Nice drive infact, only criticism would be trying to mount the pavement at 1:04 but then again the reflection in the window shows you fiddling with something so prob distracted her. That means its your fault
But I thought she drove really well. Maybe girls are better drivers |

at the end of that vid , it shows her quickly coming up behind a lorry ,the next vid shows her overtaking it , now I did panic a bit as a car was coming towards her , but she did the pass quite well .

well Peter, if anything you have shown Shiela to be a perfect driver. For a start (and I am comparing her driving to yours) she is driving at a sensible speed with control and poise. Whereas you, well, the video would have looked sped up....

I think she did very well considering she hasn't drove for a long time , and was driving a " complicated " car ( her words ) .... its a semi automatic
