The main cause of fear for novice drivers is self-doubt, i.e. in their driving skills, which gives rise to irresistible thoughts about the possibility of creating an emergency on the road, sharp criticism from other road users and pedestrians, as well as unforeseen expenses and compensation for losses in the event of an accident.
Instructions
Step 1
In the first couples of self-driving, you can ask an instructor or an experienced driver friend to accompany you, give advice and point out your mistakes for a certain fee. In a company with an experienced driver, fear will be much reduced, and timely, efficient advice from an assistant with the least risk will combine your knowledge with practice.
Step 2
Do not be ashamed and hide your little experience and driving skills. If you are not sure about any situation and you have a hitch, it is better to stop the car and turn on the alarm, calmly analyze your further actions and move on. Do not succumb to harsh criticism from other road users, remember - any, even the most experienced driver, was once a beginner like you.
Step 3
Start your independent driving practice on small routes you know well. It is better to make such trips at least every day - long breaks between trips will again begin to give rise to fear, overshadowing your successes from infrequent trips. Gradually, you can add new "horizons" to the routes already well-studied by you.
Step 4
Remember, most traffic accidents are caused by traffic violations. Knowing these rules well will give you confidence and help you overcome fear in many situations, including when dealing with traffic police.
Step 5
Remember, fear is a normal human feeling, inherent not only to beginners, but also to all other people, so do not exaggerate the degree of danger and be always ready to react correctly.
