just schedule a test, you literally just drive around the block and parallel park

I was in the same situation, just study super hard like obsessively on like...things that make you specifically fail the drivers test. I had about 5-9 times to practice driving with others (hour at most) and 6 hour pack of drivers lessons before I passed my test the second time (barely passed though)

>>17373237
You sound like me except I'm 23 and I actually can't practice with parents cause I'm living abroad for my studies

Anyone knows a way to practice more? It's 15 mandatory hours at the driving school and $50/extra hour which I don't wanna pay

>>17373252
yeah i've already taken three 2 hour driving lessons. thats usually enough for teenagers because they have a ton of required driving hours to do in addition because they have people who will drive with them

driving school here in america is basically like 60+ an hour

Not the same, but I get it.

i never practiced with friends, never took lessons, only with either of my parents for about a year and a half. Just book your first test nobody cares if you fail i have friends that failed 4 times and passed on their 5th which is perfectly fine. the testers will also give you a review of how badly you fucked up so you know what to do better which helps a lot. I failed once because i didnt signal going into a roundabout and coming out and also the bitch took marks off for not putting my parking break on a fucking flat road.

Do you have someone who knows how to drive manual with enough spare time to drive around with you?

>>17373502
you know, you can probably contact your local driving school. i bet you can find one that has a manual car

or hell even post on craigslist seeing if someone has one willing to pay

My mom but fuck that, she was bad enough at teaching me to drive autotragic. All I really need is a tyranny I can trash and a fairly quiet road anyway, it's not THAT hard.

>>17373583
Oh, hadn't thought of driving schools. Craigslist ads would feel weird for this kind of thing but I'll have to look into schools.
