A good driving record
Learn "A Good Driving Record" by heart. Tell the contents of the dialogue in the narrative.
Mr Brown: How did you come here; today, Miss Diener?
Miss Diener: I drove in by car.
Mr Brown: That’s very nice. Do you find any difficulty in
driving in London traffic?
Miss Diener: Oh, no! I’m quite accustomed to it now. I used to feel nervous at first when I had a stream of traffic on either side of me, and was always afraid that someone was going to bump into me, but I’ve got over that now.
Mr Brown: How do you find driving here compared with
driving in Germany?
Miss Diener: Of course, at first it seems much more difficult, but when you get used to the vastly heavier traffic and the “keep-to-the-left” rule of the road you prefer driving here.
Mr Brown: Is that so? Why i$ it, do you think?
Miss Diener: Well, your roads are so good. I have motored almost all over England and Scotland now and have hardly ever found a bad road. Then they are so well marked.
Mr Brown: What do you mean?
Miss Diener: Why, with signposts telling you the direction and distance to the next town, white lines at the dangerous comers, notices to steep hills and traffic lights at almost every difficult crossing.
Mr Brown: Have you ever had any accidents while you have
been driving?
Miss Diener: No, nothing serious so far. I once backed the car into a wall and damaged the mudguard a little and once I forgot that I had no water in my radiator until, after I had gone some miles, I smelt a terrible smell of hot oil and saw steam hissing out of the radiator cap. Luckily, I stopped in time, and no harm was done. But that is all in ten years’ driving.
Mr Brown: Well, that’s a good record; I congratulate you.
TEXT 4 ■■-■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■
TOURING BY CAR IN BRITAIN
With its good road and motorway network, Britain is ideally suited for driving tours. Road numbers and destinations are clearly signposted and even smaller country roads are well surfaced. For quick point-to-point travel the motorway system is best, but to discover the real Britain get off the main roads and explore quiet rural lanes and hidden-away villages. When travelling around, look out for the white-on-brown signposts which indicate nearby tourist attractions.
Renting a car means that you are free to go where you choose and visit places off the beaten track.
All companies offer standard rental with unlimited mileage, large companies offer one-way rental, too. Cars can be rented at most principal railway stations via a British Rail scheme; you can make a reservation just before starting your journey and your car will be waiting on your arrival.
With so many car hire companies, it’s worth shopping around to get a good value deal. Use your credit card. If you want a car with automatic transmission you must specify it at the time of booking.
Conditions of car rental vary: most companies will not rent to those aged under 21 or 25 or aged over 70 or 75 and they usually require a visitor to have held a full driving licence for at least 12 months. It is customary for the rental charge to be paid in advance.
