Overcoming Driving Anxiety in a Big City: My Journey So Far

Learning to drive in a busy city at 23 has been one of the most nerve-wracking things I’ve ever done. The constant traffic, aggressive drivers, and endless honking can really shake your confidence. I still feel anxious every time I get behind the wheel, especially knowing I only have two classes left before I’m on my own. What’s helped me is focusing on small wins—like merging smoothly or handling a tricky intersection. It’s okay to feel scared, but every drive is progress. For anyone else feeling this way, remember: you’re not alone, and it does get easier with practice. How did you overcome your driving fears?
