My first practical hour


Today my teacher made me drive backwards, having to maintain the long trailer on a linear direction on broad track and then made that track much narrower.
Then he made me "park" like all trucks do in truck-stops (backwards, of course) but at an angle marked by painted lines.

To describe you my first practical hour in a few words, I'll share with you a question my new teacher asked me today after some "rolling":

"Have you ever driven a car with a trailer before...?" and again "...are you sure you haven't?"

Like many of you know, I never have.

Later, he told me he liked quite a lot what he saw for my first practical hour!

In any case, I'll try to get someone to film me and post it in YouTube. More later!
