Learning to drive is usually a combination of excitement and nerves, but for one young lady named Kwena, her driving lesson took an unexpectedly comedic turn that had Mzansi talking.
In a viral TikTok video, the lady's unforgettable moment of forgetting the brakes had her instructor and the internet calling out in fear and laughter. The clip was shared under the handle @rantji.05.

The importance of visiting a driving school
Briefly News spoke with Willie Booyens, a former driving instructor who emphasised the importance of visiting a driving school for initial driving lessons.
"Before retiring, I taught many people to drive; some had learnt how to drive from family and friends before coming to our driving school.
In many cases, they knew how to move the car and had no understanding of the essential rules needed to pass the driving test.
I also noticed that those who learnt before coming to us had bad driving habits that were difficult to break.
Some would forget to indicate before changing lanes, neglect to check their blind spot, and even forget to have both hands on the steering wheel while driving.
It is also safer to learn with someone trained to teach, as they are more equipped to handle a learner who might panic in the middle of the road."
The clip amuses SA
Many social media users expressed how much the learner driver worried them as she kept pressing the accelerator instead of the brakes while also acknowledging how funny the clip was.
