Almost every novice driver has anxiety before every new ride. But if the decision to be behind the wheel is made firmly, then you will have to get rid of doubts and fears.
Instructions
Step 1
If you got your license (no matter how long ago it was or not), the first independent trips without an instructor will always be worrisome. Remember that fear is a defensive reaction of the body, and confidence is acquired only through experience and time spent behind the wheel. Therefore, get behind the wheel more often, even if there is no need for it or you feel sorry for the money for gasoline. Each time the excitement will be less and less, and you will gradually be able to switch your attention to other things.
Step 2
Before each ride, if your car is sometimes driven by another person, adjust the rear-view mirrors, side mirrors, and be sure to adjust the seat for you. Improper sitting will contribute to fatigue, and the consequences can be different.
Step 3
Stop watching TV or listening to news from friends about traffic accidents and the consequences of accidents. By doing this, you will only feed your fears, and they, in turn, will begin to discourage you from further travel. And on the road there is nothing worse than an insecure driver - these are the very mistakes they make.
Step 4
Ask someone to drive with you on the roads you want and explain their features. A person who constantly drives on some one route already knows what road signs are there. A beginner, in addition to driving itself, needs to look at the signs, and at the initial stages this creates additional difficulties.
Step 5
Be careful on the road. If any driver breaks the rules, do not get angry, control yourself, because your attention will automatically switch to it. And in the event of a dangerous situation, there will be a high probability of getting into an accident. If you are determined to steer, then be prepared for such drivers, unfortunately, they can be found on the roads.
Step 6
Don't be afraid to sound funny or slow. In case you need a break, stop and turn on the emergency gang. Place a sign on the rear window that will tell all drivers that you are a beginner. In this case, they will react with great understanding to your unexpected maneuvers.
