It amazes me that someone will spend three or more hours a day practicing a sport which is a game but is unable to find any time to develop a skill which can be a matter of life or death.
To develop into habit the essential skills necessary for your long term survival requires being able to complete the task 28 times in a row correctly and then practicing that technique over the course of six months. That is why Wisconsin requires you to keep your permit for at least 6 months before you can take a Road Test The only reason I can think of that the sport would be more important would be if you have superior skills making it possible for you to to move into the professional arena at which point you can hire a chauffeur.

A minimum of six (6) hours of practice between appointments is essential to the development of the habits necessary for navigating through traffic without a crash for the next 70 years.
Practice is time set aside to work on specific skills such as spending 30 minutes making right turns not so much trying to figure out how to steer but developing the habit of scanning the intersection on the approach to and during the turn to make sure your not going to get hit. Everyone's lives seem to be so crammed that allowing a realistic time between lessons to allow for actual practice is essential. Lessons a week apart requires setting aside a 60 minutes every day for just practice, two weeks means 30 minutes, three weeks 20 minutes and four weeks would be only 15 minutes a day. How much time you can set aside really determines how close together you should schedule your lessons. |
