Anyways, I saw the far right lane was open, and went around brining my speed up to 45, the cars behind me started honking at me and I was like wtf is this the offical 10 mph under the speed limit day? So I was going into the middle lane kind of fast to get in front of this suv that kept honking at me and lost control. My car start wobbling left and right, and when it came to the left again my rear end came loose. Luckily since I had been going 45 mph I was about a 1/4 mile in front of traffic and there was no traffic going the other way, so I instantly got into first gear and went across the median on the other side of the road since I was turned around.

After that tale I'd recommend a basic driver's education course. Many high schools and the some states offer them to the public.

Here is a preview teaser >>

Reason #1 normal driver school sucks
They don't even teach manual.
Reason #2
They threaten to fail you if you go 1/10 of a mph over the speed limit making you go under the speed limit and everyone speeding angrily around you.

They can probably teach you the basics about driving a car. At least how to not spin your car out into opposing traffic.
