One very important oft overlooked last lesson.

Go to a back country road with light traffic ; purposely drop right wheels off the shoulder ; I have seen more than a few hurt/killed due to snap over correction. Show her to get off gas, light brake, and slowly ease back up on pavement. Of course patience and lots of practice and no damn cell phones in hand while behind the wheel. Good luck.
