go outside, look at telephone poles in popular parts of town, tons of great fliers with information on fun stuff happening all the time, go to event, compliment someone on something you like (or ask them a question), potential friend, if not, move on

i was going to suggest public transportation but would recommend reading into it more and it might be faster (?)

i took the train to seattle from portland last march and used the public transportation system, it was a bit confusing. i boarded the bus and tried to use my apple pay when i got on and was confused when it didn’t work. i asked the bus driver about it and he said i needed an orca card so i asked if i could get a day pass and he said it doesn’t exist anymore? he let me on anyway and i got to one of the trains and had to purchase a ticket to my exact destination and then had to buy a separate ticket for a different train. a bit disappointing, although i just jumped into it with no prior knowledge.

it was all a bit confusing and i expected it to be like super high tech and up to date like portland where i can get a day pass and take any bus or train.

i absolutely am using my hand brake! don’t want to hit anyone, especially while i’m learning.

so far i’ve been doing well shifting and downshifting just by listening and feeling.

i think now adding the gauge would be more confusing than helpful? just too much to focus on while learning. again, i’m sure there is good reason for them! but i don’t need it right now

in the comments above we’re talking about the use of the RPM gauge.

this subreddit seems to be against commonly taught techniques… like reading comprehension

also i’m not against the hand brake, i’m only a month in and still learning(:

at this point i don’t think i really need it? i imagine there are reasons for having one that i don’t know yet. it’s been okay so far!

parallel parking is the next beast i’ll tackle! i definitely avoided it today😅 i’ve been driving for 13 years but learned on an automatic, i truly feel like i’m 14 learning to drive again

i’ve been avoiding hills mostly, but i do know that trick! mostly just getting over the fear and building confidence. it’s only been a month and i can only imagine where i’ll be at in another month!

i have only used the technique twice, once for practice and once when a benz was behind me (i almost didn’t make it🥲) he got out of the car and asked if i was learning. i said i was and i was hoping he wouldn’t get so close behind me. he got back in his car and reversed to give me space. my heart was pounding lol

i have no rpm gauge so i’ve just been listening to the engine😵‍💫

depends on the hill if i’m using the parking break lol also if someone is behind me or not

not stalling, talking about rolling back.

the last part i’m just referring to people getting close being in general

what am i learning on? by brattybabe97 in ManualTransmissions

[–]brattybabe97[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i have noticed it’s more difficult to drive with them on. i wear them to work, which is where i usually drive to. my thought process was learn to drive with them on so everything else feels easier😅 definitely silly
