How did you overcome fear of driving?

[DalagangPinay]

may one year na pala ako natutong magdrive hehe..
Lakasan lang ng loob yan at continuous practice lang..
Good Luck!

[Angelite]

Nakakalito pag palitan na automatic at manual ang dinadrive. Nalilito paa ko hehe. Eventually, matic na lang dinadrive ko. Practice lang talaga.

[jhandee]

mga sis pano nyo na overcome ang fear pag night driving? Yun yung isa sa fear ko aside sa parking

[daisy_duck]

I took driving lessons more than 2 yrs ago but I seldom drive kasi mostly si hubby ang driver and I was not confident then. This year, hubby decided to trade our M/T to A/T which made me decide to drive na. Kumuha ako ulet nang student permit and kahit student permit lang, I was encouraged my hubby to practice driving. I bring my kid to school every morning then practice park. The first time I parked, I asked a guard to park for me, yun nga lang, motor lang daw ang alam niya. I have to call hubby (same office kami) to go down and park the car. I now have mt nonprof license, I would say practice, practice practice. Always check your brakes, it will make you feel more confident. Oh, I forgot, Im from the province so the traffic is not so much dito.

Sis jhandee, its like driving in the morning rin yun ang iniisip ko. Although i dont drive that much at night unless super pagod na si hubby so i drive him home. Super labo kasi ng eyes ko so i was advised by my doctors not to drive at night specially if its raining. But if not raining carry ko naman basta kabisado ko yung daan ng pinuntahan namin. Problem ko kasi at night, i cant see the street signs well, parang blinding sta for me specially those signs at EDSA. So if hubby knows I dont know the place well, kahit pagod sya pipilitin nya magdrive. But if kabisado like Cavite to Pasig, he would let me drive naman kasi alam nya I can go back to Pasig ng di mawawala. But if its like Binondo or Manila area kame pupunta, he wont let me drive, for sure maliligaw kame hehe

I'm now at this stage. I finally got around to getting a nonprof license and I'm still trying to overcome the fear of driving alone. Kapag kasama si husband ok ako, it's when I'm alone that I tend to get jittery. Lalo na kapag iniisip ko ang parking, gahd! Kinakabahan talaga ako huhu. I hate tight spaces. I know the only way to gain confidence is by practicing alone so sana mapursigi ko na talaga ito.

[itcha123]

i overcome my fear of driving inisip ko na mas magastos at mahirap mag commute and mas mahirap ang manganak hahaha. So ayun natuto akong mag drive at mag park😆😂

Hello mga sissy! Bago pa lang din ako nagstart mag drive..
Medyo malaki yung car namin, CRV. Kaya medyo natatakot ako na makabangga. Hahaha 
Matic naman kaya medyo madali, pero may fear of driving pa din.. Any suggestion para maovercome ko yun? lalo na super traffic and siksikan dito sa manila

[twelvth_goddess]

^You really just have to practice. Nung nagstart ako mag drive, super defensive ako talaga. Malaki ako mag tancha and malayo pa lang bumubusina nako. You'll get used to it eventually. Manila traffic is the best way to train your driving skills and patience as well.

[simang]

Until now di pa din ako comfortable magdrive. Kakaloka. Been practicing on and off for the past year and kinakabahan pa din ako everytime! Feeling ko din kinakabahan yung mga tao sa daan na baka masagasaan ko sila haha

[lonely_dad]

practice makes perfect. parang sex lang din yan 

[JayLan]

Practice lang... eventually makakasanayan na lang hanggang maging comfortable ka na.

[RoadrunnerXCX]

dapat araw araw ka mag drive para mawala ang kaba saka set a motivation for yourself..ako iniisip ko noon makakapunta ako kahit saan ko gusto pumunta kapag nasanay na ako mag drive or in other words makalakwatsa hehe. kaya ganon na nga ngyari kapag naisip ko pumunta ng mall, bumisita sa  family at friends go at pinaka importante sa lahat makapag out of town. yehey ang saya lang.

[rhumbafrapp]

Practice lang talaga
Start practicing pag may daylight pa initially pero practice din ng night time

I love the feeling of independence when I drive. Di ako dependent sa uber and sa goodwill ng Una to drive me home.

[kaythrielle]

Practice makes perfect lang talaga.

I am able to drive in highways now. And i can do long drives na rin. Last one was around 330km. I can drive up to 130kph, ave 110kph sa highways.

I remember nung nagstart pa lang ako mag-aral mabilis na 40kph hehe

[charmedjeng]

^wow! 110kph! ako 80-100kph lang sa NLEX, but mostly 80kph. Tapos kinakabahan din, haha.. konting galaw ng steering wheel mag move agad eh so kabado ako pag mabilis ang speed. Baka ndi ko agad maiwas.. Galing mo! 

[kaythrielle]

^thanks sis! sa canada ako nagda-drive kaya siguro malakas loob ko. dito na din lang ako natuto, last year lang.
parang feeling ko mas madaling mag-drive dito kesa sa pinas. hindi ko din alam kung kaya ko mag-drive dyan. Lol

[bratty]

Yes, practice talaga. Unti unti ako nagkaka-confidence in driving. Parking na lang talaga ang weakness ko. Minsan kasi nakaka-conscious yung tabingi na parking, hahaha!

[cosmochick]

Kabado ako at first kasi may phobia ako pero thank God , wala na ngayon. Practice lang talaga.
Ang takot ko na lang ngayon is driving sa highways dahil sa mga truck and dko kabisado dito sa Manila pa. I'm new here kaya dko kabisado mga lugar. But I can say I am confident now mag drive.

[mimiku]

This is something that I need to overcome. Tinuruan ako ng husband ko last time pero I got nervous laging palya ang pagturn ko. Huhuhu. Mas gusto ko sana yung SUV compared sa sedan, Ang baba kasi ng upuan ng sedan, parang hirap ako makita yung sa harap unlike yung SUV ng father ko mataas. Pero sabi ng husband ko, basta matutuo daw ako kahit anong klase ng sasakyan makakaya kong idrive.
