(((((((Raynaadi)))))) Thanks. It was scary, I wish I'd stopped. Thanks, but like I said before further up the thread, the car wasn't that close - I probably would have time to stop. That's good any police officer would look at the whole picture...nobody's ever told me about learner drivers and the law, actually, is it the learner's fault entirely or also the person with them?

It is hard - as I've complained to my instructor before, you need about 6 pairs of eyes to see everything you're supposed to be looking out for! And fast reactions, and the ability to think quickly and come to the right decision, and the ability to know what drivers around you are likely to do next and you have to allow for any mistakes they make...I don't know how anyone can do it. Dad isn't my teacher - I have a driving instructor - but we got a small car recently that I can go out to practice in with dad between lessons. The instructor's said that he thinks it's helping, but then he sends me on harder routes...

Thanks again.
