Roads with no cars
 

Does anyone know of a quite section of road or roads where my nervous wife can drive my car,:eek: she has not driven for about 12 years and wants to start again....



We are in Basildon Essex but are willing to travel a little way if it`s a nice day out as well.




Thanks all, Darren. :thumb:

Set the alarm for 6am Sunday morning.

Find an area where old people live.

Superstore carparks after closing time.

Should do for the moment.

Thanks Brendan I have a two year old no need for the alarm :sleep:
wanted to be in the day light really but a possibility :thumb:
O and I am old BTW.....


Darren.

How about somewhere in Scotland-shire ? Some of wur roads are guy quiet !

North of Inverness - no so many folk !

None of the roads suggested on this thread cos they will be full of Snetters out for a thrash after reading about them here

Find an industrial estate on a Sunday or after 6 in the evening. Note lighter evening from now on.

Best order the new clutch now :D

Burnt Mills Ind. Estate on a Sunday, slim chance of some learner drivers first lesson though.

M4 bus lane in rush hour :D

Thanks everone will try them all....





How much is a new clutch :wonder: :lol1:



Next Sunday is the day to stay of the runways guys!!!


you have been warned :norty: :lol1:

Try an empty car park

Festival Lesuire Park on a Saturday night. :D

You might be best to book her a couple of hours with a local instructor so she can get her confidence back again.

M6 Toll Road. Last time I came down it I appeared to be the only person willing to pay £3.50 to avoid going round Birmingham. Three lanes of Tarmac as far as the eye could see to myself and I was stuck in a Peugeot 407 Diesel.
Had just bumped into the Top Gear Guys filming their amphibious Car show though so it wasn't a completely boring day.

Priceless ! :)

But sensibly, I'd second Burnt Mills Ind Est on a Sunday....

Industrial estates are the best places :)

Dan :)

there is a site at Hornchurch cardrome, pay couple quid to gain entry, there are several hundred yards of marked out roadway, A125 Upper Rainham Road
Hornchurch Essex, oppersite Harrow lodge park

Is that still there? I learned road driving myself there 30 years ago :eek:

I think we will try all of the above in the next couple of weeks :thumb:



I like the three lanes of tarmac idea..............plenty of room :lol1:
