How I did it: This has been the best thing that I have ever done for myself, I never would of thought that I would be driving, now whenever I drive, I actually see the streets that I use to walk to work to, the bus station I use to wait an hour for before I could take the bus to work or school, the supermarkets that I would walk to and from home, and I say to myself, Thank you God for giving me this privilage of driving. I still do these things, but I use to be so afraid of driving that it was sickening. I OVERCAME IT, and thats why I am so grateful that I am driving. How did I do this? We'll with support from family and friends, and a book called "Drive without fear" by Norman Klein. Also since no one was willing to actually help me, I took a class of driving, it was a private class with one on one instruction on the basics of driving. And lots of prayer.

Lessons & tips: When you do get a car, start by moving front and back in your own backyard to get the feel of the car, if you dont have a backyard big enough, go with a friend or family member who has a license and try in an empty parking lot, just move front and back and just go slowly with the car until you get the hang of it.

Resources: 1.Book "Drive without Fear" by Norman Klein.
2.Private Driving Lesson with a one on one instructor on the basics of driving which costs about 40 dollars for 2 hours, even less in some areas.
3. Support from family and friends.
4. Prayer.
