Anxiety, Fear and being scared of driving is a common thing around the world which CAN be overcome with a little time, effort and dedication. Practice and professional help is the key to overcoming driving anxiety, from improving your own driving skills behind the wheel to overcoming the fear after a crash in your own or someone else's car or just a fear that you've had for a while and can't truly explain.
Take your time and keep up the driving practice and you WILL get there! You can turn things you don't like into things you enjoy, driving included.

I haven’t started driving but all the things that you have to do really intimidates me. I legit have no driving experience. I feel like an instructor would make me really self-aware about mistakes I make. Being 18, I feel left out whenever I see one of my friends driving but all the stuff you can get pulled up on and all the things you need to do to work the car really puts me off. The entire concept of driving intimidates me and makes me anxious whenever I think about it.

My driving anxiety comes from not trusting my own abilities. I’ve been told by a few people I’m a good safe driver, but I don’t think that or feel that about myself. I got my P1/red P’s license 3 days ago and I’m absolutely terrified to be driving by myself without someone to guide or watch me. I’m trying to get past that and just go on short drives that I know the road, it’s not helping though. I also get really tense and stiff when I’m driving, I really grip the steering wheel hard too

I was a late bloomer.. Was 29 when I passed may 16th 2017, I'm 30 now. I was so nervous on my first test, I was forgetting to push the clutch down to even start the engine!! lol I had to take few mins, breathe and relax, once I was rolling I was ok, I did fail but only by one silly mistake due to nerves, which weirdly made me feel better about retaking my test as I realised I wasn't a complete failure?.. I was still very nervous second time around but managed to keep nerves as down as possible and passed with only a few minors, but the anxiety I do get from driving on my own now is quite bad, roundabouts and people right behind me, making me feel like I need to rush are the main culprits!! I'm getting better though and hopefully soon, will be sorted! Any ways enough rambling, great vid for others out there with similar problems =)

I found out I suffer with severe anxiety in daily life which probably didn’t help as I tend to make big deals out of smallest situations and will think about the smallest detail for days n days and drive myself mad lol but I’ve improved overall and driving wise the change to automatic has helped me out a lot.

N P I don't want to down your confidence but I feel like driving is not for me. After 22 hours or more I'm going to stop doing manual, never got used to it. I know how to drive if I had a car. It's switching gears when turning directions and reversing which is hard for me. I wish I could go back and started doing automatic first not manual. My driving instructor even said go to automatic twice😁😅 But I tell you one thing, don't know where you live but where I live which is Brighton, if you make a mistake people don't get annoyed straight away, they are actually quite patient luckily. But good luck to you👍🏽

Of course they are mainly used to capture road accidents, but you can also look back on your driving. I have one in the back also which can help prevent tailgaters as they see the camera. I drive at 3:00am many mornings so wild animals are always a problem too...

If you commit to driving everyday, at first it is challenging but you get used to it quicker. Also, driving alone is the best in my opinion.

It is genuinely scarier on the motorway with a car that makes a racket at 70 miles an hour, so that’s something to consider when looking for a car that won’t make you too nervous.

Having just moved to the UK from America only a week ago, I have extreme anxiety at the thought of having to drive soon. Today I was told that I have an appointment next week that I will have to drive myself to, I had to excuse myself and take a moment so I wouldn't start crying at the idea. Driving in England freaks me out. The roads are SO tiny I feel like I'm going to get hit by an oncoming car or I'm going to hit a car parked on the road, and the roadabouts TERRIFY me.

Having someone there evaluating you who hates your guts only made it even more stressful. I suggest just getting a friend or someone that you trust and who has a solid driving experience to just come along and coach you...better than any drivers ed honestly as long as they don't pass on any bad habbits they may have.

Thank you for making this video, when I was learning I took my driving test a few times, about 5 ... I have passed now but I'm fearful to drive because of mistakes I made when on my tests (that I failed) I won't say because it's embarrassing tho. I try and rationalise by saying though there was one or two test fails for dangerous stuff, and the instructor intervened that was because I wasn't ready to pass and I just needed to learn some more and I could do it, which is what happened and I passed. Plus I wouldn't make the same mistake again. And the other times I failed (and I'm not saying I should have passed) but if I was to make the same mistake again whilst driving on my own then the worse that would happen is I'd bump the curb softly when parking which isn't a problem. When I passsed I only got 2 minors

I searched round many websites and found plenty of good help by searching google on sites such as Fergs Driver Dismay. I wish you luck and hope you are successful!

Passed my test second time. I've got a 1.4 Seat Ibiza SE 2003 now. The driving isn't so bad to be honest, it's really fine. The only problem is that I'm going to have to have a Black box installed and the policy could go up if my driving isn't good.. It could also go down to be fair but it just makes me feel a little apprehensive..

An insurance provider can't increase your premium even if you score 1/10 or whatever the equivalent is with your provider, you will not get discounts and your renewal after the year is done may be higher but you will not ever get charged more for driving badly. Hope that helps :)

My problem is something that happened before, it was on my 4th driving lesson (doing my 5th tomorrow which is why I found this vid), I was going down a village road, cars parked on my side and the opposite side, my instructor tells me to go ahead and then go into a small gap up ahead to let a bigger vehicle move past going the opposite way, it was a bright red fire truck, and I'm not sure what happened, it was all over so quickly, I don't know if I froze or panicked or what, but the instructor took control, put on the brakes as I was steering into the gap he had indicated and we managed to slow down and stop without hitting anything and the fire truck could get past, same lesson 10 minutes or so later there were 2 vehicles that were stopped on the road for unknown reasons so my instructor told me to put my right signal on to overtake, but as he was telling me to do that I was doing as he said, but I must've panicked and locked up again because I saw another car coming down the road heading towards me, I wasn't sure whether to continue following the instructions and overtake or slow down and stop and I didn't want to disobey the instructor so I started to overtake, again, the instructor corrects my steering and there's just enough room for me and the car going the other way to get past, suffice to say, I had a slight case of the shakes after that for a good 30 minutes, I'm not sure whether I should be afraid or dreading my next lesson, either way it's left a bad taste on my tongue

I got a new ride last week Saturday and honestly the best advice I got was to just keep driving. Out of 8 days, I've driven that car like 6 days and by the 5th day, I could fiddle with the radio(stupid I know) while waiting at stop sign. I wouldn't dare look at it on the first day. Now it's kinda gravy. It really gets easier everytime you drive. The only way is to face it. Great video bro. Oh and another thing, my driving improved much much more when I was alone with no critical passenger. You have to remember all of us will have unique driving styles and everyone wants you to drive like them. As long you got the basics down, you'll figure out most stuff on your own.💯🙏🏾🔥

In the US driving tests are soooo inconsistent! My cousin failed the test the first time. And the second time the car he brought failed, so he had to borrow a car on the spot from a very nice girl. That car failed to, even though it passed 15 minuets ago... it’s all bullcrap, you really have to get lucky like I did to pass it the first time. So don’t feel bad if you fail the first few times. It’s just luck with your instructor.

I don't really understand the phase 'good driver'. Of course I understand what it means, but what does it actually imply? If following all the rules 100% and driving how an instructor would like you to makes you a good driver then so be it, but I don't think most people would agree. Surely a good driver would be someone who knows their car well, what it's limits are, how far you can push it, how to maintain it, etc... Confidence is another factor. You can be a somewhat sloppy driver but I would say that is better than sitting at a roundabout for 30 minutes too scared to pull out, and then crawling when you finally do decide to move. I've loved cars since I was born, and they're amazing things. One of the best inventions to date. On the midnight of my 17th I drove 40 miles with my dad sat beside me. No issues at all apart from a jerky shift or two. And that's mainly due to confidence. I live and breathe cars, so when the time came I just instinctively knew what to do. I know most drivers are unlike this, and it urks me a little bit when people talk of driving as just an A to B activity, especially when they also claim themselves to be 'amazing drivers' (Spoilers: They're usually not) I'm happy for people to be driving, and I'm even happier for those who take an active interest in it even if they aren't a massive fan of the mechanics of a car. But having knowledge of a car really REALLY helps you to be a 'good' driver. Knowing that a clutch is two weighted 'discs' that bind via friction really helps. A couple of my less car-literate friends managed to improve their clutch control by quite a margin after I taught them how the clutch worked.

Got my license in 2012 and my fear never really went away. Sure I'm not as anxious as I once was, but If I can get to some place without driving, I'll be more than happy to do so. When I have to visit my friends who live more than an hour away from where I live my heart still sinks all the time 🤣 and when I have to go somewhere I don't know, even using the navigator, I'd prefer to just disappear at that moment altogether 😂 but in the end I never really had any issue, always drove safely and never crashed, however it still makes me extremely anxious when I have people behind me who clearly would like to go faster.

I am so nervous about driving. I took the driving test maybe 2 months ago and passed first try but its always scary when I normally drive. I feel like my ability to drive is average but when cars are behind me and I am going the speed limit and they are close I think I am going slow and if I need to take a right I put my signal on but I feel like they will just ram into me when I slow down to turn. My parents tell me I am driving fine and if drivers think I am slow they should just pass me but to never speed up because you are right and its just a feeling that moment. Idk I am going to try to think I am right and just be confident and not be pressured by other drivers

Take this as a reason to learn how to check your brakes. Not only will it bring you knowledge but also help you quell your anxiety since you know what to look for before you drive the car. As for driving? It’s nigh on impossible for all of your brakes to fail at the same time. The brakes use split systems nowadays, so if one set doesn’t work, you still have two at the minimum to allow you to stop. In the 0.0001% chance your normal brakes did fail, handbrakes are cable operated, so you can still use your handbrake to bring yourself to a stop if needed.
