Allowed to Drive!

After my board exams the most I have studied is for the driving tests which I cleared in February.

For the past few weeks before the 19.02 - both Sats and I - would be talking only about the driving rules. We had resorted to using sign language to communicate with each other so that we get used to paying attention to signs. Spending quality time meant sitting together and doing the mock tests - we had a package of 60 odd test papers and we each of us did each paper around 2-3 times. The people who had given the test earlier had convinced us that the actual questions are from these papers so we tried to mug 1800 odd questions and of course it was a Herculean task, phew!!
We also found the following website very useful link

For a driving license in Germany one needs to pass a written test and then clear a driving test. We cleared the written test on the 19.02 and then the driving test on the 27.02. The driving inspector told me that he is giving me the license but "I am a fast driver. Do be careful". Whatever! for a person who got his driving license home delivered in India without appearing for a test to clear the strict procedures in place in Europe on the first attempt is a big achievement :-P.

Now I look forward to the delivery of my car!
