How should a New York driving instructor handle teaching in heavy NYC traffic for the first time with a student?

1. Avoid all NYC traffic until after the student has passed the DMV road test
2. Introduce city driving gradually, starting with less congested outer-borough streets before progressing to busier areas
3. Begin in midtown Manhattan so the student learns city traffic through immediate immersion
4. Let the student select any route regardless of demonstrated skill or traffic complexity
