My gf was a horrible driver.

She would turn like in this gif:

She would slowly pass the steering wheel to the other hand and keep repeating the process.

In other words, she sucked at turning.

U-turns were terrible too.

So, before we swapped my car from auto to manual, I took her out to a nice open parking lot, told here to watch what I did at a certain turn, then have her repeat it.

Now, she's a much better driver compared to before, she just has to learn how to "force" your way when merging into traffic.
