I believe you could throw in Ho....but I'm not familiar with African American terms.....perhaps you've lived in the "hood" of late? Or maybe we'll just go back to that "too much telly" for you then.

I learnt to drive in Denver, CO. I took lessons in the UK, but never passed my test as I didn't need a car (pub was round the corner, work was a train ride away and the shopping was done at the corner shop and/or chippy ![Big Grin](https://britishexpats.com/forum/images/smilies/biggrin.gif)
Even in snow and freezing rain, driving in Denver was a joy compared to down here in FL, although the Gulf Coast is a little easier on the ticker than the East Coast, which is just :scared:
As most have said, if you can go straight, turn the wheel a bit and (occasionally) use your brakes, you'll be fine. Don't worry about using your indicators though, no one here seems to know what they're for

Wow.
Must be something in the water at the moment....maybe some extra Oestrogen got dumped into the system causing all these women to get a bit uppity of late?
Personally I blame Syllk entirely. I bet he even put good old Nia up to her rant too.
