yeah, these first few days is what decides your driving habits for your whole driving career!

me, i got the habit of one hand on wheel, one hand on gears, i never use two hands on wheel!

Driving since nov 07, so almost a year! it is funny to look back and see how much driving styles change for driving with an instructor to driving by yourself.

And when you go to festivals with car parks in fields, you can practice your handbrake turns!  :laugh:

No, actually you should concentrate on getting used to driving on your own for a while, and enjoy it.
