I am sorry for you,
When danfo , korope, Keke show u hell, you will realize why first hand experience is important

Then trailer coming from behind will intimidate you with their horn, if you no get mind na inside lagoon u go see ursef

The intimidation is the worst part. Had dt issue when i first started driving. Mind you, i went to a driving school. Dunno why those big vehicles like using the horn to scare people.

NB: i have a friend (outside lagos) who learnt to drive on youtube. He's been driving since 2018 with no issues. Na automatic sha

Who else have used online resources to professionalize on driving before?

I learned to drive a shift stick online.
But I bought my car first so learning was just too easy in an open field, then I graduated to a less busy road , in 3 weeks I become Lewis Hamilton. cool

Inability to drive has deprived me opportunity from getting a job and as I don't have money to pay and be trained by a driving school, I decided to use online resources to learn it.

Steps:

Put the car on neutral before turning it on or press the clutch pedal if it's on gear.

Start the car

Press the accelerator pedal and release your foot from the clutch pedal slowly and the car is on motion.

Press the clutch pedal again to change gear.

Press the break pedal alongside the clutch pedal to slow down and bring the car to a stop.

And so on.

With these, I pray I'm good as I am about to pick up a driving job.

Pray for me and other road users.

I can't stay jobless anymore especially with penniless pocket.

God help me.

Learning to drive on an internet is very very different from driving from real life. Driving requires you to be fit, be able to make very quick defensive driving decisions and also to be able to make evasive maneuvers in a manner that does NOT put you, your property,the other people and their property at risks. The feel of online simulation is very different from that of real life test.

Go to a proper licensed driving school please.

Oga calm down, non drivers always think nothing is hard in driving but i can tell you driving is the most risky, strenuous, breathtaking activity because any slight mistake could cost you or other people's life. Abeg, no try am o without consulting a certified driving school to take you through the driving rubrics and know-how cos when e happen na then your eyes go clear, that's only if you are alive to witness the catastrophy you have caused.

This is disaster waiting to happen, but incase you still choose to go on, don't try in on the road. Better use a football field to try the experiment so that the risks of accident will be reduced. Equally don't use an SUV or large sedan for this.

Nobody taught me how to drive. I taught myself by observing whenever I’m sorted beside anyone driving, especially my Dad anytime we out together.

Picked the vehicle one day and the rest they say, is history.

I actually knew how to drive through PS2 video games, but later on someone put me through how to drive a real vehicle, just 1 day training I became a perfect driver.

Let someone put you through within 1 day, you should be good to go..

Re: After Learning Driving On Youtube Channels, I'm About To Pick Up A Driving Job by translux(m): 12:48pm On Nov 07, 2023
But the truth of the matter is that I also learnt driving on YouTube and later got a manual transmission as my first car, I didn't drive on the road immediately, I drove through the rural areas where we had less traffic and vehicles, I made some minor mistakes on that road then until I was able to drive so good, before I could drive on the express road.

My soft advise for the Op is to get a vehicle to practice with before you can drive on the road, there is a clear difference in what you learned on YouTube and when you get to the wheel.

Our laws require that you obtain a valid drivers license before you can operate a motor car, and you can obtain one only after enrolling into an accredited driving school and passing a driving test. Best of luck.

You better look for one driving school to straighten up your head and hands with legs and get real practical driving lessons. I hope you won't be driving that car on Lagos roads ooo iff not those okada riders and danfo drivers go show you better shege. If I were to be your friend while you are driving, I will rather stay inside the booth of the car, should in case sha.

are you catching cruise or trying to crack joke



first learn how to ride bicycle on YouTube and practise it outside before trying to move your new apartment to the grave


Before I will even teach you how to drive, you will know the basic functions of car components, after teaching you, I will set theoretical exam for you, if you get 80% then we'll go to the field
The concern should not be for the Op Because he has clearly given up his freedom,as he would likely cause an accident when he takes any car out,and thus be in prison soon;the concern should be for that of the innocent lives his folly may cause to lose their lives.
Even people who were taught still need time and grace to take a car out to the road themselves,talkless of online learning!
