Roundabouts are scary..

Today I had my first driving lesson after a 3 week break. I am still finding steering the correct way hard to get used to, but more worrysome to me are roundabouts. Britain's traffic seems to mainly consist of these confusing traffic measures.

In theory everyone supposed to know what there are doing, but Cardiff has some famous accident spots where drivers seem to just forget what they have learned prior to passing their test. I am talking about the Gabalfa roundabout.

I can only say I am glad today's lesson didn't include it, but I know it will some day. Instead I practised near Heath park and tested the mini roundabouts. Germany has mainly traffic lights – you won't find many roundabouts there. This is why it takes me some getting used to. I am still trying to get to grips with the basics of driving – mainly the steering. It's either too much or the wrong hand. Arghh. I hope I get over this hurdle. Next lesson is next week Tuesday.
