i quit my last job at april this year so i went home for a rest. there were many time i can do something which i had no time to do when i was working so i started to learn to drive a car. from the end of april there were 4 steps that i had to finish. the first one is the knowledge of driving a car, the laws, the rules, and the 2nd one is to drive a car in a place which taught me to go back and put the car on beside the road and turn around. and the next one is driving a car on the road like street stop when you see the red light and the last one is a little same with the first one. I should take the exam on the computer and the exam is about safe rules when you driving a car. there are some videos and gif pictures.
