Just read on, folks, and tell me who needs to make up their mind!

Let it up slowwwwly, right. FINALLY you managed to get it right!

- C'mon , shift gears! How much petrol do you think you're wasting?   

- Why on earth do you want to shift to 3rd so soon? You think you're going to train for F1?

- Keep the car steady! Don't try to avoid them, go through the potholes, big or small. 

- Don't you have eyes in your head?  Couldn't you see that HUGE pothole?

- Swerve! What do you think the steering wheel is for?

- Don't swerve like that! You think you're riding a two-wheeler?

- Come left! You'll get stuck behind that lorry. Come LEFT! Never mind that there is a vehicle behind. Put your indicator on, and he'll move accordingly. 

-Why did you come left/right? Can't you see that vehicle coming behind you? You have to make allowances for EVERYBODY, you're the one who'll have to pay for the repairs, not them!

-Don't overtake! What's the tearing hurry? 

-Overtake him, can't you? Don't you want to get home, ever?

- Go faster.

-Don't go fast!

-Go slow. SLOW! 

-Why aren't you moving?!

- Keep the window open. You're not an expert!

- Keep the window closed. Learn to look in your rear view mirror! 

- Didn't you see him?!  You have to look out of the window too. The rear view mirror will not show everything!

- You can drive later. It's raining/ we have to park and reverse/ you have a problem following instructions! 

-Why do you want me along? Take it out yourself, can't you? You anyway don't bother to listen to me!

SO.......! Who do you think is driving who nuts? You think I could sue the husband for mental torture? * hopeful grin*

All this because lazy ol' me preferred being chauffered along, in the initial days after we both learnt driving. However now, we decided its high time I learnt to drive a car as well as I do our two-wheeler( all of our cousins- mine as well as the husband's - will attest to the fact that I do zip along pretty nattily on our two wheeler!)

And so I requested my dear husband to sit beside me while I gained some confidence.

Dunno about the confidence bit, but am sure gaining on toothache- from GRITTING MY TEETH!
