As [...] as.
Hello.
My teacher has told me that we could not create a comparison using just one "as".
I mean : My car is as fast as yours.
However I have heard people saying something like this - I'm fast as a tiger. (just with one "as")
Can you tell me which way is the proper way of using "As"?
Thank you in advance.

The full pattern is "as ~ as ~". The omission of the first "as" is an abbreviated form that you might sometimes encounter.
