The Driving test (before getting to the DMV)

Hello again. The driving test, sometimes easy, sometimes tuff, it really depends on how you get ready for it. Some of us, think it’s enough to know how to drive, and memorize a few signs, other try to prepare more theory than practice. Few of us, combine theory and practice.

I had a friend who failed twice, although he had three years driving experience, before coming to the USA. Reason, well, some details, such as looking over your shoulder before changing lanes is one of the tickers during the test; It is really a life saver and mandatory.

Preparing :

Here’s a link for reference and a few products which I personally find interesting.

On the link above, the DMV site is full of guidelines and documents you might find useful.

Below, I will show you two programs, I personally prefer the first one, because it’s about driving Videos, to help you prepare for the driving test.

GetReadyToPass.com (an excellent source for Driving Test Targeted videos, check it out for more details. The price is less than 30 dollars)

great-info-products.com (an excellent source for preparing the written test).

combining both will give a good set of video tutorials as well as an eBook to follow up on.

Video training is still one of the great ways to grasp the theory of the concepts we need it to apply, for successful driving.

This is the third post of humble start. Stay tuned for more on real driving tips and sharing info very very soon.

Next posts coming up :

1) The rush and urge to get to the destination, what about it ?

2) Why would I stop, road is empty, it’s even deserted ?

3) Everybody’s speeding, why picking me for the speeding ticket?

4) it was not my fault ! The difference between guilt and responsibility

5) I’m Ok, I can drive.

6) DUI

Stay tuned. Hope this blog will be helpful. Reminder, this is a warm up to a ultimately writing my first book on driving, after years of research on driving behavior and us, drivers.

Drive safe !
