    yes it is normal and you will get better but its best to have someone show you that is not related the less you know them the better it is and you wouldn’t be sooo nervous.

    “Most” of it is all common sense. You need to read the driving manual to learn all of the rules, then you will feel confident on how to drive. Also alot of practice with an adult would be helpful.

    It’s normal. I hate driving. A lot can happen behind the wheel, there is a lot too look out for… and A LOT of idiots on the road. Look up a driving school and take some lessons. You usually end up getting your license this way faster anyways because they know the correct way to drive. That way you don’t get all confused and you know how you are really supposed to do things that other people normally don’t do. Plus driving lesson will also calm you down when you are behind the wheel, give you more confidence and prepare you better for your road test.

    It is normal to be nervous. But you need to try and relax, you will be more successful if you do. No worries!!

    Yes, it’s very normal to be nervous. Something I think helps is to get used to the feel of the car. Go to an empty parking lot in the evening and just drive slowly around. Practice parking, turning, stopping, starting, even weave a bit if you feel brave. Getting the feel of your car really puts you at ease driving it on the road. When I first drove I felt like the vehicle was going to roll if I turned it so driving in a parking lot really helps get over the strangeness.
