My driving practice today
I've been practicing driving for the past month and improvements can be seen although more practice is required. Thanks to my husband who is also my coach during all the process. You know sitting beside a beginner requires courage, because you risk your life accompanying her. Although I acquired my driving licence in China before I came to this country, I haven't gained any driving experience until recently. The reason is simple, as we did not own a car not because we cannot afford one but you know the policy does not allow. Everyone here who knows Beijing must have heard that Beijing implements a very rigid policy in regard to its residents' purchasing cars. It has been said that this measure will help relieve the air pollution since the exhausts of private cars are considered as the main contributor to the worsening air quality. However, most people,by this i mean ordinary citizens do not buy the theory of the government. They can feel the sever haze and the inconvenience of daily life without a modern transportation like a private car.
Sometimes when you write something you want to, you just follow your heart and sometimes what you write can be quite unrelated to the title or your original plan. That's what i encounter right now.LOL
Yet I am not hesitant to write down things here. For one thing, I am writing to improve my English as living in this English-speaking country you have to communicate with other people. To some extent, your English proficiency decides how much freedom you can enjoy here. For another, i have to learn driving and get my driver's licence as soon as possible as life is unimaginable without a car here.
Anyway, I would like to share my thoughts about my driving experience. First, I need more shoulder check practice while on the way. I feel that there is so much to take in when I am driving. While I am shoulder checking , my steer wheel deviates a little and that is really dangerous when the speed is fast. Second, I have to be more familiar with road signs. Also the ability to observe cars around me, particularly the one ahead needs to be improved. Quick response is required when something abnormal occur on the road.
