Driving Lessons Update: Part 2

So I signed up for the whole kit and caboodle of the driving lessons because there was really no other way to get my hands on a steering wheel since my hubs will not let me. My previous post here on the first time I got behind the wheel.

My next session was to learn the other courses, B and D which are located in a less-familiar area of the town. I have to figure out the the streets, turns, signal light changing, and speed at this one since it's goes through some school zone of sorts. Well, I'm not exactly sure if there is a school immediately nearby but the speed limit is pretty clear at 30 km/h.

I had a lady instructor this time so it was a bit different. I noticed that her English language is not as good as the previous one so we had to struggle a bit specially because she kept referring to N in Korean, 중립. It wasn't that easy at first but it made remember the Neutral on stop lights better. Another difference is she is plays too safely. Totally different with the ajussi who made me speed up not just once but a lot of times. She wasn't sure of my abilities so I guess she totally played it safe.

First day with her was the initial learning the routes for Courses B and D during the two hours. This wasn't not as exciting speeding but I did get to traverse the bigger road with 80 km/h speed limit. Next day, we did the four courses in the two hours that I had. During this session, she tried to use the tablet but I don't think it was maximized. I felt that I will fail because of not being able to understand the test instructions from the tablet. I had to sign up for another set of sessions.

Four more hours cost me an extra 220 k but I need to more confident with that table thingy which what got me in the 50 m operational test before in the first place. Luckily, it was rectified early on and I managed to pass the test in the end. During the last session before I had to take the test, the male instructor quizzed me on that turn signal audio in Korean. I had for the life of me, failed to recognize what "turn left" sounds like in Korean since my hubs just insisted on letting me listen to the video that had "right turn" or ohye-jeon in Korean. When I asked about other possible deviation on the test, he insisted that there won't be any. Hah!

Going back to the driving sessions, on to my next post.
