Early morning lessons

This is just a piece of advice for people that are commencing or in the middle of completing their EDT lessons with a view to passing the driving test. Time your lessons very well.

About 4 weeks ago, I had my 7th EDT lesson with my instructor at 9am on a Saturday morning. As it was the weekend, I wasnt in much of a rush so I woke up at about 8am and made myself a delicious sausage and egg bagel and a coffee before running out the door for the driving lesson.

It proved to be a wasted lesson, however, as I had forgotten the effects that coffee has on my body. Rather than focusing on the road and improving my driving, I spent the last 30 minutes of the lesson focusing on keeping my cheeks clenched so that I wouldn't absolutely destroy the inside of this lad's car.

Had the worst happened, my Logbook would have finally earned its namesake as it is the only wiping material I had close by.

Let this be a warning to all others, there is more to think about when you get into an instructor's car for an hour than your driving or the road.
Drive safe.
