No, not Utada Hikaru’s song…

Yesterday I rode my cousin’s Honda CRV. It has an automatic gearing (am I even using the correct terminology here?) and it was my first time riding such machine.

There were quite some modes we can choose for. There’s P for parking in which the car won’t move even if pushed. Then there’s N for neutral, in which we cannot make the car move using the pedal, but the car can still be pushed. R is for reverse, and D is for drive. And there are still some other stuffs for steep roads.

Switch to D to start moving. Once it’s running, it’s actually very easy. Just press the pedal!

Also don’t forget to use your right foot even for the breaks.

Have you tried one?

It is scheduled that we will go to Jakarta soon to attend a close relative’s big auspicious event. An around 9 hours journey (IIRC), and I’ll take the first drive.

I got my driver’s license (SIM) in a 100% legal way. Yep, I passed all the tests :). However, despite that, my driving skill is kinda bumpy so let’s all hope there won’t be a wreckage tonight.
