Driving

I'm an OK driver. I've really only gotten a couple of fender-benders and I've never gotten tickets other than some parking tickets. My record is good, but it took me a while before I learned to drive using stick shift comfortably. I also failed my driving test once.

My co-worker came along with me to practice driving the 12 passenger van. Since today was my first lesson, I just drove on small streets in a residential area. I couldn't go faster than 15 mph at first...It is sooooooo hard to gauge the width of the vehicle. I actually drove on La Brea for about 200 yards to get to the gas station. whew!

I don't like driving that van...at least, for now...I guess I just have to get used to it.
