Does anybody know of any large parking lots where I can set up some cones and teach my wife to drive? Possibly abandoned. Would be nice to practice some precision driving myself. Any pointers would be appreciated. ---

I highly doubt you’ll be able to find one. Insurance liabilities don’t cover this. ---

When you say “drive” are you talking about road racing / autocross or how not to yield in traffic circles? ---

Haha well I remember back from the point/insurance reduction course, as well as somewhere in the driving manual, they mention something like " You should know how to handle your car under any condition. Use an empty parking lot to learn" so I figured I’d ask. Without getting into too many details, my wife is from overseas and has never really had much experience with a car. An empty parking lot would be a nice way to teach her. ---

If she is asian and you still decide to go through with this mission make sure you are safe. I would suggest this as a minimum. ![http://img.tapatalk.com/d/13/06/07/ydyvy7u7.jpg](http://img.tapatalk.com/d/13/06/07/ydyvy7u7.jpg) ---
