    Well first off, I can drive.
    Just not “properly”.
    I can’t parallel park. But it’s not because I’m a bad driver, it’s because I’m from a city where you NEVER have to parallel park. My driving instructor taught me by saying things like “Okay, so turn until you see that light post in the corner of the mirror”. I could drive really good when I lived there, but I’ve since moved 8 hours away into a bigger city.
    I also freak out in traffic, simply because I don’t trust anyone driving around me.
    I can’t merge or lane change because I always feel like I can’t see anyone around me.
    I can’t park in a parking spot because I can’t judge how far I am from objects.
    I feel so hopeless but I want to have my license by the end of August.

    Road Test is on Aug 15th! 8 hours ago

    A week before my birthday, I scheduled the road test. I have been practicing at least an hour everyday. The test is no longer in the parking lot, so I am a little nervous. I have been driving in parking lots, somewhat empty streets and country roads. I hope that I pass! I’ll be 25 soon and I want my license.

    I have scheduled two weeks of instructional practice in addition to the hours that I complete with my family member. It’s kind of a nervous thing, getting behind the wheel, but I am not a coward. I will face my fears and pass the test. You have to believe in yourself! Good luck everyone!

    I am 24. Its time.
    I can do it.
    Through my LD and my anxiety.

    Closer... 1 week ago

    I just took a written test today, rules, first aid and how the engine works. Seems like it worked out well, and well, I’m starting with the driving’s lessons tomorrow morning!

    So exciting, but I get pretty scared indeed!
