I started my driving lessons!!!

Today was my first day driving a car... I was really, really nervous. I didn't know what to do! By the look of my face, the instructor already knew that was the first time I have driven a car. But even with all the nervousness, I think I went pretty well . I almost died but it's not a big deal... Well actually it was a great deal. I was driving, you know, I wasn't so nervous anymore and when I went to a crossroad, I saw a truck on the other street but I had the preference. So my instructor said: "You have the preference here, so just slow down and move on." I did that. Apparently the driver of the truck did the same. He didn't see me and he moved on too. But he was too fast in my direction and I was just shocked... Lucky me the instructor has the break pedal on his side too. So he stopped the car in the last minute. I was really nervous ! My instructor said: "Your fist lesson today was: there are many maniacs on the street so you have to be alert to everything." Well, it was not a good first impression of my first day behind the steering-wheel.
