- Driving lesson number one with Kaillah.
Today is an assessment for learning.
We're figuring out where her driving is at
and then working on skills and abilities
for her driving test, which is actually on Friday,
so we're under a bit of a time crunch here,
because it's Monday
and we have four days to get her ready for her driving test.
Stick around, we'll be right back with that information.
(upbeat music)
So basically today, all we'll do
is we'll just, we'll just drive around
we'll kind of see where you're at
we'll see how you're doing.
- [Kaillah] Okay.
- [Rick] And then, you're going to have to be able to brake
with your stick.
Keep it around that seven.
I think you're already aware of that.
Your stops are really good
you really good control of the brake.
Now we can tilt the back of this seat back a little bit
I think that you might be more comfortable.
- Back a little bit.
- Cause you're okay on your legs,
- Yeah.
- [Rick] it's just your arms are a little
- [Kaillah] Mhm.
- [Rick] You're a little bit, you should be a little bit
more like this with your arms.
- [Kaillah] Okay.
- Nope, just the, this the back.
There you go. - There.
Yeah.
- Is that a little bit better?
- Yeah.
- Yeah cause usually you just want
kind of like a slight bend in your arms like this
and that way you'll be more comfortable when you're driving.
I know it's a bit tough with your
(laughs)
your legs are a little bit short there
- [Kaillah] Yeah.
- [Rick] But you're right, I know what you're thinking.
- Yeah, yeah.
You're thinking - Yeah (laughs)
because I'm not bossy.
- We're not, we're just
you're a little bit nervous,
it's first time, it's okay.
You don't have to stop, you can keep going,
that's a yield, that's not a stop.
So they're good, so now you just proceed.
- Proceed where?
- Straight through, right here.
- Straight through.
- And I promise I won't yell at you
- (laughs)
- I will not yell at you.
- Sorry (indistinct)
- We're going, at the traffic light we'll turn left.
- [Kaillah] Okay.
(blinker flashing)
- So shoulder check.
So shoulder quick, quick head turn
- Quick head turn.
- Very quick head turn.
- Slow down, slow down
- [Kaillah] Sorry.
- [Rick] and stop stop stop stop stop stop.
- [Kaillah] Is okay.
(indistinct)
- [Rick] Nope, the only reason I was saying that
is because had you gone on that yellow
that's an automatic fail.
- Okay. - Okay.
So if the light turns yellow and you're still back here,
get on the brakes and get it stopped
because for the purposes of your driver's test,
yellow and red are the same, they mean the same thing.
Stop.
- [Kaillah] Okay.
- That's why I was stop stop stop stop stop
cause I'm having a go at you.

- [Kaillah] Sorry.
- Two way, you got to stop and then creep out.
- Yep.
- [Rick] Watch watch watch watch watch watch.
- [Kaillah] (indistinct)
- Sorry.
- No, okay. - I'm sorry.
- All good.
Yeah.
So two ways stop signs,
major road has the right of way over the turning
over the other traffic
- Okay.
- that's controlled, okay.
- Yep.
- So you're going to have through traffic,
which is that lane and they have the right of way.
- Mhm.
So you have to stop and then creep up and stop again
- Yeah.
- and wait for a place to go, okay.
- Mhm.
- So there's the end of the playground sign there.
So the other piece going back to that intersection
where you sort of went through,
- [Kaillah] Mhm.
if you get into a situation, any situation
when you're driving or a situation
like that on your driver's test
and it's not just your driving test,
it's anytime you're driving and you were unsure what to do
stop, just stop.
Reassess the situation,
other drivers will go around you
if something doesn't happen and the traffic situation
will clear and then you can proceed after that
when you're safe.
But if you're, if you're in the least bit doubt
of what to do just stop.
- [Kaillah] Are we going on the highway?
- [Rick] We are, yes.
I can feel you panicking.
(laughs)
(blinker flashing)
Shoulder check here. There you go.
See when it goes two to one like that
and you're
- Shoulder check.
- Yeah just shoulder check to make sure
there's nobody coming up on the inside here.
- [Kaillah] On the road test do they take you here?
- Not likely. We'll stay out to this side
cause you'll get a better line of sight on the highway.
- [Kaillah] Okay.
- [Rick] Okay. Floor it, get her going,
signal right or left rather, that way, up to ninety
put your food into it.
Throttle, throttle, throttle, go, go, go.
There you go. More throttle, more throttle.
(loud ringtone)
- Nice.
(car passing)
- I'm not used to driving here.
(laughs)
(blinker flashing)
- Whoa, whoa. - Sorry.
- Yeah, two way stop.
Yeah. Can't just bulldoze into the intersection.
(blinker flashing)
(cars passing)
(blinker flashing)
So when your shoulder checking to the left
you're turning too far.
- Yep.
- Just 90 degrees. Just turn your head 90 degrees.
- 90 degrees. - Yep.
- I don't have to exaggerate it the turn.
- No, it doesn't have to be more than 90 degrees.
- Okay.
- It's just a quick head turn and that's all you need.
- Okay.
- Hang on there one sec
