The teacher

The last driving lesson, I drove on the highway and the speed limit was 55. I was very nervous because I didn't like going over 40. I was so tight, I started to lose the feeling in my left hand from gripping the steering wheel. When I turned off the highway and on to another road, I was glad to see the speed limit was 45. By that time I decided to tell the instuctor about my hand because by then I was a little concerned that I couldn't feel my left thumb. He told me to lower my hands on the wheel and after a while I got the feeling in my hand back. I did some merging and changing lanes. I think the lesson went well.
