h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Hooray! Now that I've passed my driving test they're gonna let me loose on the motorway. I'm starting the first hour of my pass plus on Friday which should be rather hilarious. Even better than that is it's a Fiesta. I'm used to driving a VW Polo so on top of trying to figure out how you actually drive on the motorway, I've got to get used to a new car. Just keep your loved ones off the road every Friday for the next six weeks. Unless I fail that is. In which case I'd advise you to keep them off for twelve instead whilst I re-sit. YOU'VE BEEN WARNED. I can not be held responsible for any fatalities or minor bumps.

You can't fail a pass plus, it's impossible!

Besides, six weeks is OTT for such a thing anyway, unless of course the instructor doesn't know your driving abilities in the first place (which I'm assuming they will as it is most likely the instructor you were using before right?).

So therefore I'm expecting you to have done it in three weeks tops, and if that isn't so then there'll be trouble. Right!

Wrong! My driving instructer wasn't overly impressed with the idea of doing Pass Plus with me. Don't know why. So I decided to phone the guy that taught my next door neighbour since he's cheaper and will pick me up from home. I would have liked Joyce to have taught me but for the few lessons that I'll need it seemed easier to get this other bloke to do it. So it probably will take the full six sessions to do it since he doesn't know where my strengths and weaknesses lie, and plus I haven't driven a Fiesta since Chris Taylor. Which, if your memory doesn't serve you, was more than two years ago. Besides, I'm in no rush 'cause there isn't a car for me to drive. May as well take my time.

Hey my names Tigger and Ive not long ago passed my test (14th September) so better watch we dont bump into eachother on the roads literaly.

How's being free on the roads so far? Im quite cool Im the first of my friends to drive so I wind them up when its pouring with rain and there stuck in town at the bus stop and I drive passed

Hi! I've read 'your space' and found out that you in Swindon which is virtually the other side of the world compared with where I live in Lancashire. On that basis we probably won't come in to contact on the roads so I reckon we're both safe.

Wish I had a car but I can't afford one 'cause I'm a skint student. One day I'll have enough cash to purchase an old banger so unril then I'll just sit back, wait and cadge lifts off my mates.

Ta for coming to my page. See you around.
