yeah actually now that I think about it they told us to NOT cover the break but cover the clutch... I got my only points taken away for having two fingers cover'n the brake...

they wanted to emphasize you to pull the clutch in a panic rather than slam on the brakes...


how was it with her? I know it can be a bit frustrating teach'n someone you care about... things go smooth?
