What did they teach you? Stop when the light is red, go when the light is green, and every other vehicle on the road as the right of way because in an argument you always loose?
Grats  on the course... now remember... most humans have an allergy to asphalt.... when you rub up against it real fast it will create a very painful rash. So try to avoid doing that  |

Back in the early 80's when I took my Motorcycle riding course, part of the training was obstacle avoidance. They taught us to jump over tires and drive up and down a teeter totter style ramp.
That training came in handy when a chunk of metal I-beam fell off a truck I was following one day. The front wheel hit it and the bike was airborne for a few seconds. The rim suffered a small dent from the incident. My brother in law was on the back and nearly sh*t himself 
Interestingly enough though I never actually had to drive on public roads in order to get a license. All instruction was done on a closed course, even at the license bureau. |

That was my first time on two wheels I know I learned a lot of bad habits riding my trike, especially cornering. I took it mainly to unlearn the bad habits  |
