Passed my driving test a year ago just bought first car and i'm so nervous to drive it?
-
Basically I passed my first test a year ago, passed first time, no problems, but haven't driven since, finally could afford to buy first car so i did, only a small 1 litre car, but I'm so nervous and anxious to drive it, i have took it out for a drive on my own, but i stalled a few times and even though i have P plates up, other driver got quite annoyed and it has really put me off (this was a Sunday afternoon), so I'm wondering was anyone else like this? And what are the best times of the day to go driving? I live in London and in a busy area. Please help, thank you!

Answer:
Whatever you do do not consume any alcohol before driving. Get a friend to sit by you whilst you drive around for a few hours in an area that you are familiar with. Everybody goes through this experience so don't feel that you are alone with this problem. Good luck.

DO NOT DRINK - even a small one can put some people over the limit Better to get a couple of refresher lessons with an instructor, maybe in your car.

You could go with a driving instructor for a couple of refresher lessons to get your confidence back. Alternatively on a quite morning (Early Sunday) go out in the car and drive round the block and then back and park again. After a few minutes to get your thoughts, go round the block again and back and then try going a little father each time until you regain your confidence. I was a driving instructor for twenty years and you will find that if you do a little more each day you will soon get back into driving. Good luck
Go out early on a Sunday morning , try to find some industrial estate to practice on, it will be deserted on a Sunday.

sounds like you need more practice till you are confidant of your own abilities

have a little drink before, just a small one so your still under the limit. this will get you relaxed and the whole driving will become a lot smother. i know it doesnt sound very good but helped me plenty when i started to drive.
