Dear Aliya,
I hope you're well! I'm writing to ask for some advice, because you're the only person I know who learned to drive as an adult.
I've decided that it's finally time to learn. The main reason is that my new job is in a business park that's difficult to reach by bus, and I'm tired of waiting in the cold for transport that is often late.
To be honest, though, I'm quite nervous. I'm not very confident in traffic, and the idea of driving on busy roads frightens me. I'm also worried about failing the test and wasting money. I've heard that many people have to take it more than once.
How did you start? Can you recommend your instructor? Did you go to a driving school, or did you have lessons with a friend or relative? I'd also like to know how many lessons you needed, and what you did to prepare for the theory test.
I'd be very grateful for any tips you could share.
Love,
Maya
