truly HUMBLING to do something as an adult that most 10th graders have already achieved without really thinking about it. Instead of being gracefully low key about it, I leaned into the indignity by making “novice driver” my whole personality for 10 months. I talked about it constantly, I loved bonding with other geriatric novice drivers ( the preferred term) and experiencing a rite of passage so out of step with my contemporaries.
long overdue, but happy to finally start the process of getting my license!!! it’s lot more fun as an adult!!! less stressful than it was at 17 + you get to learn from ur friends who already drive.
literally a crazier high than most drugs.... i've been irrationally terrified of driving for as long as i've been alive. never been in any serious car accidents but even as a toddler i remember some of my first nightmares being of me behind the wheel. now im 21 and ive been practicing for only a month but im no longer having a panic attack when a car comes near me. i feel normal. i feel free. i feel like i can do anything fr. i drive around for fun now in my own car with the sunroof & windows down, i talk while i drive, i change the radio, i sip my slurpee, all things i could've never imagined before because i was paralyzed with fear. i merge lanes safely & even cut off slowpokes. i graduate from permit to official license next week LOL. it feels like finally being part of the class that gets the pizza party this is living!!
I’m 23 and I’ve been scared of driving since I was old enough to drive and yesterday I just got my license on my first try 😋🙏🏼 There is hope out there for everyone
