me even though I was indicating right. I was just waiting for the road to clear for me to turn. SYDNEY DRIVERS YOU ARE THE WORSE and put me off driving sometimes smh. It makes me wonder how they even got their full license in the first place, but that's none of my business *Kermit sipping tea gif*
I've got three lessons left with my driving instructor which is actually kinda sad.

Ahh yeah staying straight in your lane takes some getting used to, I think it's because you are used to sitting in the passenger seat which is on the opposite side of the car.
With the bad drivers, you can just imagine instructers crying inside thinking about how people they may have taught have ended up such reckless/dangerous drivers :-\ This is why I live in Newcastle, there are still bad drivers but at least there aren't as many people on the roads.
Keep it up though, it will definitely be worth it when you get your Ps :D

Gave my mother and my aunt a lil tour of my university then drove to a nearby Westfield via the motorway (1.5hrs from today). Turning and brake are improving though my judgement of other drivers was very poor today. It was quite a tense drive.

I used my driving instructor's car since my mum was out with her car for the entire day. It was weird being back in his car. Brake was definitely sensitive, as well as the steering wheel.
Today's drive has been filled with many unsafe driving practices (forgive me driving gods/NRMA) due to me worrying about my auditions after the drive (I really need to stop booking driving lessons before film shoots and other film related things- it doesn't help aha). For instance, forgetting to indicate when I'm turning (IM SORRY) or stepping on the gas to avoid stopping at an intersection that's about to turn red from yellow (again, IM SORRY) or not checking my mirrors when I'm changing lanes (I REALLY AM SORRY) and most of all- parking in a no stopping zone and pressing on the hazard button to avoid getting caught (IM A DISAPPOINTMENT).
Today has been W I L D. I think it was a mixture of the fact- a) since I was back in my instructor's car, the dual brake meant I knew he had control of the car b) me being anxious about the auditions after the drive c) me being overly confident (since this is my 9th lesson) that I seem to forget all the basic stuff ie; forgetting to put down the handbrake and change into drive when I was about to start driving.
I'll be good next lesson, I swear.
But besides from that, tons of windy and steep roads today. It was a good challenge.
I'll be driving in Sydney's CBD next week. Wish me luck! I hate Sydney drivers. (which means I hate myself hohohoho hilarious)
