I wouldn’t waste a penny paying an instructor for his time and car. I learnt in my own car and passed in my own car…………. :hidban:

Random, I would ask daddy to teach you, that way you'll save allot of money, which is helpful for the jilbab sale

i ddnt know u could do intensive driving course... sounds like a good idea.. im taking lessons and im so rubbish :( i dnt think one hour a week is very effective for me.

[tux08902]

Where do you live bro? I took a driving course with six two hour lessons. Then I got my driving permit. As per New Jersey law, sixteen year olds with permits need to practice driving for six months before they can get a restricted license at age seventeen, and a full license at age eitheen. The course worked for me. Although, I must say that my instructor didn't teach me parallel parking very well. My Dad taught me that.

[perfectpearl]

Driving is practice! Just drive a lot with who ever and u will master it! Its all about practice, nothing else. :up:

Just force your mother or father to come in the car with u like at least 2 hours a week or even 1 hour for maybe like 4 weeks (if ur not good more) and u will do fine inhsaa Allah!

I did the same thing! My instructor tought me that whole rrr and dll or something like that for parelel parking so it really made it easy for me. Plus I never had a situation where I actually parallel parked! NJ sucks doesnt it. In some other states u get ur license a lot earlier than that!

[angel*]

Mmmm i rmrbr when i was learninig *shudders* thought id never get the hang of parking the rst was o..k..... lol i passed on me 2nd time tho:p You just need a lot of parctise thas all.

i agree that practice makes perfect but my dad drives a 7 seater and there is no way im getting behind the wheel of that car... and my brother probably wont let me even fiddle with the gearbox of HIS precious car! but my best frend has sed she would let me practice with her car just before she sells it off lol

[MMS]

randomm we in the same situation :crying: i had quite a few lessons like last year, i did roundabouts n everything :D

n then i got busy with uni and now i gotta start learning again from tuesday :nervous: my rents r pushing me but i aint all that interested in driving :(

coz i know ima marry a millionaire who will obviously have a chauffeur :rolleyes: so like ther aint really a point in learning but they dont understand :crying:

I have, and yes it's absolutely terrifying. One trip is particularly vivid, we were going from Jeddah to Makkah in a taxi with a beddu driver.

He was a brilliant driver, except that he didn't understand what lane discipline or speed limits meant, seemed to think that the brakes were an emergency measure and that the steering wheel was a decent place to put a newspaper.

His method of overtaking was particularly interesting. He'd zoom up behind somebody (driving easily over 100) to within a few meters, flash his headlights until they got annoyed and moved out of the way, then overtake and whilst overtaking turn around to the driver he's just overtaken, gesticulate violently and mouth off a few insults before turning back to see where his car's got to :rubeyes: :rubeyes:

Crazy, still love it everytime though!

lol and i thought my best frend's driving was bad! actually it is, she's knocked over two people, a pedestrian (he landed right on my side of the windscreen which smashed to a thousand smithereens - twas the most horrific day of my life) and a cyclist. alhamdulillah they were okay tho!

lol i stalled on commercial road which is just as bad i guess, but i had a van driver honking at me so then i stalled again and then the traffic lights went back to red. that musta really annoyed him.. serves him right!

and last week some guy was about to come out of his parking space as i was driving past and he shouted "LEARN TO DRIVE!" duh, what does the L plate look like? even though he's the one in the wrong.

I drive an automatic now, it’s wicked compare to a manual and it has cruise control so I don’t get flashed by cameras anymore. :hidban:

I recommend any Muslim to display that CD with the travelling dua on it, many brothers and sisters have given me way, allowed me to come in there lane and so on :coolbro:

[Al Qadr]

ya dint know? :D where do i sound like i'm from? Have i got a yorkshire accent? :p

Noo. I dunno. I thought maybe outside London but not North. Yayy :D

Oh there are 2-3 week courses, but I think you have to pay them upfront, and what if you get a crap instructor? :S But it seems better than 1 hour/week.

When I first started it was around 10 per hour, that was 4 years go, and now its 25 + :rubeyes:

And in Scotland, where I had my test because availability for the test date in London takes 3 months or longer, I heard you don’t pay car hire fee for the driving test, and you only pay for an hours lesson on test day, which is goooooood

:fastcar::fastcar::fastcar: vroom vroom

Sister, I personally wouldn't recommend those intensive courses.
Its (learning to drive) not something you should rush, it takes time to get everything right. What you need is a good instructor, ask around and make sure you feel comfortable with him/her. When you've found an instructor, take about 2 lessons a week, no more than that.

Sister, are you good with the clutch? Once you have perfect clutch control, you’re laughing.

Wa Alaykumus Salaam

It's true though...Women drivers scare me :nervous:...To be fair, you do get bad male drivers too...Not as bad as women drivers though :coolbro:

:salams

lol i dont think u can divide it into men and women.. PEOPLE usually are good or bad drivers.. ma bro thinks he can drive already and hes never had a lesson in his life :rolleyes:

Sister, I personally wouldn't recommend those intensive courses.
Its (learning to drive) not something you should rush, it takes time to get everything right. What you need is a good instructor, ask around and make sure you feel comfortable with him/her. When you've found an instructor, take about 2 lessons a week, no more than that.

Sister, are you good with the clutch? Once you have perfect clutch control, you’re laughing.

Ws.

:salams

yeh but i can practice like all 2 weeks cant i... that whole instructor thing is so long, cos u learn sumt 1 week and by the next week u forgotten like 75% of what u learnt so its like this proper slow learnin curve... where as with intensive u can just shoot right up n be :hidban::hidban::hidban:

n erm... no i suck at the clutch thing, like i'll do anything i can to avoid changin gears :embar: but outta all ma lessons i remba i only stalled like twice :D

i so avoided this thread but then decided to come in , lol , i failed my test boohoo ... and now cant be bothered to book another one !

:salams

lol aw inshaAllah u'll easily pass the next 1, but go book it man!!!!!!! while ur all still fresh, what u fault on?

i passed when i was 17, ma mama pished me tho like, but was worth it.

i didn't take intensive, or i would flopped!

just take 2hrs worth of lessons rather than 1, i had 1 lessson a week for 3months and it sucked!

i had to do my test in loughton essex, oh my have you seen the country lanes and the amount of space you have and AND AND YOU HAVE TO DRIVE DOWN THEM AT 60MPH SUBHANALLAH...Now it's a breeze though:D

random i hated driving lessons because my instructor was so friggin strict but thats the best thing because when it comes to your test it will be relaxing like my one and you'll actually enjoy it :D

Anyone have any tips to control road rage, seriously driving in east ldn i begin to have serious rage in me, whereas in essex people are a lot more considerate.

I learnt by my brother who guided me for 3 days, an hour each day, and then he went abroad, later I went to a driving school but surprisingly I drove very well that I felt I shouldn't need to waste my time and money on the instructor so I didn't go to them later.
Lately 2 of my sisters learnt driving from a driving school but they both didn't try on our car, once I let one of them to try but she couldn't handle the gear and clutch system and that was night time so I said, 'try in the daytime' but daytime hasn't come yet for her to drive our car. I'll probably take them someday out to help, but you know that's a headache. And I think ladies shouldn't drive because they are very 'dangerous' on the driving seat, o my God, don't ask me, I personally have suffered from their driving a few times, so who knows better.

Here in Pakistan, you don't have any rules of driving, like you can go anywhere, hit anyone, you only have to be quick in running, but when I went to the UK I asked my bro to let me drive and he did, but at the same time he was telling me about the bus lane and stuff, but that was quite easy and even he praised my driving, like the first time he was instructing in Pakistan, he said, 'You have a good hold of the steering wheel', Alhamdu Lillah.

I was kidding there, lol, because at the same time I have seen equal number of expert lady drivers, better than me. And you know what, there are times when I drive very quick, fast too, but quick means I take sharp cuts, overtaking, or like when it's a traffic jam, that gives me fun, accelerating for a second and applying brakes, it makes me happy, dodging others, uttering audible sounds, but at the same time safe, it's like I know where my car goes, the car becomes part of my body.

And yeah, you should learn it, its fun driving and at the same time it's important because maybe Allah forbids you can drive at the hour of emergency.

[Saeed Al-Muslim]

In a few weeks, very very soon the number of questions in the theory test is going to increase from 35 to something in the region of 60. So it would be best to get the theory out the way as soon as.

I'm 23, and I too need to learn how to drive. The reason I haven't done it thus far is simply because I have no interest in cars.
