Overcoming My Driving Anxiety: Real Talk From a Nervous Beginner

I’m 19 and still don’t have my license, which honestly feels super embarrassing sometimes. I know how to drive, but every time I get behind the wheel, my hands shake and I start sweating. The last time I drove, someone sped past me and flipped me off just for following the speed limit. That moment stuck with me and made me even more anxious. My friends say I should get a professional instructor instead of learning from family, but money’s tight. If you’ve been through this, how did you push past the fear? Any practical tips? Please share your stories below—I’d love to hear them! #DrivingAnxiety #LearningToDrive #OvercomingFear #Cars
