The road to getting a motorcycle license for Yui Arata, who is also a fashion model and a race queen, is finally over. Is it possible for Yui, who has been conducting training without dropping any stamps so far, to clear the graduation test in one shot?
* Interviews and photography were conducted after graduation so as not to affect the training of the student and her current students. In addition, although the mask is removed in the photo, I took care to prevent the spread of the new coronavirus infection, such as wearing a mask when I was not wearing a helmet.The setting is closer to the general road than the more difficult simulator.
Yui taking simulator training
The sixth period, which can be said to be the latter half of the second stage, was a subject lesson and a set simulator lesson. The simulator has been run twice in the past, but this time it is "danger prediction". It will be more practical. If you've ever driven a car or motorcycle, you might have had a chilling experience, such as a child jumping out behind a truck. It is to actually experience such a "common accident".
Seeing the child jumping out, suddenly brake!

Yui starts with excitement, "I don't know what will come out." Not to mention the ball flying at the intersection and children popping out, the car that forcibly overtakes despite the one-lane road on each side, the car that enters the intersection while accelerating even while turning right, etc. Yui is sick of the content that makes me think, "Do you want to do this?" Or "Is there something like this?" Then, after the accident actually occurs, while discussing with the instructor, "What should I do to prevent the accident?", I will utilize it for driving on the road after obtaining a license. The content is "Do you want to do this?", But it seems that these are actual accident examples. It's neither extreme nor anything.
Department training is also conducted
There was an explanation that you should run as close to the center as possible at the intersection.
The department training is also carried out as it is. I will review the behavior at intersections as shown in the traffic regulations and photos. A person who has an ordinary driver's license is exempted from the department when he / she takes a lesson on a two-wheeled vehicle license, but only this one period is required. If you have a normal two-wheeled license, you will be exempt from this department as well.
Although there was an unexpected struggle, I was able to clear it safely!

The 7th period of the 2nd stage is the final summary for the 2nd stage Mikiwame that will be held at the next time. It's time to practice. Yui's expression is also serious. I will check it many times so that I can confirm issues such as slalom and Ipponbashi, and receive detailed guidance. However, the slalom caused him to fall. Even after that, I was able to do it until now, such as getting a foot on Ipponbashi ...
Yui running alone
After that, although I succeeded by doing it several times, the instructor did not give me any compliments. After that, the training was completed by running the A course and the B course. Yui is very depressed, saying, "I can't ... absolutely no ...". The accompanying staff who encourages me by seeing the appearance of such a shocking yellowtail.
Yui who is shocked by too much
However, the premonition of Yui was always right, and it was the first time that I couldn't get a stamp. Yui, who received the 7th period again in this way, is relieved to receive a stamp this time.
Yui who takes the lesson again
I hurriedly re-booked and challenged only two stages. Mikiwame is whether you have reached the level to advance to the graduation test. Therefore, it will be checked with a stricter eye than ever before. Yui is a little nervous, but she has done the tasks properly and cleared the two stages. It was sunny and I was able to proceed to the graduation test. He said, "I wasn't very confident. I want to take the graduation test while I'm done."
Finally to the graduation test!

If the graduation test ends in the morning of the day, you can apply for the next day. However, Yui finished in the afternoon, so she applied from the day after next. However, the schedule did not fit at all. Uneasy, Yui decided to practice herself once before taking her test. By the way, the content of her voluntary practice is similar to the lesson before Mikiwame. She is thus ready for her test.
The long motorcycle training is finally going to the end!
The morning of the graduation test is early!
Yui checking the contents while looking at the bulletin board
The day of the test is early in the morning, and we meet at 8:30. Yui, who is weak in the morning, went to school with a sleepy face. She looked at the signboard of her test at the entrance and confirmed the rough contents. Then check her name on the board, her assigned bib, and her content, "Today is two courses."
The 2 courses are to perform the task course "Starting on a slope, slalom, Ipponbashi, braking" after the training course B of Rainbow Motor School Wako. The graduation test will be scored by a deduction method. Points are deducted for each mistake from 100 points, and if it falls below 70 points, it fails. In addition to falls, temporary non-stop, pylon contact, single bridge fall, and sudden braking over will be canceled. If you do not pass the test, you will have to take the graduation test again, but before that, you will have to take repairs for one period. In other words, it costs extra money, so this is where I want to aim for a one-shot clear.

This is how the test started. Since it was held on a holiday, more than 20 people participated! Therefore, the test was conducted in groups, but Yui became a top batter.

Turn on the turn signal, change lanes, see the sign and pause. We will proceed with the test with solid movements one by one. However, probably because I was nervous, I was supposed to raise the 3rd gear early and run, but it is still the 2nd gear. I can't hide the color of tension, such as noticing it on the way and rushing to 3rd gear. And maybe I was in a hurry, I missed the course! However, even if you make a mistake in the course, you will not be deducted. Follow the instructions of the instructor and return to the course to tackle cranks, railroad crossings, intersections with poor visibility and challenges one after another.
Yui who challenges the pylon slalom
Then, after finishing the task of starting on the slope, we went to slalom. Pass within 8 seconds without defeating the pylon. Next, Ipponbashi did not touch his foot and cleared in about 7 seconds. Braking, which I was afraid of at the beginning, can be stopped firmly, and all I have to do is stop the engine and get off with the correct procedure. The test was completed in about 10 minutes, but it seems that it was felt for a long time.

Yui came back with a smile, saying, "I made a mistake in the course." She seems worried, "Is it okay?" "After the completion, the examiner didn't say anything. I'm scared of that," he said in a restless atmosphere.
Until I get the result, Yui is just worried
About 1 hour after the test is completed. Yui, who got a wonderful pass, looked relieved and got her graduation certificate. If she takes this to the license center, it will be fine and she will join the ranks of riders.
When I asked the person in charge of the test, he said, "It seems that I was quite nervous. Considering the public road, I think it would be better to run with more sharpness. It was too late, and the timing to grab the brakes at the time of braking was also early. " All the staff who are impressed that she is watching well while listening to the story. "Course mistakes come from tension. But when you get out on the road, you get more pressure, and I think there are many parts that you can't overlook, such as signs, but the rest is just gaining experience. I think that's right, "said Yui-san for advice.
Yui smiles with her motorcycle equipment
In this way, I entered the school in mid-April, and Yui-san's ordinary motorcycle license training, which started in mid-May, was successfully completed in three months. When asked by the staff, "How is it? Will you take a big bike as it is?" She said, "I don't have any money right now, and I'd like to try it after getting used to the bike." Even though I'm used to it, I don't own the bike, let alone the parents of her parents' house ... Yui smiles at the staff, saying, "That's why I'm going to interview you."

[Next notice] Let's actually run on public roads in the final round!
In this way, Yui's training life has been completed. Later, Yui reported to her parents that she had obtained her license. She received an unexpected reply from her father, "Don't buy it," but her mother said, "It's dangerous, so it's absolutely useless!" First of all, congratulations. And it was cheers for good work. After that, if my mother allows me to buy a motorcycle, I'll be old.
Next time, we will ask you to challenge the final "driving on public roads for the first time". looking forward to!
