...Its my pleasure to have you here, Alka! Welcome !<br /><br />Everyone says that if I can drive in India I can drive anywhere...but does not seem to be true, as expats here wait two years giving n tests to get a license.. However, with every ten cars that passes by, atleast four are driven by women here..! That is the motivation that keeps me going back to my trainer with a scary bass voice.

...I learnt how to drive after getting my license :p<br /><br />Bahrain is awful when it comes to giving license. Some people fail more than 5 tests and wait for 2-3 years before they get a license. Although our Arab friends are always on the phone and drive as if their baap owns the roads. The rules hold only for desis.<br />I'm actually scared of the fast cars here. In India we can drive at 20 and feel safe :PNishahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17818499080695379994noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-886740487209578519.post-35175806518511042022014-09-04T14:42:58.897+04:002014-09-04T14:42:58.897+04:00My driving instructor thought that my aim in life ...My driving instructor thought that my aim in life was to pull tapioca from the ground, boil it and have it with fish curry.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-886740487209578519.post-10605937154671162332014-09-03T14:52:00.328+04:002014-09-03T14:52:00.328+04:00:D Thanks RGB !:D Thanks RGB !Anita Jeyan https://www.blogger.com/profile/05657647923285324813noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-886740487209578519.post-9217103172877655152014-09-03T14:51:37.557+04:002014-09-03T14:51:37.557+04:00Thats what..it feels like such a huge hurdle to be...Thats what..it feels like such a huge hurdle to be able to drive...and years later we feel foolish to have thought like that !Anita Jeyan https://www.blogger.com/profile/05657647923285324813noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-886740487209578519.post-20226572068152771322014-09-03T13:53:13.607+04:002014-09-03T13:53:13.607+04:00And the I-too-bought-my-licence drivers only seem ...And the I-too-bought-my-licence drivers only seem to be increasing by the day, choking the roads and with it whatever comes in their path!
