Please don’t confuse the UK with the whole Europe

I know exactly how you feel. In England it is referred to as ‘America’ and doesn’t distinguish between Canada and the USA. However, I lived in the uk for 17 years – I was simply poking my British/European friends for a laugh.
Best,

says on:Easy in Canada, with those long empty freeways. Not so easy on Europe’s crowded roads. Probably best in that case to stop the car first!

Ah yes agreed! I did however create most of the course for my upcoming Travel Exercise course, during the 17 years I lived in England lol I was probably that crazy driver everyone complains about!
All these exercises are best done during a traffic jam, stop sign or traffic light, as I advise in the full course. Thanks for the heads up – we need more safe drivers 🙂
