Having my driving test soon.

Pretty nervous

My driving test lasted for 5 minutes and I passed

Haha 5 min? here it's usually 15-25 min. And you drive around town, not around cones or something like that (which I've seen on TV).

And you have to take atleast 28 lessons of 40 min each or 19 lessons of an hour, and only then u can take the test.

Also after u pass, you have to drive with an adult for 3 months before you can drive alone only untill 9PM, then another 3 months untill you can drive alone all the time.

The minimum age is 16 and 9 months.

What? 28 lessons of 40min? I can learn how to drive a F1 car with that many lessons!

Here you have to do it in three steps. First, you need to do a medical/physocologic exam. Then, you have to take 9 theorical classes of 40min to learn about the traffic rules and what not, so you can take a theorical test of around 40 tests. Third, you take 10 pratical lessons of 50min during the day and 5 at night. At last, you do your actual pratical exam that consists of 3-4 blocks of real traffic, but with some cones and parking tasks, which only lasts about 10mins.

You get the result right away...

Who said you can't do that in here also?

In Brasil they are so indiscreet that they don't even wait for you to ask them. They start already telling you that for 350 reais you don't have to go through the process...

Yeah, but the problem here is that it is the only way. You won't pass if you don't bribe the guy. It's a sad reality.

Here you either have to read Chinese or decipher the Chinglish on the English version! They have traffic rules and lanes that I have never seen else where. I will leave the driving to Bao for the few Months we have left.

YES!!!! I am headed back to Memphis! My husband has been promoted and that means he needs to go back to corporate. We will stay until Nathan goes to Tanzania on his Global Classroom trip and MacKenzie has competed in the tournament in Bangkok and finished the school play.
