Another Pass Today

Well done, GS, for passing with 6 driver faults. There will never be another one like you!

I offer my thanks to The Almighty for this pass, as it now means I won’t have to argue with you anymore about such things as when I used to have to grab the wheel because you were going too wide, it didn’t matter that you “were going to steer back” just as I grabbed it. The fact that I had to grab it at all was the issue.

Ah, yes. And when you used to approach junctions too fast and I used the dual controls, the fact that you “were going to stop” was of much lower priority than my significant concern that you had left it too late and might not. And the examiner would have seen it that way, too.

And at roundabouts, when you would insist on taking your eyes off the oncoming traffic just as a gap was appearing to stare left, and so missed the opportunity and ended up holding traffic up. Every time without fail, and then argued with me about it.

And at junctions, when you would stare blankly to the right (when turning left) – with absolutely nothing visible for miles – and then drive out without steering or looking left at all, and then argue with me about grabbing the wheel or using the brake to avoid traffic coming from that side.

And all those times when you were unable to complete a manoeuvre properly, yet when I tried to analyse why it had gone wrong you would say “I know I did it wrong so there’s no point in going on about it”. If you’d have listened you could have passed with fewer lessons, instead of having to hit on the correct procedure by trial and error.

But that’s all in the past now. Phew!
