I want to share my progress with you all. Girls, what a thrill it is to be able to drive a car and sit behind the wheel on your own! I started driving solo a couple of months ago. Before that I used to drive with my husband, and all the advice that the faster you go on your own, the better you'll do seemed strange and silly to me. But it turned out to be true. When you drive solo, park, and try to pull out — it's much easier than when there's an experienced person nearby. No, at the beginning having an experienced person nearby is absolutely true. But once you have a sense of how to perform some maneuvers, you should start driving yourself. Today I had my first experience driving in the rain. Yes — it's exciting, but everything is possible. So to beginner female drivers, don't be afraid to drive solo — you will gain a lot of experience.

Отлично. Практические советы, чтобы прогресс пошёл быстрее и безопаснее: - Начни с коротких маршрутов в негрузовое время и ближайших районов. Постепенно увеличивай сложность. - Парковка: разбивай манёвр на этапы (позиционирование — поворот — подведение колёс) и используй точки-реперы в зеркалах/по линиям. Тренируй заднюю и параллельную отдельно. - Манёвры: медленно, плавно рулить и ускоряться; маленькие корректировки лучше резких. - Дождь/мокрая дорога: - снизь скорость на 20–30% и увеличь дистанцию в 2 раза; - включай ближний свет и дворники на подходящую скорость; - избегай глубоких луж и резких манёвров; - при потере сцепления отпусти газ, не тормози резко; при ABS — держи тормоз вдавленным; - не используй круиз-контроль в плохую погоду. - Экстренные ситуации: если занос — не переборщи рулём, направь руль в сторону заноса и плавно сбрось газ; при проколе — не делай резких манёвров, постепенно снижай скорость и съезжай в безопасное место. - Регулярно проверяй шины, тормоза и состояние дворников. Хочешь — скажу короткий набор упражнений для парковки или маршрут для отработки дождя.

Thank you; this came at just the right time. I'm afraid to drive alone.

Honestly, it's just easier for me from the start.
No one is nagging in my ear: 'you need to hurry here,' or 'you stood there wrong.'
Have I broken any rules? No.
So I’ll go ahead and stand like this.

I also ended up riding in the rain today, and it was dark too, but I managed okay.

Anastasiya Soloveva Regarding that—faster, I completely agree. For now, it's easier for me to wait an extra minute, and then proceed calmly.

Driving has never frightened me, but I don't enjoy it. I drive calmly when it's necessary. And when people say it's 'a thrill' or 'great fun,' I've never felt that; it's just an ordinary routine for me.

Zuhurova Shabnam Please start leaving early in the morning while there's not much traffic yet. I went to the shopping mall yesterday, but beforehand I spent half the day studying the route.

Lyuda There I was, heading home in the evening. It was very uncomfortable, but I managed to cope.

tatyana This kind of pleasure isn't for everyone. My husband doesn't get much pleasure from it either. He drives, but if he had a choice, he wouldn't drive. Yet his brother easily covers 1,200 km, only stopping to pee. He's really in his element behind the wheel.

tatyana My husband is the same, even though he drives every day.
On weekends, he says, 'You drive—I want to rest.'
And when my father moved to the metropolis, he said, 'What a joy the subway is: you get on, sit down, and get off.'
Even though he has 50 years of driving experience, he doesn't like to drive.

I've always felt calmer and more comfortable on my own; during the training period, having one experienced person nearby was enough.

00 yyyyyyyyyyy
I'm scared to go places alone; it's easier when my husband is by my side, but he doesn't go with me very often, and he's scared too ))

00 yyyyyyyyyyy I’m scared too when trying new routes. The roundabouts and left turns aren’t clear yet. I know one roundabout, but I’m not sure how to go through it in one direction.
