its not really the driving, its driving around other people that scares me ;-;
Same!!!
Pink Galaxys & Pastel Stars yes people be out here running red lights and shit reckless ass drivers
Fucking same, I'm more scared about other people hitting me.
Same😥😥
I had a great fear of driving even nightmares til i got my first driving lesson and now im a little better i think its because my instructor is super cool and doesn't rush you , i think ill schedule alot more lessons to help. I believe once you get on the road you'll slowly get better and more confident
Terrified of driving with others. Seeing someone in in my rear view mirrors scares the shit outta me. I feel like I’m a burden.
Shymir Plummer yeah I feel rushed and it give me anxiety when I see other cars coming towards me
Volttys a tip is to ignore them, if you’re going the speed limit don’t worry about other drivers let them go around and if they can’t they can wait. Don’t feel rushed.
xs screams sometimes I get shaky and feel like I’m gonna steer wrong and hit them or go off the street and sometimes I feel like a noodle and if I hit a bumb or a rough road again I feel like if going to steer and hit something
Volttys driving can be quite stressful especially on the freeway. There’s many things you have to remember and pay attention to. It’s pretty annoying and can make you anxious. Like he said just start off slow...just drive to your local store or areas that are close then drive further away.
Same
To everyone who is here & have road anxiety, you got this! everyone has experienced road anxiety at some point, & honestly seeing other people tell their stories about it makes me feel so much better, cuz I’m not alone & it’s a common thing you just have to practice & as cliche as this line is, believe in yourself!
Ty
Thank you!!!
Thanks
Thank you everybody keeps telling me that i need to start driving but none of them help me learn how to drive so its really stressful on me right now i appreciate the encouragement 😊😊😊😊😊😊🤗🙂
Wow, how good this video about ideas for fear fear of driving phobia anxiety paths. Another resource that I also found useful for the phobia of driving in the snow was the Knewreck Drive Now guide: if someone wants to know more, search google
I just honestly don’t trust myself behind a wheel. I’m scared that I will get nervous and hurt others ;w;
Me, too
Vickie Ray broooooo that’s me 😂 and all my friends make fun of me for it cuz they love to drive
Same, I don’t want that on my conscience
Same
I think it’s about balancing caution with confidence.That’s not a bad thing, but don’t let that overtake you.
I'm 29 & just purchased my car to learn and practice how to drive. I've had my permit for 11 yrs, but never had anyone to actually help me long enough to get better at it. I don't have a fear of necessarily driving, but more so just driving in (heavy) traffic. I used to be embarrassed by being as old as I am, but I'm learning and that's all that matters. I'll get better over time, I know it. It doesn't matter how old you are, don't give up, keep trying. I'm doing this for me and I will get better!!
I'm 32 and finally ready to push my fear off😰 I have 2 babies and one on the way ,I NEED to be driving my fear has increased when becoming a mom. I'm scared of an accident and hurting my babies 🥲😓
I'm 30. Recently bought a car for my Birthday. Had my license for almost four years now. I have really bad anxiety when it comes to driving. I haven't been around a steering for so long I feel like I have forgotten how to monitor a car. In theory I can and know everything but every time I get in the car I get so nervous
@@FASHIONGAL89 I think you'll get over the fear the more you get comfortable being in the car. Get familiar with all the functions of the car before you need to use them and do a little everyday, things will get easier. You got this!!!
@@nataleewilliams1287 You're already a step ahead, you have your license. Be kind and patient with yourself. Vehicles and being cautious and safe are huge responsibilities, no matter how many others act like it isn't.
I’m 26 and I’ve never been taught but I’m purchasing my first car soon to teach myself
People scare me. They drive crazy and try to run you off the road. No one drive the speed limit.
Shon9tilR agreed. The people here drive so badly, that’s what makes things scary :///
@@tessaneko people in my area are terrible drivers too
True, there are some crazy drivers out there
Lol I was reading this comment right when he said “driving is actually very safe”
Crimson Avian Lol lies
One thing that has helped me besides watching videos on RUclips is when I am driving I like to say out loud what is happening while I’m driving for example “ok that person in front is turning” “I see it’s about to be a red light so prepare to break” “ I notice that car waiting to jump in”...... I hope this helps people.
This actually does help. Thank you.
It's like your really focusing when you do that.
Good to know that i'am not the only one who's talking to my self while driving.
This is so me omg !
That actually helps, I talk to myself while driving. It eases the driving anxiety
I am the type of person who gets calm with talking to myself too, but my instructor is my dad. When I tried to do this he justed tried to tell me that I can't do that and I need to keep things in my head. But I can't though? It helps me calm when I keep in control what I'm doing by saying things outloud smh 😒
I'm almost 20 without driving because I'm afraid to get someone hurt. I'm finally at the point in my life where I'm ready to do this. Thank you for this.
People are actually afraid of driving cars? Lol I don’t get it 😂 my mom had her license and she never drives she is scared shit because one time she drive straight into a tree outside our house 🤦🏾♂️ I’m tryna drive but my mom scared for me like wtf
You whippin now ??
Dude my mom never wanted to teach me and never lend me the car and every time I did convince them they just scream at me and I swear tht built up so much anxiety I feel like ima fuck up every second
@@king-qi2ks I feel it💀
You got it I have experience of driving that why I’m not really that scared like that
I think the reason why I have fear is because of Drivers education class, literally all they talked about is car accidents and that most of those accidents are teens and that most of them die from accidents
Wow thats not very helpful at all no wonder your scared to drive i would be too
SLATT XO DUDE SAMEEEE OMFG
Yep
hahahaha sameeeee wtf
You haven’t experienced true driver anxiety until you’ve seen an rsa ad. For the love of god don’t watch them
I used to be embarrass because of my age 38 and I have been taking lessons on and off which are expensive. I could not even put the key in the ignition. Fear is a horrible mental sickness. Now I drive but need to take control of the anxiety when people tailgate. I had a garbage truck driver constantly yell at me you failed you failed. Out loud while I was driving I became nervous but said outloud I am bless. We live in a world where people will discourage you instead of encouraging you. The moral to my story is continue to press forward. Encourage yourself! I believe one day I will have my license!
Who ever read this I now have my license God is good.
I am so happy I ran into your comment. Now I don't feel as bad about myself. I am 26 years old and I am too embarrassed at my age for not driving, let alone not having my driver's license. I'm trying my damn hardest to get everything down pat but it can get discouraging and hard sometimes especially when you have people who say they would teach you but never do it or people that's willing to teach but yet they are very impatient and get frustrated easily when you make a mistake. Not sure when that day will be but I will have my driver's license and my skills will improve for the better.
@@TheMizzvantiYou'll get it. 👍👍 32 and I don't have my license. I 'm taking driver ed right now.
@@cassandrabrooks5185 so how do u get places? I just want to know cause im kinda in the same boat but younger..
@@sisigs4820 My siblings.
im a new driver, a month old driver and im still scared to drive but i always talk to myself that i can do it, and i will drive safely ,
Just be confident, be careful driving and you'll be fine😊😊😊
Belinda Mortera how are you? Did it get any better?
I passed my test 3months ago, bought my car yesterday and drove today, honestly the only thing that makes me nervous is a car behind me 😂😂, but I spoke to my cousin about it and he said as long as you're driving safely and within the speed limit don't let the driver behind you make you nervous, just put on your radio/music and don't give a crap about them
I was comfortable driving when I was originally learning but my father while teaching me yelled at me and terrified me, now I’m 25 and yet to get my full license. I’ve seen and been in too many wrecks and I’ve dealt with aggressive teachers too much to be comfortable, but I feel like I’m lacking in basic freedom because I don’t drive myself anywhere.
I’m in the same boat. I’m going to keep trying though. Try getting comfortable with driving around your neighborhood. I wish you the best of luck.
Same here I’m 26 and have so much anxiety but it’s becoming harder to have the freedom to go when I need
I'm 35 years old and just now finally learning to drive due to a history of seizures and anxiety, which have gotten under control in recent years. I went for a driving lesson the other day and the instructor yelled at me for turning the wheel too hard, holding the wheel wrong, etc etc. I just cried. I need to be driving soon so that I can attend my clinicals to become a nurse. I've spent much of my life either in cities or as a hermit stuck at home, but I'm ready to get out in the world and make a difference. I encourage you to face your fear sooner than later. It seems it wasn't long ago that I was 25 and afraid to drive. You got this!
Same, my first two driving instructors tripled my anxiety about driving now. They were both so mean and didn't answer my questions when I asked about how to do certain things when driving. Like how do I turn better. He said, just go.
@@bluskie605 I just finally got my license 2 days ago and I found it more helpful to watch RUclips videos that were super detailed after 4 on road lessons I started practicing by myself! The channels I watched were smart drive test and helpful diy both guys are good at explaining and showing with multiple cameras!!
Im scared of driving but i still passed my driver test first time🤙🤙
JumboTron Gamez Great job!I hope I pass mine too
I have spent months researching into how to overcome fear of driving and found a fantastic resource at Roys Quick Fix (google it if you're interested)
Ok, congrats! Now that you actually have your license do you go out and drive?
Me too bro! I passed the first time as well! :)
Same today I have to take my sister to the university for the first time and I am scared asf 🤣🤣
Glad I’m not alone lol
Nomadic Spirit lol yup
Me too
1. start slow and work your way up
2. realize driving is actually fairly safe
3. know that being a defensive driver increases safety
4. learn the controls before you are stationary (parked)
5. driving an automatic car might reduce your fear of driving
6. start with someone beside you in the passenger seat
7. take driving lessons
8. eliminate distractions
9. do what makes you comfortable
10. after learning confidence, get out of your comfort zone
I can drive just fine in MY town. My problem is driving to a new town. My FEARS are getting lost (missing a turn). Me slowing down traffic because I don't know if I'm in the right lane. And once I am lost not knowing what to do. You can't just ask people for help anymore without them getting annoyed. I am up in age and still stuck in the same town. It is depressing.
Wow. You just described my life. My boss is moving my job to the next city and I am seriously thinking of getting a new job.
Or when the person yells at you and insults you
girlnotforsale I don’t think I know a girl that has no gps on her phone. And I’m sure if you asked for some help cause you were lost people wouldn’t get annoyed lol
What about a gps?
@@OGHadesFTF what does being a female got to do with gps? shit comes with every phone and car nowadays lmfaoo
Take a deep breath before pulling out of the driveway
That's what my wife tells me to do it helps
rhe mea exactly
I have a fear of turning into neighborhoods where the cars are parked on both sides of the street
That makes two of us
I live in front of a public school, I feel this so much :((
the side view mirrors always get me so bad idk how far or close traffic i feel like the side view mirror will touch some bs its annoying
I have that too. I am always thinking like what if I hit one of them by driving to close?
❤
I have a huge fear of driving! It’s been 4 years since I got my license and have only drove a few times. I live on a busy road it makes it so hard to get out of my drive way without being so scared. What makes it hard for me is I always think about what people think when I’m driving like if I take to long to turn people will beep and it makes me more nervous. I watch all these videos to end my fear I feel good but once I get in the car it all comes back. I really want to drive but I just get to scared sometimes I feel my legs shaking I have these thoughts of just wanting to give up. I just want to have no fear and be happy when I’m driving.
mika mi
Still haven’t gotten over my fear it’s been another 5 months and I haven’t set foot in the drivers seat. Just sitting in it while it’s off scares me. Thanks good luck to you too hope you get over your fears before me haha :)
@@mynameisjeff4967 how are you now
@@NN-ej9lk how are you now
Me toooooooo!!!!! Literally the same. Finally going to just get a car a like to motivate me :(
You need to have a buddy inside your car for a while, until you get accostumed. Get a good boyfriend, a husband, a friend, a roommate, co-worker. In my case when I learned, and then started driving, my ex husband was excellent was always with me and taught me very well, then one day he said, "it's time you go alone from now on". I had problem with directions, like how to get to specific places. I know one case where the whole family took turns to go with the learner everywhere, and 2 years past, the father said: "you go alone from now on, and this day was raining pouring. Anyway all this insecurity drama past, and now the daughter drives even to the moon. Everybody has it's pace. But don't give up, do slowly but consistently, and seek results.
Are you a driving instructor? If you're not you would make a great instructor.

I’m 19 and I’m scared to death to drive !😭
sameeee
lol im 24 and im still scared so yea, also give me an update have you started driving or permit/license?
@@Eddy12700 I have
@@Eddy12700can i get an update
I’m 20 years old, I’ve been in multiple car accidents throughout my life (none in which is was the drivers faults, always was hit by another person) and I’m beyond terrified of driving. It’s a hassle on everyone in my life and I can’t seem to get behind the wheel without shaking and crying. Someone help 😂🤦🏼♀️
Thank you dude!
I’ve not been in any accidents and I passed my driving test with flying colors and with ease and I’m a good driver, but I get so nervous because I am terrified of the idiots I share the road with.
Jacqueline Bennett yes! That is my fear as well. I am from new hampshire and everyone treats the road like a nascar track. If speed is 30mph you will have people zooming by at 40+mph! There is no "3 second rule" here either. If youre just at the speed limit there will be people tailing your ass, like 1 second behind you. So that requires me to speed up to turn because they won't have time to slow down if i slow down without hitting me! It is getting ridiculous! I hate driving. I am learning because I have to take my kids to school soon but I am worried about all these horrible drivers
@@jadedblue04 were I'm from it's illegal to tail gate or rush people on the road there's been to many accidents so they just put they just made it illegal. But that sounds terrifying.
Sarah Anderson dude , same ! I got in a wreck at 17 and it was bad. It messed me up to the point where being in a car period scares me. Now I am just tired of depending on others and wasting money on Uber’s , so I’m taking my drivers test tomorrow to kick fears ass, don’t let anyone rush you , it happens when YOU ARE READY ! However I hope it happens sooner than mine did ! I wish you the best Sarah , don’t feel bad about it , life happens hun
Switching lanes and highways can bite me
H F 😩😩😩😩paralyzing fear of switching lanes and highways !
I'm kinda nervous/anxious right now. Cause tomorrow I have driver's education, and it's the highway session.
And last session I was already messing up on, not changing lanes smoothly😩
@@anonymous_yo_mama6728 Mine's this Monday. I'm little nervous.
I remember when I took my first lesson on the highway the scariest part was entering the highway and keeping up to speed. Switching lanes is not that hard to be honest.
@@Sportieguy True. Entering the way was honestly the hardest part, and then you gotta figure out how fast you have to go, in order to enter.
OK BUT WHY ARE YOU SCREAMING AT ME
SkinnyPenis SKINNY PENIS!
Cause I am so scared 😫
Here's some tips for how to overcome fear of driving
1) Take control of your life.
2) Learn about the power of the mind.
3) Follow the path of people who have already overcome the fear.
I got these tips from the Roys Quick Fix (check it out on google) definately the most incredible course on becoming wealthy & successful i've seen.
hey ,if anyone else wants to discover how to overcome phobia of driving a car try Sovallo Fearless Driver Fixer (do a google search ) ? Ive heard some interesting things about it and my cousin got cool success with it.
I\'m not sure but ,if anyone else needs to find out about driving anxiety try Tarbetti Car Coping Tutor (just google it ) ? Ive heard some awesome things about it and my cousin got cool results with it.
I'm 18 and I feel awful not being able to drive, especially since most of my friends can drive amazing
I have anxiety of driving after an accident which T boned us ... I feel scare of speed and I really freak out on highway trucks and speed. That anxiety got built up gradually . I am trying to overcome it and thanks for all the tips . really you are a good teacher .
this is why i get scared bc people YELL AT MEE AGGHHHHHH
People yell at you while driving? That is not cool
214. TG lol yea ppl b so mean sometimes
Ughh my sons father lol
FELT
These two women honked at me while i was turning to and pull up on our driveway. She was expecting me to drive faster than 45 when i was turning. People r just mean.
I’m actually decent at driving but I can not drive wit other ppl I don’t know why but it causes me so much stress and anxiety that I can’t drive correctly but when I’m alone ima smooth sailor
Same to me 😥
Shauna zawadi omg practice with teddy bears in the seats😭goodluck
Omg same! I thought I was the only one who thought this way but glad to not be alone!
I'm the opposite, i feel like if i don't have someone near me i can't have help in case i crash/panic etc
Finally, someone else who gets it. I prefer to drive alone bc I feel so uncomfortable and nervous with having someone else in the car with me.
I had fear of driving before because of the cars behind me and not confident at all. Been using taxi drivers to get home from work and dealt with them being rude and waiting for hours made me tired and upset. So I told to myself that I am going to drive in able for me to go to work and be comfortable in my own car and get home early. I overcome my fear on the road. I still need to keep practicing in able to complete the hours they required at the BMV.
I'm 26 and I really need to learn how to drive. But I suffer with migraines that affect my vision. So, I'm so nervous about that. I got my first permit when I was 17 and it ended up expiring when I turned 23. Now, I have another permit and it's about to expire next year. Need to get my nervous shit together.
I can’t turn around corners without going over a curb, so that’s fun
daquavis SAME
Curb*
And you’re just turning too soon
yeah turning is really "knowing" the space of the car just practice turning in a parting lot and turning into empty parking spaces
Am 31 Years Of Age In Never Really Took A Drivers Test I Had So Much Fear Of Missing Up In It Never Helped When Nobody Wonna Teach You That Really Sucks It Makes You Not Ever Wonna Drive Anything But Throughout My Life My Holy Father Has Shoed Me How To Do Almost Everything In I No For A Fact He’ll Help Me Overcome This Driving Thing #Soon
I’m 31yrs old and just passed the drivers written test yesterday. Thank you for your videos, very helpful.
I'll have somebody beside me. The one who's relax in carrying instructions, it helps a lot :)
I’m 28 in nyc and I tried to learn last year. No one was patient with me, and until I started taking Ubers often I’d be in a car less than 10 times a year on average
Just started learning how to drive, my biggest fear is getting hit or crashing into someone or something, my grandma is teaching me she is a great driver with lots of experience but, she is not calm and she yells a lot it makes me very stressed and panic even more.
Reading the comments and seeing that I’m not the only one make me feel little bit better about myself 🙏🏻
one things that's helped me a lot is, do the things that scare you often.
I'm ok to drive in empty road, the moment I see the vehicles and people movement I feel terrible immediately. But I could relate to one of your tips, it's the manual car which adds oil in the fire - my brother says I will do better with automatic car. Great video. Thanks
Getting a relaxed and cool headed driver companion is the best tip. Tried and tested!
I've got my learners and I'm practicing with the instructor ♡ the more practice I will do the less fear I will have ♡ 😊
Exactly, practice makes perfect. In time, you will master your driving skills in time. Good luck☺☺☺
What car did you practice with. Auto? Manual?
My instruct is so mean and is always shouting that’s why I hate going
When he said said driving is actually very safe my fear vanished also I just drove for the first time in a parking lot its not as bad as I thought as long as you pay super close attention
I got my license at 17 and I was okay with it even though I kind of drove crazy when I drove my mum places. Then one time we were crossing the freeway and I didn’t look close enough to see there was a car driving past that was *close* and I went ahead and tried to cross then as soon as I realized I would’ve almost hit them I pressed the break and avoided hitting them. But that was the moment that made me super scared to drive, my mom got onto me about it and I realized how dangerous it is and the possibility of dying if I don’t pay attention 🙁 ever since that incident I am scared. And it sucks because I live right next to a freeway, I have to cross it or take the other road which is longer way but at-least I’m safe. I’ve barely drove since then. And it sucks because I’m 18 now and my parents are pressuring me to start driving because I will need to drive myself to college and work because they will be busy 😕 wish I lived in a state that had train stations. ugh. I hope I get better 🙏🏻
A semi passed by me(traveling in the opposite direction) and blew a gust of wind up and made my hood pop open a little and I literally screamed😂
Sunflower oof my car is a basemodel Kia Rio 2011......
I would have too.
I have a fear of parallel park and driving in the freeway. I know how to drive very well ,but the only struggle is parking my car.I will go do my behind the wheel Next month because I fail the 1st time.I have extreme anxiety 😣
Can't do it because my driving instructor keep yelling and tapping my shoulder and he screamed : speed up SPEEEEEDDDD UPPP!!!!
I kinda feel like a bad instructor when I was 16 is what caused my driving phobia. Can you request a different one?
my instructor is the same way it makes me not want to go out and practice with him
Im bouta fail.... Again cause the same thing
I have my licence for 4 years now and I have driven very few times. I wanna start again and I'm planing on taking classes but honestly the idea of me geting up one day and just geting in the car alone to go somewhere feels crazy! I really wanna make it but my fear makes it look so difficult!!
Another thing you can do is also visualize how you would drive in a situation before you go out driving. Deep breaths. And YES driving lessons help alot.
My problem is at highway. Oh boy I got so anxious. I don’t have not problems driving local but when it comes to drive on highways it’s the worst to me! 🙄
me too
thank god am not a lone
OMG just like me. I can drive in town, but when it comes to highways , I get crazy. If there is someone with me, that's ok, but if I am alone, I get so anxious that I end up having a panick attack
yeah i think that would be anyone
I know I am trying to get over my fears/anxiety to get onto major highways. I am fine driving to and from work (which is 15 mins from home) but beyond that I get so anxious.
My reason for wanting to get over it is myself and my friend of ten years who I met online want to meet and we wanna go out and have fun and do a trip and I wanna be able to be independent so we can do it without anyone else (i’m 27 and I rely on my mom heavily for getting me around because of my fear and I am tired of feeling like a burden)
Being confident beforehand is a big bonus.
Thank you so much for normalizing being afraid of driving. it's hard to even talk to people about, because people just want to judge and talk shit.
Exactly
I went out of my comfort zone today and drove into the city (Tampa) and on 2 highways. It was also a 2ish hour trip, which is the longest I've ever driven alone. I took some wrong turns, but I feel so much better about driving
This was very helpful! I will be 35 on the 3rd of next month, I have a licence and my nearly 17 yr old son just got his license and I have a fear of driving I am overcoming in Jesus name. Thanks!!
I have a car and a drive license but I am struggling to push myself to drive. Thank you for the tips I will try to apply it
I live in an overpapulated city, the streets are very narrow and It's crowded all the time. I didn't have any fear of driving. Until my dad was driving one day and a small bus hit us, it was very bad accident. The man hit the passenger seat where I was sitting. The ambulance came and took me to the hospital. Thank God, I stayed sound and safe, but since then I am terrifed of driving.
I'm 25 and I just got my license a few months ago and I just got a car and driving still makes me nervous. I'm okay with driving in town, still need to work on turning and stuff, but what really makes me extremely nervous is switching lanes, highway driving, and passing. I'm also not very good at parking so I park away from everybody if I can. I feel way better when someone's in the passenger seat but obviously that can't happen all the time. It's definitely a learning experience.
I'm in my early 20s, already have a driver's license, and I still get anxiety when driving. My brother got his license at age 16 and by age 17, he drives on freeways like it's nothing.
i have a fear of driving and im 30 years old. While growing up (as a child/teen) i have been in a few car accidents some not so bad just a fender bender but my last accident was with an ex and that one almost cost me my life. That is when i lost my will to drive. I am now slowly overcoming my fear and i take my test on Nov. 16th hoping that i pass. Parallel parking is also not my strong suit and i am still practicing it till this day. You videos have really helped me and really broke some things down to where i can understand them. Thank you!
I have my first driving test next week, so scared of driving!! I think it’s worse now that I’m 27, I’ve built it up in my head as this thing I could never do. Now I have a child and realize I NEED a car, but still so scared of messing up😶 I’ll remember the ladder thing when I start 👍🏼👍🏼
I like the idea of overcoming fear by listening music or having persons in the car with you
Thanks for this. I took driving lessons for both manual and automatic and I really think automatic did lessen my anxiety with driving. One thing my instructor also told me then is that confidence is needed to drive. So feel confident already before getting behind the wheel!
Hello, my name is Daniel(32) and almost two years ago I bought my first car.I had the driver license six years before but I almost did nor drive at all until I had my first car.I had such a hard time to understand how the car works, how to change gears and first of all how not to stop the motor by not knowing how the clutch works.
I had a hard time keeping myself motivated to continue driving having this kind of problems and one day I searched on youtube a video that eventualy will help me with my fear of driving that I developed.
I found your video. So I did what you said and it helped me a lot.
I wanted to say thank you.Now I know my car 100% and I don't have any fear of driving.But I had and your video helped me.
Thank you!
Thanks for the tips. I have had my license for over 20 years. I have driven a total of 10 times including driving lessons. I just get too freaked out. I am thinking about trying to drive again. It would be nice to finally be able to drive a car.
Thank you, I watched your videos and went driving today after almost 3 months . Just saying thank you for helping me overcome my fear. I kept reminding myself that driving is a normal, safe activity that everyone does. Sounds silly but it works
I am loving your tutorials for new drivers thanksss
Driving scares me to death😪But I'm slowly overcoming this...practicing daily...Thank you for this video
I'm so thankful for your videos . You make the best video ever!!!
People around me make me feel more anxious because I think I'm doing something wrong all the time. And I'm scared especially in neighborhood areas where there are cars parked slightly on the road or an obstacle (including pedestrians) that I don't want to hit OBVIOUSLY but I just get stressed. Also people really should start abiding by the speed limit and not put pressure on you when you're driving the exact speed limit.
I needed this video. I'm JUST learning how to drive and taking lessons. It's getting better day by day, but my anxiety gets me worked up and I don't want that. I want to feel CONFIDENT that I know what the hell I'm doing lol.
wow you got me thinking of better ways of thinking about driving. i am already passed by driving in a parking lot. now is getting over the fear of being around people
I'm 22 and have just gotten my permit for the fourth time. I've just been too scared to practice. I wish I could teleport because driving is just so intimidating.
Same 😭
I’m 19 and only have my permit. I’m really scared to drive too. I wish you luck on getting your license.
I keep trying my best not to be stressed but god knows I feel like I have a ball in my stomach from stress. I even keep getting nightmares of crashing the car and when my dad or siblings teach me they dont understand this irrational fear that I have.
I have my driving license since last year and I'm more than ever terrified to drive alone! That's my problem.
Thanks for sharing it helps alot as beginer learning to drive.
I haven’t drove in about 2 years and I’m finally getting my new car today so watching your videos have been a good refresher lol I’m a little scared because I have gotten in a few bad accident as a passenger so I have a little fear I know it will pass but I just take it slow let the other people pass you is what I’ve always been told!
I would say in general, but especially in this time where people tend to be preoccupied (especially with their phones) and not aware, teach the new driver to develop their situational awareness. This is probably one of the most important aspects of driving. Once you are comfortable with what is going on around you you will gain more confidence because you can more easily manage the situation. This will result in learning the basic techniques much easier. You're mind won't be stuck on fear of (fill in the blank).
Really been learning a lot from the guy. He really should get a lot more credit than this. So humbled and grateful for his help to others get over fear of driving and teaching me a lot.
Thanks, I'm just learning how to drive and this is just what I need.
I like this a lot. The more I watch your videos the more better of a driver I can successfully be.
God bless you my brother, youve been a big help to me
I started watching your videos today!!! Thank you for all your awesome driving videos!!!
Fourth Tip is really so true. Thanks.
Thank you for sharing these driving tips! I have a horrible phobia/fear of driving and I have to start learning how to drive. I am TOTALLY not looking forward to the whole experience! I want to face my fears and eventually learn to drive my husband's semi trucks as that would be quite an accomplishment for me! But every time I get behind the wheel I shake and sweat and panic so bad that I get blurred vision and bad judgment. I will definitely be taking your advice and starting out at the bottom of the "ladder" as I undertake and attempt to master driving.
I can actually say, Your tips have helped me out a great deal.. Thank You!
This actually helped man thank you
I always come back to watch your videos when I get nerve enough to get in a car again! I live in NY so it's not often that I'm behind the wheel. Thank you for all of these videos over the years :D
hey everybodyyyyy
Julien Khachas 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Lol
I can literally hear this
The crazy part for me is I’m a great driver. I trust myself...i just don’t trust other drivers. My fear of getting rear ended is real
Put very long metal spikes on the rear of your car
Thank you so much for making this video! This video gave me the confidence to drive on my own to without feeling any anxiety and I'm getting my car very soon 😌💯
Your channel is really amazing and helpful to everyone, hope you keep making videos and stay safe and healthy!!!
Thank u for your videos..Great job
I think it’s starts off as precognition to be wary of the road and surroundings, then it starts to to turn into anxiety. So having an active and cautious mind while driving is a good thing, but once you let that be the source of your fear, it’s become unhealthy.
Very helpful tips! Many thanks!
Very practical. Moved around and reversed in a parking lot. I was shaking glad i did. Also agreed changing over to automatic reduced some of the fear. Next target is going down the road.
My family doesn't teach the young people to drive. And we live in a small town with no driving school and no driver's ed classes. My dad took me to the DMV so I could get my permit but I can't get behind the wheel of any one's car to get road experience. Idk when I'll actually get my license. At this rate I'll end up having to buy my own vehicle just to take the road test.
How about considering a "defensive driving" strategy. In many countries the problem are not the rules but really bad attitude drivers, poor ethics in the road, road rage etc. not really technical. But I really commend your efforts on all of these I watched.
It's 24 years since I last got behind the wheel. I was in a hit and run, but aside from the accident I always had issues with maintaining my speed
Thank you. These tips calmed my nerves.
Pass my test last Wednesday
