Nobody is born knowing how to drive; we all have to learn. It is true, though, that some people seem to pick it up more easily than others. Some people seem to have a natural driving ability and pass their test in no time; while others are much more nervous about the whole experience and it takes a while to build up their skills and confidence.
Don’t let your nervousness stop you from learning to drive!
Learning to drive is one of the most valuable and rewarding skills that you can achieve, so try to think past your initial nerves, and picture how you’ll feel when you pass your test and get your first car. The ability to drive gives you the freedom and independence to stop relying on others to drive you around, and it also opens up new employment opportunities.
Deciding to take driving lessons takes courage, and it’s perfectly okay if you don’t feel ready for the challenge at the age of 17. However, if you want to become a confident and competent driver it is highly recommended that you start learning to drive from a young age where possible. We typically pick things up more easily when we’re younger, and if you keep putting it off until you’re much older the nerves will continue to build up too.
Once you pass your theory test and you have your learner’s permit, you are ready to legally learn how to drive.
