Q: I JUST got my permit the other day--and so today, I BEGGED my mom to let me drive out of our parkway---yeaaaah didn't turn out so well because I had NO FRICKIN' clue what I was doing. She kept yelling at me--and it scared me! I know this sounds incredibly hilarious because I'm laughing about it now--but I was REALLY scared. Anyway, tomorrow I'm driving around tomorrow at driver's ed and I don't want the instructor to think I'm an idiot. I have NO EXPERIENCE whatsoever. Today (with my mom) was the FIRST time in my life I have sat in the driver's seat and put the keys in. I didn't even know how to put the key in until my mom told me. I NOW realize that BRAKES are the most important thing EVEEEEEER. Does anyone have any tips for me tomorrow..so I don't look stupid? PS. I'm 16! :) Thanks!!
The drivers ed person already knows you dont have any experience, but tell him again before you actually start driving. He'll start from the beginning, and ask questions if your confused about anything.

Dont worry, everyone starts out really bad! He has a break on his side of the car too, so if you mess up he can save you both from dying. =)

Good luck.

thanks for the reassurance :)
