I was shouted at this morning
...because I was driving the new car and kept missing 3rd gear, putting it back into 1st instead:cry:
I think this was terribly unfair, as I've not even passed my driving test yet ( I've got my theory test tomorrow though, wish me luck)
Luckily I found out today that I perfectly capable of parallel parking, despite never actually having done it before:D

Drivers get stressed easily, expect more shouting, just put some tunes on and ignore em :)

What sort of car is it? Most decent cars have something clever in the gearbox to stop that from happening :pinch:

and how many times did you lose the gear to achieve that :hooray:
Re: I was shouted at this morning
everyone else is a terrible driver, you are the only person who can drive properly - never forget that :no:
Re: I was shouted at this morning
True that. You always have to assume that is the case.
...except the guy that mowed down Seedler, I'd like to meet him/her and buy them a pint :smilie4:

Dropping from 2nd to 1st after speeding up to go to 3rd gives the gerabox a good workout and is therapeutic for the neck muscles
:unsure:

I think if Skweeks does that in the new car the shouting will stop and all will go very quiet indeed.
