Not to worry, I was petrified when I started driving! After venturing out on my own though, it wasn't so bad. You'll be thrilled with the new independence that you have, trust me! In no time at all, it'll be like second nature.

awww I was the same way, only I was 21 when I started driving. And I'm still not that great with directions..lol. I guess just practice a lot & try to let go of your fears. I failed my drivers test three times before I passed, so don't get discouraged

I had the same problem, but honestly, with the right training (driving school) you can drive and build confidence from there. I think it's really worth it to take lessons.

It's always intimidating the first few times, but you'll get used to it after a while.

I love driving!
I was horrible with directions, and the best way to learn the roads in your city is to just get a bunch of directions to different places and waste a day and a tank of gas driving around. It's a lot more fun than it sounds.
This summer I'm going to get more practice driving out of the city by going on a road trip with my girlfriends

You sound just like me when I was 16!! I still suck at directions and I get easily confused. My Boyfriend taught me to drive on crazy winding backroads, and he was not the patient type. I failed my test twice. The first time I failed because I stopped at a green light???? The second time I accidentally drove on the sidewalk....oooops.
After the two failures I was even more scared to drive. I got lucky when the DMV instructor I got was a old dirty man. He let me drive around the block once and passed me. I am 26 now and just recently learned to parallel park and back up correctly. My advice...just force yourself to do it!!! Once you get a little confidence it will seem like you've been driving your whole life. Shoooot...I hope we never meet on the road! EEEK~
