How Long Did You Learn Driving. by xtervaganza(m): 10:33pm On Oct 08, 2020
It may appear like I'm lying but I learned driving for just an hour. I actually drove the car to the person who initially was supposed to teach me driving two hours prior. He was even very angry when he saw me at the wheels that why I was fooling him that he should teach me driving when I could do it already.



Till date no one believed me. Even the guy who taught me driving said I had been driving b4.



So question is; how long did it take you to learn driving b4 you could drive all by yourself alone

Automatic: I learnt by watching others drive and I started driving myself by stealing dads key and sneaking out with the car when I was a teenager.

Manual: My mechanic taught me how to work the clutch in 1 hour.

It took me three days to learn how to drive and it was a manual car.

If you want to drive a car = Manual

If you want a car to drive you = Automatic.

I hope all those of you that are so proud you learnt to drive in an hour actually took time to learn traffic rules. there's no shame in taking time to learn how to drive properly. It's also not a thing of pride that you can move an automobile from one point to another

I find this very profound! But really, do Nigerian people value road signs and traffic? When I was driving along airport road in Benin City, I was always laughed at for driving in an orderly manner, people were using their horn to finish me grin

I understand you but the truth is:
It is not a must.
You learnt with manual and it was useful for you doesn't mean that it will be useful for another person.
Some people won't drive manual by choice and there is nothing wrong with that.
No one is right, no one is wrong. Everyone's life is different.
