Bad Driving Instructors
-
Sometimes my instructor scolds me and tells me not to do something, when for the last 5 lesson's i've been doing it without him saying anything. For example, during my lessons he taught me when approaching a red traffic light to switch down 1 gear, and then step on the brake and then engine brake when my speed is low. So on my last lesson when I did this, he suddenly got angry with me and said I should brake all the way first and then switch down to a lower gear just before I stop.. Makes me confused
Also for when I practice parking for the first time, he just set up the poles, tell me how many steering wheel revolutions I need to do and when, and just leave the car to go talk to other instructors in the carpark. Then gets angry if I don't park it straight or properly. Or sometimes he just stay in the car and plays with PDA all the time and complain when the car wasn't parked straight or I forgot what to do -
Ya lah. Who pays so much money to fail? Just pass and fcuk off. That's my attitude.Originally posted by 105090:school instructors some also tell u to do what u want after pass, but when learning, its law-by-law
after all, its very true that u are there to pass.. all those bad habits are actually gained through the driver itself or other road user.. -
Change to 1st gear for stopping? tell him go eat shit lah...stopping maximum 2nd gear leh, also can brake & change lower gear at the same time.Originally posted by Elysium7:Sometimes my instructor scolds me and tells me not to do something, when for the last 5 lesson's i've been doing it without him saying anything.

got 1 school instructor, teach or talk so fast, i can't even understand a bloody word he's saying sia..its an old geezer, i prefer younger instructors, they teach or talk more clearly -
haha, i believe he meant shift down 1 gear. not shift to 1st gear.Originally posted by SniperWolfe:Change to 1st gear for stopping? tell him go eat shit lah...stopping maximum 2nd gear leh, also can brake & change lower gear at the same time. -
my instructor is damn fierce, but because of tht hes good.. he shouts and hurl profanities in hokkien, mandarin, english etc but thats when u make some serious mistake nearly causing accidents.. overall my friends and i hate him, but he's good.
