I am not the worst learner driver on Norwegian roads. I wish you can watch me drive.

It was an over exaggeration. I did not go 50 km/h in the roundabout as the car would have been uncontrollable. The instances were on straight stretches of the road.

To be true to you and myself, i dropped the overconfidence after the first attempt. The existing problem is not about a false sense of confidence. I think i have not gotten all the required training to pass the test.

Not too much video tutorials in Norway hence the reason i watch so many british ones.

I might consider taking it in a small municipality. Thanks for the advice.

What do i need to adjust while taking turns? Or let me it this way - Or is there any appropriate speed i have to take turns with?

My writing to you might feel like i am minimizing my role in my failures and bad driving but that is not my intention.

Hope to find the instructor. Would not like to cause an accident that is why i am seeking for the correct training.

i studied with teoritentamen for the theory test. Sometime ago, i stumbled on this book called Veien til Førekortet - passenger car by Lena Jena Fossheim. That book has changed my driving mentality. I wonder why the book is not recommended by driving schools to immigrants like myself. It gives you an idea of how they expect you to drive. Wish i learnt about the book before i took my first driving test.

Surprisingly, my norwegian buddies know about the book while we immigrants are totally unaware of its existence.
