My first Car would be delivered on Saturday... I don't even know why I'm creating this thread but I am overwhelmed.

I started my driving class about 2weeks ago and I'm close to graduating grin.

I am excited... Errrm so what's next after the car comes... Please don't ignore this post o

Car gurus, just hold my hand and guide me through biko.

My few fears are :

1How would I know when the car needs help?

2,.What would I do if I am stucked in the middle of the road

3.How so I avoid them 'Kazeems'

4.Where would I get affordable competent mechanics

Errrmm... What else sef my heart is just doing gbim gbim angry

Just an advice make sure you check your rear differential oil. You have a 4 wheel drive Toyota Matrix there. Congrats again

Good advice.

I suspected it was 4wd when I saw the front skirts? but I wasn't sure.

Sure you can use your learner's permit to drive but an experience driver must seat beside you at all time. Hope you can drive very well because if you use the car to learn, there may be dents and scratches here and there.

If you insist that you're through with your driving class then I think you can drive on your own.

At a check point; Proof of payment/ application for driver's license is more tenable than learner's permit and cover note.
Because, with learner's permit:
There must be an experienced driver with valid DL by your side
L sign in front and behind vehicle
No passengers too.

my sister, the only important thing here is your safety and that of other road users

It take about 2 year to be a good driver, be careful

I will suggest you enrol for the driving lesson again until you can control the steering & car effectively without being directed on what to do.

You need not be so much in a hurry as the car is already yours & you will have plenty of time to drive her around. Remember it will cost you more to fix the car or even replace it if anything happens.

Learn until such a time you have confidence to drive on the express & city then you get a friend to guide you for just a week or so before you are left on your own.

A lot of people will tell you they learnt to drive by hitting the road with their cars, & no wonder we have so many drivers who just move the car & clearly have no knowledge of what roads signs mean.

It pays to learn the right way & do the right thing. Don’t just fall in line but be more creative in your approach.

Congratulations just make sure you use 5W30 synthetic for your oil servicing and get original oil filter.That should last you like 4 to 5 months.Then dont let anyone remove your thermostat and permanent fan.You wont be stuck in the middle of the road,but if you do keep calm and exit vehicle safely then call for help.Affordable and competent mechanics is like looking for 10k room in sheraton.
