When Failing Driving Tests Feels Like the End of the Road

Hi. I’m almost 18 and honestly, I’m exhausted. Since last July, I’ve been grinding through driving lessons and test after test. Five tries in, and each one just makes me want to quit more.

Why Does Driving in the US Feel Like a Daily Battle?

Struggling With 90° Turns: My Driving Journey So Far

Learning to drive at 34 has been way harder than I expected, especially when it comes to making sharp 90° turns. Every time I approach a corner, I worry I’ll turn too late or too sharply. Everyone keeps telling me to use the power steering, but when I’m going slow, it just doesn’t feel right. I end up throwing the wheel and feeling like I’m about to crash. What really helps is practicing in an empty parking lot, focusing on turning the wheel before I reach the corner. It’s okay to go slow and take your time. Anyone else struggle with this? Let’s share tips and support each other! #DrivingStruggles #LearningToDrive #RealLifeDriving #Cars
