I just passed my road test last 18 of this month and my friend the next day.

Does she has a valid driving license? if so tell her to get an International Driving License before leaving your country. so she can start driving when she gets here.

While depending on her International license start applying her to get the local license, but I tell you she has to do all the test they require here as only British, American, GCC Arab countries are automatically translated to local licenses. Asians has start from very beginning. She has to pass the Road sign. L and pocket parking before having the road test. Now, pocket parking it the hardest others are quite easy.

secret with pocket parking tell her when she reverse give a space of half meter away from the pole, then when she sees the first pole corner covered by the back hood of the car, full turn to the right. put down the mirror on the left hand side, reverse until the back left wheels touches the middle of the white line, then full turn to the left, reverse slowly and gradually, look at the front of the car to see to avoid touching the pole, as the front of the car goes in, reverse slowly and watch the back of the car make sure she doens't touch the pole, watch the front wheel, if it touches the white line in the middle, full turn to the right then move forward a bit to make sure she's inside the box. Now, taking the car out is not difficult take as many turn as she wants so long as she doesn't knock over any pole. after passing that they will take her for a road test.

Road test technique. adjust the chair with her right hand outside her right leg pulling the metal to adjust the chair, left hand on the steering wheel, adjust the mirror to see the back of the car and next the mirror on the left hand side, put the seat belt on, turn off the hazard indicator, indicate to the go off to the left, watch the road before going out watch the speed limits. then listen when the police says where to go. when he says stop! indicate to the right pull over, stop, turn on the hazard indicator, shift the gear to neutral, hand brake,

don't forget to say Thank you to the police he! he! he!

Wish her luck!!!

Just keep dancing, it will do you good!
