I had a driving instructor helping me out a couple of months ago when I first
got my learners permit. I had learned GPL long before this. Guess what? I
didn't scare my instructor. :) Hell, according to anyone that I ask, I'm a
good driver. Looks like GPL was good for SOMETHING. :)
P.S. It was nice that we had snow one day I was out with my instructor. He had
me drive onto a deep-covered back road of my subdivision and learn a few things
about snow. First, he had me jam on the brakes as hard as I could so I would
know what anti-lock brakes sound like so I never freak out if I get on the
brakes hard. Secondly, he had me do a burnout to see if I could control the
car. :) Now, since I've had plenty of practice doing starts on GPL, I managed
this perfectly. ;)
