Late Bloomer 🌼 learning to drive

[@jenqian]

soo nice to know im not the only anxious driver

[@furrylittlepeach]

I'm so anxious omg! I've imlroved since these first few times HOWEVER I'm still so hypervigilent and stressed that i need a long nap almost every time afterwards!!!!

[@baetoul9275]

@@furrylittlepeach I learned to drive a bit late as well, was finally forced to in order to secure a job, and I felt the same way. After driving lessons I'd be soaked with sweat with cramped hands from holding on so tight and being so focused. Now I drive on auto and don't even notice! You'll get there with the time and practice.

[@delias3778]

Sha’an!!! As someone who got their license later in life, and then proceeded to never use it due to anxiety, you’ve given me SO much confidence to try again!! You’re doing amazing!! And you have great (and patient and kind)instructors!🤣

[@furrylittlepeach]

We got this 💪🏼💕

[@sarahdunlap6409]

as a 29 yo who hasn't gotten a licence and has driven maybe 5 times in parking lots and on backroads, this was SO comforting to watch !! i've felt so much guilt for not driving, but it's so nice to see that i'm not alone in the experience and that it is possible to do - even if i'm crazy anxious about starting ! wishing you so much luck with all your driving !!

[@kiralange3820]

"oh no, i didn't indicate" "that's okay, you weren't supposed to, you were going straight"

[@furrylittlepeach]

[@amandaarts3277]

I feel so validated seeing everyone else in the comments talk about how scary driving is.

[@squirellbrain]

Rocket teaching you was so precious!!! You were cracking me up Sha’an HAHA

[@squirellbrain]

I really love this video, your friends are awesome

[@furrylittlepeach]

He's so patient - THANKFULLY

[@sarahley-hamilton2115]

Thank you so much for sharing this process with us, Sha’an! I’m 35 and have never learned to drive due to anxiety and getting easily overwhelmed, but getting my license is one of my 2025 goals. I feel a little less alone knowing that other people are starting this journey a little later in life too 💖

[@Ajena_]

I’m 36 and I’m also making it a goal to learn to drive and get my License!!

[@amywoolsey6591]

Way to go, Sha'an! I actually cannot relate. I'm an "old lady" who got a liberal arts degree, then moved into computer IT then moved into engineering, went to art school in my 40's and now I'm doing illustrations and graphic design- and that's just my business life. I picked up Karate in my 30's, found out I'm not bad with a baseball bat, and racing carts is a blast. Trying new things is my MO so when I saw you struggling to learn to drive, I thought- "this is going to be soooo good for her". Is your self confidence increasing like crazy? I bet it is because I could see from your clips just how much better you were every time you got into the car. Fantastic work, Sha'an! Fantastic! ...and good on ya for remembering everyone's seat belts. :)

[@furrylittlepeach]

Ahhh! Ur my new inspo! This year was gonna be my year of learning - I did ceramics for the first portion fo the year, now driving will take me for the rest of the year. I also wanna learn womp! I think incorporating learning more will actually make me a more confident person. I'm pretty confident socially but sometimes i have a lot of self doubt which can make me weary of things and make me doubt myself. I think itll help with that!

[@rebeccasinclair6994]

“What’s the speed limit?” “Doesn’t matter you’re not going it” made me rollll, hahaha 😁❤ I’m 36 and going to be starting lessons soon, I am super nervous. This made me feel waaaay better about it ❤

[@elfe3951]

this was me 😭 starting the car and going "I don't like this, I don't want to do this" the whole time driving around town. we got this!

[@furrylittlepeach]

We're gonna be okay and excellent drivers one day 🤞🏼💕💕💕

[@tennillecarmody7740]

‘The first stick I ran over I hope I never run over another stick’ was so funny! 😝😂

[@katherineashby1381]

I’m not getting my license super late in life (I’m 23) but it’s definitely later than my peers and it’s comforting to see other people overcoming their anxiety! My biggest tip is: narrate as you drive. This means you are talking out loud and telling whoever is in the car with you what you are seeing. For example “there is a car pulling out, the lane on the right is ending so cars will be merging left, and I am going 25 mph” (I’m in America so obviously your units are different lol). This helps you be hyper-aware of everything on the road without panicking that you can’t see what’s happening. ❤

[@fastandadrift4858]

I promise to you, it feels super late, but its not. Many people get their licenses at 30-40-50. They see full adults and elderly in classes too. Also sweet trick! I am also close to finish paying my classes to get the exam so i feel u at 23 as well. We will prevail

[@PauArriaga18]

Ohhh this sounds so helpful! I struggle a lot with this aspect of driving and makes me think that I will never be able to get a license because of it, but I’m going to try your idea and see if it gets better, thank you for the info

[@ordinaryowls]

i didn't get my license until 29 and was very anxious as well! now i'm a very confident and capable driver! having music on helped me get over the anxiety because it let me focus and stop overthinking everything. being careful but sure of what you want to do is key. edit to add: another really helpful tip is when you are turning, don't manually push the steering wheel back into place. it will start to straighten out on its own as you complete your turn, so just gently let it do so and guide it if needed!

[@finsfables]

rocket is so sweet! congrats to you shaan

[@furrylittlepeach]

That he is!

[@finsfables]

@@furrylittlepeach can you ask him if he can come over and help me learn drive LOL

[@mcarlisle3559]

i am exactly like this in situations where i have no clue what to do and i love love love seeing you surrounded by people who clearly love you and give you grace. and i know it's possible for me!! i know i get like this at first, but i get over it quickly once i have experience, and it helps so much to know i'm not alone and i have hope for kindness during the process~ good luck going forward sha'an, you got this!!

[@meganlobrien]

What's the speed limit? "....dunno you're not going it" 🤣 Good on you for facing your fears! 🎉🎉🎉 you should reward yourself 🥰

[@NoodlePoodle1234]

Aww such a sobering thing to remember how special and dangerous driving is. I love seeing your journey. I remember being soooo excited to drive. But I was a kid without proper fear built in yet. 😅 My one gentle loving suggestion would be to try to control your breathing with help keep you calm. Work on slow steady breaths 3 seconds a slowly in and 3 seconds slowly out. YOU ARE A DRIVER!!!!! 🥳

[@thais.olivly]

As someone who is currently learning how to drive at 26 and has cried in the middle of a lesson because I was so nervous and couldn't get things right, this video came just in the right time, you are not alone in this journey! I felt exactly the same way you did driving for the first time, It's so overwhelming and there are so many things to pay attention to at the same time, but I'm (very slowly) getting better. Everyone has their own pace and I'm learning to accept that it may take me a little longer to get better, but with practice I can do it We got this Sha’an ✨💪💛

[@ritza2402]

All of your instructor are gentle and nice. You are so blessed Shan. I remember when my husband way back when we were bf and gf he tought me to drive and he's shouting at me coz I'm stepping the break too much, but he decided to enroll me to driving school and pay for it.😅😂 So the instructor told me I can drive I am just so hard on the breaks. I also pass all the exam and the licensure which my bf pays for it too. ❤❤❤

[@sa2985]

this was like looking in a mirror HAHA this was basically what it was like learning to drive in my experience! especially the part of asking your partner to take over bc you’re overwhelmed. it does get easier! it’s very liberating to not be dependent on anyone else to go somewhere and listening to music on solo late night drives is the best! i moved interstate for uni so i don’t drive here bc i don’t have a car but i miss it! best of luck, know your limits but push and trust yourself!

[@nomisupernova]

SO proud of you, Sha'an!!! i have very very bad anxiety and i am terrified to learn to drive, but seeing that you're just as afraid as me and its okay makes me want to try

[@zoookoo]

We need this to become a series i'd love to watch your progress 💚

[@KimiPetri]

Good job Shaan!!! Awesome patience Rocket and Nick 😊 Shaan had ideal instructors 😀

[@Fayezerable]

Omggg. I'm 25 and only just started learning this year and it's CRAZY how hard it is to learn something new later in your life! I also was so terrified that I was going to kill literally everyone the second I got on the road but it's so satisfying to see yourself improve! Proof that it's never too late (just might be a little harder haha!)

[@louisejcr]

This inspires me as someone who’s also just learning to drive in her late 20’s! You’re lucky to have kind and patient friends as instructors ❤️ also surprised by the Chris ultimate face reveal 😄

[@bearpuns_]

I got my driver’s license at 25 partly due to laziness, but mostly due to anxiety. It’s so liberating not relying on others for rides! 💛

[@furrylittlepeach]

I'll have to wait at least 6 months to know that feeling however i feel like i dont wanna drive alone 😭💕

[@bearpuns_]

@@furrylittlepeach that is totally understandable! Driving is scary but you’ve taken the first steps and that’s amazing! 🥹

[@rachelpauley8952]

Your openness to share such a difficult learning process was so refreshing to watch; we all go through it, but it felt like such a novel concept that I don’t ever see on KZbin. Seeing the different mentor styles was great, as well- Love Chris! I literally never comment on anything, but I hated watching you apologize for showing stress. Driving will get easier the more you do it ❤

[@colleenstone2243]

Thank you so much for making this video Sha'an! Im 27 and I haven't learned how to drive yet, this is giving me the confidence to get my learners permit again (I had one and I let it expire!). You being anxious in the car at the beginning is so similar to my experience previously!!

[@colossigh]

You need to start turning your head to check your blind spot! Every time you drive this is a must. Best of luck!

[@ireneschoonwinkel]

Well done Sha'an for starting something new and embarking on the journey to get your driving licence! I did so well. I love how everyone in your life supported you in this video and how they helped you. So beautiful to see. Keep at it and I hope with each time it just gets better and better!

[@trashulie]

Watching this has honestly made me cry because I relate SO MUCH to your driving anxieties and your fear and stress is just SO palpable. I'm about to turn 36 and I still don't have my license, and I'm frustrated with myself because of how much it limits me, but it's SO overwhelming and anxiety inducing. It's knowing that I'm not an observant person so I don't notice the cars around/behind me, forgetting to check my mirrors as much as I should because I'm so focused on the road ahead, forgetting everything I know when I get behind the wheel. Your experience is just SO relatable! But you're trying and you're sharing your experience with us and Rocket is so calm and patient, as well as encouraging and watching you makes me think maybe I can try again one day. It's a huge step - and a scary one!!!! - and it definitely shouldn't be downplayed, nor should you feel bad for how overwhelming and scary it is. I'm proud of you!!!

[@kathleenstuartart]

Chris is such a patient teacher. As someone who has had several driving instructors due to my anxiety, a patient teacher like Chris would be so nice. (I'm 36 and still on my L's due to anxiety)

[@furrylittlepeach]

All of my intructors were so good! I felt so lucky when I was editing this video 😭💗

[@RainierNaomi]

As a fellow anxious driver I'm so proud of you girlie!! Take it one step at a time, like every new skill it's gonna feel uncomfortable at first but you'll eventually gain more confidence the more you practice 🙌👏

[@carolinaherrera4546]

your comedic timing is just impeccable and Rocket is such a gem

[@dollarinmy]

I CAN FEEL THIS IN MY STOMACH !!!!!

[@aprilenelly5517]

Ahh thank you so much for this video! I'm 28 years old and I first practiced driving at 19 and was on and off with my practicing until last year when i started practicing more often. I have my appointment for my road test in less than 2 weeks! I drove today to get my partner from the train station (we both ride it to visit each other) and then back home to my place which was about a 40 minute drive total and I was nervous as I tend to be when I drive, as well as this was the first time he saw me drive (he has a DL but not a car so I've never practiced with him before) but he was so supportive and he was so proud of me and that boosted my confidence even more! You will get it! even if it's small steps, even if it takes years, you'll get it! I'm still nervous driving but I've come so far now compared to a year ago and I'm so happy to get more independence like this! Wish you and I both the best in this journey!

[@agothbee]

i think ive been watching your videos for 6 years now and i love that we're getting our first ever chris reveal 😂

[@teriy_illustrates]

As someone who's only had their license for a year, I totally relate to the amount of anxiety you feel. I still get anxious while driving but it's gotten better overtime. You'll learn to trust your instincts and feel more comfortable with practice

[@MrZelda1313]

It took me about a year of driving to feel fully confident and comfortable with it. Today I love it!! But it’s just like art, a lot of it it’s practice and making it routine so you don’t have to think so hard about every step. Good luck!

[@uhbeautifulmes]

Sha'an you did so well! I started driving a little later in life because I was incredibly anxious/had angry loud early "teachers" (I had to learn and test in a week before I moved to uni)-- 10 years later and I can promise you it does get so much easier and becomes second-nature!! The overwhelm of lots going on visually dies down the more you practice for sure. I now can drive manual on big US highways and it rarely makes me anxious, and NEVER to the degree it did when I started. You should be very proud of your progress, and it only gets easier from here 💛🧡❤

[@kornelijazalp]

Ah hooney!

[@furrylittlepeach]

Ty 💗💗💗 its so encouraging to know other people felt similarly but that they feel comfy now!

[@kornelijazalp]

@@furrylittlepeach Trulyy - you'll get to the comfort and joy! :,,) I was also like what the heck am I getting into and now cannot part with my car after my trips hahah

[@spookymuffin88]

It’s exactly like watching myself 2 years ago! I had my Ls since high school and just kept renewing them and doing occasional lessons until I was 34 and finally pushed through my immense driving anxiety to do enough practice to do the test and passed after the second time. Now I still don’t love it but I am more comfortable with practice (I will park so far away to avoid a hard park tho lol. )

[@furrylittlepeach]

I will be the same re parking tbh hehe

[@afterwardsviews]

as someone who has been trying to get their license for 5 years, i can relate to you so much LOL. it's tough getting started, especially if you're an anxious person who thinks about every scenario before it's ever anywhere near happening. it takes a lot of time and practice to get comfortable behind the wheel, but you're doing amazing and just in those few practice drives you learned a ton and made so much progress. proud of you for doing new and scary things!

[@EnchantedSylphStudio]

Oh my gosh I adore you you’ve been my new favorite KZbin and I ALSO waited wayyyyy too long to get my license over anxiety from being a passenger in so many fender benders as a teen

[@candiceschramm]

I loved this video! I love watching you learn to drive because it’s so relatable. Lots of adults are very scared learning new skills like this. Keep them coming! I’d love to see another driving video to see how your anxiety improves on the road

[@helloTracey]

I love this for you ♥️ One thing I’m teaching my leaner son (I’m old lol) is to imagine drawing smooth lines with your tires - especially around corners & roundabouts & parking spots. Stay in the lines, stay steady and draw yourself into where you need to be x

[@nomnomwhitneynom]

Sha'an, good for you!!! this made me tear up a little 🥺 it's so nice of you to share such a vulnerable time. (but also your running commentary is so funny.) there is so much to pay attention to on the road, but you'll get it! and it's so fun and interesting to see what each friend/Rocket focus on teaching you. GOOD LUCK U GOT THIS 💛

[@catrionaoldfield3489]

I've been driving for about 7 years now (and have owned a car for 3 of them) and i was SUCH an anxious learner and so so terrified of everything when i started. i failed my first test and it felt awful and it took me forever once i got my license to actually feel comfortable, but im telling you now (and everyone else who is an adult learner) as someone on the other side - it DOES get better and easier with practice! it's definitely a steep learning curve in the beginning but keep at it and in time it will start to fall into place, and things you forget will become automatic (checking mirrors, seatbelt, indicating, so on). and a little secret: plenty of adult drivers aren't actually that good, theyre just impatient and loud about it. you're doing great just trying to be safe, that's the most important thing. godspeed to you!! (also your car is ADORABLE, very apple-like! does it have a name?)

[@catreadsabunch]

It's good that you are nervous because it means you care! You've got this!! ❤️

[@furrylittlepeach]

And hopefully it means i'm super AWARE

[@xcherrykinsx]

ahhhh this is honestly SO valid !! i learned to drive quite late by usamerican standards and the first time i got behind the wheel, the person teaching me had me put the car and neutral on a slight decline and i had a full-blown panic attack when we moved. we were on a cross-country roadtrip; over the course of two weeks i went from panic and sobbing any time i sat behind the wheel to (nervously but not fearfully) driving from time to time. a year later i'd bought a school bus to convert into an rv. i've lived in my bus for just over five years now and have many more long-distance roadtrips under my belt. all of this is to say that you did a great job and i have every confidence that you'll be a safe but comfortable driver before you know it !!

[@boredjerboa]

I was a mess when I was learning to drive, procrastinated it for years, now I feel weird if I don't drive at least once a week. It takes a little time but you'll get there!!!

[@rosalindaleal6122]

Sha'an you are awesome! You can do this! Everyone is worried and scared when they first start driving. Little by little it becomes second nature. 😂 Sending you Love a Good Driving Vibes!😊

[@baetoul9275]

Rocket's patience with you during driver lessons reminds me of a scene from one of your trips to Japan when you were jumping across a stream and he was really patient and supportive then as well :) that scene has stuck with me for years now as an example of patience and encouragement within a romantic relationship.

[@furrylittlepeach]

I know exactly what you're talking about! It's the "she's scared" vlog on his channel right?? 🤭✨️ he is very patient! 😭💗

[@elliestar111]

[@furrylittlepeach]

Bahahah 💗💗💗

[@rachieface1989]

This reminds me so much of me when I was learning to drive! I passed like 10 years ago now and I promise it gets less scary 😊

[@RaccoonTour]

omggg i'm also a '92 who really just started driving in the last few years. i used to get so scared about forgetting to check my mirrors/ indicating too but it becomes so second nature and things have gotten easier without my even noticing. keep going!

[@ezpeasylemonsqueezys]

This video has been so comforting to me as a person whos gonna start learning to drive within the next few months but is aware of the possibility of death and not a teenager. Feel like it would’ve been somehow easier as a teen xD

[@furrylittlepeach]

Yes omg i was less nervous as a teen and less aware of dying so i feel like in some ways that fear is good as it makes us alert but also bad because it like..... FREAKS US TF OUT! Just find emoty places to practice!

[@cremeuxkraft9019]

It has actually been so long that my learners expires in a few days 😮‍💨I just have far to much anxiety and haven't been able to afford a car so really didn't see the point and now I'm 30 hahaha. In my friend group only two people drive and the rest of us are chilling. Wish you all the best with driving!!

[@hannrkelley]

This was an amazing video, this is so accurate to SO MANY learning experiences don't even worry. I haven't driven in about 10 years and I'm getting a car in a few months, I'm gonna go through some of this again so this came at a perfect time 😂. Rocket, Nate and Chris are so lovely and patient, you're so lucky to have multiple teachers that aren't an impatient, angry parent 😂. You're gonna be zipping around in NO TIME and you'll be having the time of your life 🥰.

[@kotamundaca3398]

Kudos to Rocket for being so patient and such a good teacher! I couldn’t do that for my bf sadly 😅 bless him hahahahaha. You did amazing girl!!!

[@MsKimchiPanda]

thank you so much for sharing your experience! I'm also 31 years old and have anxiety of driving now... the most embarrassing thing is I already took my test twice and I passed them once but no one could have the time to teach me how to drive and now my anxiety has built up :(. Before I feel like the universe was telling me that it's not the right time for you to drive yet. However, I'm studying again one more time and take the test soon. Wish me good luck! 🤞

[@furrylittlepeach]

Hahahah i sent a screenshot of this to chris

[@Sally-nj5wn]

Highly recommend (if it is an option) to go have rocket drive you to an empty large carpark. That way you can practice where you are on the road, practice parking without other cars but you'll have the lines. And get your confidence up. My mum did that for me when I first started driving as I was such a nervous driver and it really helps. Then she would take me to quiet neighbourhoods to further practise confidence and where I was on the road etc.

[@Sally-nj5wn]

You also don't have to worry about trying to learn everything all at once then, as you can get used to the actual driving part without the stress of others on the road or using indicators etc (in the carpark)

[@dinovrsrobot]

I’m an anxious driver myself. Getting better since I have to commute so far but I used to be so scared of having to sneeze while driving. I feel you, girl

[@NanaSry]

was nervous for you passing your theory test!! It's so interesting to see how like you can learn on your own? here you have to register to a driving school and you have to do a certain amount of hours + driving lessons with a driving teacher , which i feel like would be maybe more stressful than someone you trust! Also I'm 35 and i've never passed my driver's license, i know it would be very helpful for me to get it but i'm too terrified of driving (and also been in a big car accident in my 20s) and also everything surrounding this is so expensive ywy It's still very inspiring to see you go through your fears YwY The part where you went "i can stop at any time" and rocket replied "yes but not when the car's on" got me laughing out loud tho

[@DanicaAndVictoria]

It's so scary doing new things. Rocket's such a nice teacher.

[@DanicaAndVictoria]

The first time I ever drove, it was in a parking lot and I only got up to maybe 5 or 10mph and it was scary.

Anxious driver here! Got my license at 25 using a driving instructor. Did a few solo drives that went well but stress still took over. I don't actively drive so this is inspiring me to try again!

[@helenm1085]

I did lots of practice driving in rural places when I first started learning - my dad would drive us out to the hills and I'd learn how to go fast and slow and do gentle curves and gentle hills and U-turns and stuff before I had to interact with other cars too much (can recommend this as a strategy for new drivers - I only got my licence recently and learned "late")

[@dilaningrum3148]

Omg that “hallo” 😂😂😂😂😂😂 i laugh so hard 😂😂😂😂😂

[@CoffeeeriLP]

Sha’an, first of all: thank you for sharing this! I am 33 years old and have my drivers license for a year now. It’s never too late! Also, I still am very nervous when I want to drive my car, but most of the time I push myself to do it, because I know it is the only way to let it become second nature. My tip though: I drive when I don’t have an appointment so I won’t have to worry about getting late. That way I can take my time 🖤

[@lucafreya9823]

shaaaaaaaaan i learnt to drive over the summer and i was terrified when i started!! there were so many buttons and pedals and rules that i didn't understand and also my instructor was evil!! but you just get used to it and it even gets fun :) i passed in 3 months (and i'm bad at most things), you'll be fine !!

[@bluesummer1004]

I 100% agree with driving being scary! I'm 28 and I've never learned to drive either. I took my theory test but it ran out (runs out in 2 years in the UK) because I was too anxious to do my practical... whilst watching this video I started taking an online mock test to prepare to start learning again!

[@furrylittlepeach]

Yay! This makes me happy - we're gonna learn together!

[@Chelseabychance]

I know you were suffering but the little screams when you first started driving were so funny 😂

[@christina.aisthorpe]

You’re doing great!! My husband re-taught me how to drive after not driving since my test and this reminds me of that, he was so patient bless him 🫶🏼 I was super anxious at first but trust me it gets way better, I’m only stressed about roundabouts now 😂 once you’re used the the pedals and steering it gets much easier

I'm 44 and currently learning to drive as I've been so scared of driving. I've had 7 lessons so far and I'm really enjoying it even tho it's terrifying! I just don't wanna cause an accident it's terrifying! I'm learning in an automatic which I think was Def the right decision for me. Can't wait to pass and then get a car. Fingers crossed I will in the next year. I wanna take my dog on adventures!

[@i.love.pistachio.icecream]

I’m nearly 30 and I’ve been learning to drive for about a year with an instructor and we’ve only just started reversing now so you did so good! I was pretty nervous starting as well but because I am learning in a dual control car it made me feel a lot better because my instructor can just stop the car for me if something happens 😅

I loved the video! This is a subject that is very difficult for me. I got my license when i was 23 and never had a car, so i drove very few times and gave up. I felt so much anxious. The test was easy" because i drove for not long and the parking was good. But then reality came and i gave up. I used to think that i didnt have money enough if i crashed, the worry about other people and their cars, that maybe my father would need to pay to fix if something happened and that my father's cars never had an insurance ( in Brazil it is your choice if you pay insurance or not) so all of this always made me super anxious and the fact that i lived in a different city ( i moved because of uni) i didnt have a car to practice. ( in Brazil we dont have this learner plate, you have to go through driving school and get an instructor after passing the theorical test). Years feeling guilty and ashamed for not driving and depending on friends and parents to get me to places, i decided to take some class after 15 years. I still sweat a lot, think about 749392 scenarios, feel anxious with all the measurements or when having to pass between trucks or someone is behind my car, but what matters is that we are trying and giving our best. It is very scary, my mom always said that a car is a weapon we have to drive for us and for other people. Lots of things to think at the same time ( also, still the majority in my country we have to change gears while driving, which means having to think even more). I found super cute everybody that you picked to be your instructor, calm and and giving you nice words of encouragement. Keep going Sha'an, and dont forget to breathe!

I booked my first driving lesson with an instructor for this week coming, I’m so glad I’m not the only one doing my driving right now. It maybe weird but I feel better you and I doing this at the same time 😊

You did so well!! And Rocket & Chris was such a patient man teaching you. You really got this!! I remembered when I first started driving too - I was 25, very scared to drive cause I always felt like I shouldnt be in control of something so powerful. My brother taught me and he always brought my dog - after I finally passed to be able to drive on my own (similar to the P plates in Aus), I still struggled driving by myself, I could do it but I wasn't confident. I eventually got a plushie of my dog and plopped him on my passenger side and that somehow boosted my confidence. That plushie still sits in my car, 10 years later and I just got my full license last year! (I still don't drive unless I really have to and my husband takes me everywhere in the car, hehe).
