Question:
I am 34 and never learned to drive. I have a fear of driving. I really want to learn. I live in a bigger city and it is hard to get around and I dont know many people here. I cant really afford to pay for lessons right now, but when I can I want to take them and get my license. Does anyone else have or have had this problem? How do I deal with the fear?
Answers:
I really dont have a fear of anything not even death.
Been there done that.
But really just do it and don't even think about what your doing.
If you think you wont do it.
If it comes to you before you have time to analyze just do it.
That what I do if I dont think I can go through with something.
And its natural to fear things even driving.
Your not alone
I hope I was of some help.
Talk to you later.
And have a good day.

I recommend that you play some driving video games to develop the attitude of racing (or at least keeping up) with other cars. It can be scary if you drive too slowly compared to surrounding traffic, so best to develop that can do attitude from games or any other way you can.

Ask your mommy to teach you. You still live with her, don't you?I am not driving right now. I have a license but since I live in NYC its not even necessary to drive. But it sucks when I go visit home in NJ and you have to drive everywhere because I get stuck depending on other people and of course they never come through. Plus public transportation around me is miserable. If you've made it this far with out I don't think it's worth the cost but it is worth the independence. Go to your DMV or to their website and get a driving pamphlet so you can at last be able to read about the proper driving technique until you can afford lessons

It is a big fear when no one teach you how to drive. I know in my younger years that when you reach that age, you have to learn to drive a car. It is a skill to learn and master. My fear starts when I start driving and either I will have an accident or not. A fear of not to see all of it while driving. A fear that you drive slow. A fear that you are not catching up traffic. A fear that you are not following the flow of traffic.For the safety of school children, shouldn't there be seat belts on school buses?

I condition my mind using the shopping cart that I push in the grocery store. No one will ever know, for what I see, that is an example of a rear wheel drive. I practice turns while shopping. The shopping cart glides when you go to corners fast, scary isn't.
Driveway..blocking an entrance?
When I have my license, experience do count. I practice driving everyday, after work, and when I'm off. People don't always give way to you. I've been honk many times. I learn from my mistakes and keep in mind though. My driving technique is worst, because I am a new driver. My car is scratch because I don't know how to park. My wheels are scratch because I ride the wheel against the curb.
WHAT to do about a neighborhood with a compulsive SPEEDING PROBLEM?
My inspiration for my driving technique is a race car driver. A race car driver will tell you, "If you want to race, go to the race track, not on the public road". The reason for saying that is your life depends on your driving technique, not your car, even with state of the art safety feature. Plus the race track has safety features for high speed driving.
What do red roadway markers mean?
It's been 10 years ago, when I first learn to drive. In fact my friends and families ask me if I want to go out (they mean vacation), which I interpret, they need someone to drive for them. I am very good in directions, and reading the map. There is an online map, a nagivation system, which people use, but still I don't rely on them. I rely only the traditional map. I rely on my driving skill which I still practice driving, because you are going to forget.
