I would rather teach her myself (shouldn't take more than a week)than wasting money sending her to a driving school. No wastage of resources jare, at all at all na hin bad pass ooooo...Every dolly, euro or naira counts jare. Muke ke gringringrin

It is a very difficult thing to do if the man is not patient and the woman is afraid and not ready to accept the husband as her master at that time. I taught my wife to drive within a week. That was a year ago. She is now a master herself. I don't even like to go places with her nowadays as she will be correcting me all the time. grin

From most of the comments here, one can deduce its best to enroll in a driving school.

I'm just imagining what it will be like if my man were to be my teacher, I'd prolly do the opposite of whatever he says and then cry if he yells at me so that he'd pet and cuddle me at the end grin.

Hope he doesn't read this.

No. Am not even that patient.

Siena: Errr, no. It's a fact a driving instructor should ideally have no emotional attachment to his / her pupil. It seldom works. Even qualified ADI's tend to leave their spouse's to be tutored by a colleague.

Which kind yeye driving school? If you see d way some brave women handle the steering and manoeuvre their ways on a busy road, with stunts you go fear fear. And you think they learn all that from the driving school? Big lie grin

Why was she unsuccessful passing her test, through a driving school? That's what you need to look at - the reasons she failed.

uboma: most men do not have the patience to teach their wives how to drive. They always scream at every litle mistake the wife commits. But for the very few men who can patiently guide their wives on how to drive, i say kudos to u.

This was me LoL. She ended up going to a driving school and passed on the third attempt.

And there are times when she thinks I'm just plain stupid
"Haaa!! See GUtter oooo!! See pit oooo!!! Haaa! Turn ur hand! Turn ur HAND!"
These kind of screamings would drive me insane! I'm like STFU! I'm not blind! I can see the gutter undecided
Or she start shouting
"U are gong too fast!! Press brake!"
Then later she'll be like
"Are we gonna sleep on the road!"

judano: A husband should be willing to teach the wife ALL things. Currently teaching my wife how to drive after unsuccessful attempts at driving school.
Agreed, but women attach a lot of emotion when taught by their spouse which makes a 2 mins course 2 weeks dats if they finish unlike d other way round

Easy cos determination has set in on her part. Initially she was afraid which made her unsuccesful @ d drivn sch. And nw having gone through she is nw hell bent on learning. Psycological, no emotions are attachd nw. I can bet u dat dat is why she is getting along with you.

Nice topic and some funny replies.grin

Can u guess what happened next? She climbed the speed bump without slowing down. shocked . After doing that She now looked at my face and said 'the brake isn't working' undecided

omicron: Of course yes! How romantic!!
errm, it's not romantic. Teaching someone how to drive requires patience and if one doesn't have it, then the whole situation is gonna turn into a war zone. My dad taught my mum and till this day they both curse that moment, my mum especially. She once bashed the car on a tree and when my dad wouldn't help her get it out after much plea and screaming, she took a taxi home. My dad took another taxi home...I think they eventually paid some towing company to tow the car back.

That was why my dad made me learn how to drive early. He said he doesn't want no husband teaching me.

Re: Should A Husband Teach His Wife Driving? by chronique(m): 6:31pm On Jan 09, 2013
If I have the chance,I wont. I'd rather she goes to a driving school. My life is too precious for me. It's not like I feel d instructor in d driving school deserves to die o,I just wont risk it. Reason is I once had a female friend who drove her mum's car all d way from sango to maryland without having driving lessons(in her own words). When she said that,I told her she was lying. Ok,how did you learn? She said she was always watching her mum drive. I still did not believe her. Reality dawned on me when I got into d car with her one day n she drove. If you'd seen her driving,you'd think we stole the car. She'd approach every turn with speed,not minding if a car is coming in d opposite direction. She practically left me with my heart in my mouth all thru d journey. I kept trying to correct her but no way,she was just reckless. I was expecting something nasty to happen to us dat day. The moment we got to our destination n parked,I swore neva to enter her car again until she learns how to drive properly. The worst part is dat she refused to use the learner's sign. She was brave n silly @ d same time. That was 3yrs ago. I think it's imperative that pple(ladies especially),go to driving school. If you've not noticed,most of d rough drivers on our roads today are ladies. For me,driving school is a must.
