The Escapades of a New Driver.

So the 8th August was the day I passed my driving test. It's been 2 weeks since then, so I thought I'd let you know how that was going.

1.  I nearly ran a group of people over on a zebra crossing (Note to self: avoid rush hours. always.)

2.  I almost pulled out on a car when overtaking on the way to Anglesey on Monday.

3.  I starting going round a roundabout but it turns out the person on the right was a lot closer to me. I got a beep which lasted about 5 seconds. I looked in my rear-view mirror and the poor angry lady was shouting and throwing her hands around. 

Woops.

Those are only a few, but probably the worst that I can remember right now.

But, hey! They're all just experiences to learn from. As long as I don't die or kill someone in the process, it's a beneficial mistake.

Right?

Sure.

Definitely.

Oh yeah, I should also mention that my car is a faded red (so, basically pink) Fiat Cinquecento. Don't know what one is? It's this:

That's it. It's the Inbetweeners' car.

I was driving around Bangor (in Wales)  in it the other day and I can't even count how many people turned and pointed, or laughed, or gawped at the car.

Did I mention it has four yellow stars stuck on the boot too? No? well yeah - it does.
