a message to those who feel like giving up on driving...

I had an intensive course in 2013 and was to test standard and confident, sadly failed because a boy-racer sped past and I had to break harshly and then I sped due to that hiccup and obviously had 2 serious faults. I did my 2nd test in a different area due to stupid haste to pass, failed that test while trying to change lanes. So speed up to 2018, booked 15hrs to pass my test and re-jig my memory. Completely horrific and way too stressful to learn now, I'm unable to deal with roundabouts and independent driving with a sat nav is even worse, I have cancelled my 3rd test and given up driving. Moral of the story, learn as young as possible and keep persisting test after test if you fail. Leaving a huge gap between trying to pass is horrific, I'm now unable to pursue the career I've dreamt and studied for and will be that person who who relies on a bus.

Sounds so horrible, being a nervous person I can understand you and the driving exam heightens your nerves
Don't give up though, if driving lessons are too expensive it might be better to get a family member to help you and have learner driving insurance

Mate, you get people who have been driving for years and still have accidents. Doesn’t matter if you do 20 lessons or 200, accidents happen. Your just jumping on the page calling people ‘idiots’, keep your daft opinions to yourself
