Learning to drive is an essential part of becoming an Angeleno, but we wouldn't recommend taking lessons from Conan O'Brien, Ice Cube, and Kevin Hart.
Conan staffer Diana Chang needed a little more practice before her driving test, so she enlisted the help of her boss, who offered sage advice like "10 and 2" (now outdated) and to yell "You're my bitch!" at passing drivers (not recommended).
To get her used to driving with passengers, Conan enlists the help of Ice Cube and Kevin Hart (who you might remember from their previous Lyft adventures), who also advise her to not "f— this up" and throw pennies at other drivers, but ultimately declares, "Rules are for bitches."
Diana seemed to do a pretty good job, and as a reward it was all capped off with a Popeye's run. Good luck on your test Diana!
