what is the funniest thing a learner driver has done.
what is the funnist thing you have seen a learner driver do.
mine was today on way home from work, learner driver turns left from a minor road into a major road, made the turn very nice and carried on turning up
over the pavement,  before the car was straighted up and brought back onto the road, neadless to say they took the next left turning off the major
road.
i was crying with laughing at that i know i should not as every one has been a learner.
but then again this same person could be driving down a motorway in 10 weeks have got a license without any motorway training now that is scary.

When I was learning, my instructor bought a new car, I was the first student in it, and the first time I'd driven a 5-speed car. We went down
the A38 from Exeter on a (nearly) motorway lesson, till we got to Telegraph hill.
in 5th gear starting the climb, I had to change to 4th. Missed it completely and into second - at about 55! The look on his face was priceless.
He did give me one piece of advice that has stuck with me tho: Round every country lane, there's the biggest, meanest stallion with a young girl
on it, and he doesn't like cars.....

There was an item on the local news last night about a young lad who just passed his test on a motorbike and got banned 28 HOURS afterwards for drink
driving! Apparently the shortest driving history on record!
Cheers,

she will kill me for writing this if she finds out! But my other half went the wrong way round a roundabout once whilst learning cos her insructor
told her to go right at the roundabout! ha ha! He told her she should learn with someone else after that! Obviously wasnt up for the challenge
then!

My wife's uncle, a driving instructor, asked someone to park "under that street light". The learner bumped straight up the kerb,
still doing about 20 MPH before stopping right under the light. He did exactly what he was told. Its a vit light being told "go straight over
this island"
