(Hours 71 & 72)

Most of the driving today was on the rural roads,.. this let me focus on different speeds and bendy tracks.. it was enjoyable and it benefited me and my confidence.... I kept in pace with the high speed roads and it let me understand that I was capable of controlling the car at such a high speed.... and most importantly without fear..

As the most improved aspect of my driving has been the manoeuvres, we are going to spend less time on these and concentrate on the main roads and dual carriageways... these are the main points I need to hammer in order to lose fear altogether whilst driving on them, as it is 100% certain that a high speed road will be incorporated as part of the test. Once a minor fault has occurred, the fear kicks back in again.. so I must forget it instantly and continue regardless, since the fault cannot be undone.

Today, I have been questioned what is my fear behind driving, but I could not answer... I don't know, I just know that I do not feel relaxed when I drive and I am always thinking of what is the worst that could happen... it is unnecessary for me to think in this way, as I have already proved to myself many times that I am able to drive!!
