How do I avoid trouble with driving?

Lately, I have been making a lot of mistakes with my driving, and parking, from leaving head lights on, without knowing, to receiving quite a few parking fines, and bumping other cars. I am afraid I will do something more dangerous, in future. It doesn't seem to take much effort, to find myself, in some sort of 'driver's' predicament. Am I going through an absent-minded phase?

Hey, be easy on yourself...........we all go through days like this.............hmmmmm Full Moon by any chance?
Don't dwell on it...........just form good habits.........and get a car with a warning sound when you leave your lights on.....I hate that too!
Pay that parking ticket right away! You'll feel like you've accomplished something, and you won't receive a Notice of Licence Suspension in the mail because you FORGOT to pay it......lol...........as for bumping cars..........ummmm, cover that brake whenever you are close to anything........
We all go through these "absent minded" days........usually due to stress, too many things going on at once....etc.

Just try to pay as much attention as you can. Try keeping your radio and cell phone completely off for a while. When you get really good at driving you can then turn them back on.

I think you are not yet used to with car's and roads.
Also I think one incident breaks your confident so does follow the rest.
To get out of this problem
You need more practice and bring back your confidance about driving and car.
In australia some of our aussie bloke carry a sticker in the back of their car.
"Sh*t happens"
It sounds funny but true
Accident happens you didn't do that
Don't think that you will do something more dangerous.
If you get a parking fine again
pay the fine
and remember the place
and forget the rest.

First of all, ask your self:
How old are you?
How many hours did you sleep?
Do you drink excessive amount of alcohol during the week?
Are you in the middle of tough problem?

I just see that you are lack of focus. Try to take a rest and good diet. If this still happens, go to your doctor or even psychotherapy.

Watch out for cops and maybe get a radar detector.

UCANTCME
Beginner drivers tend to focus too narrowly on the road in front of them.

As you gain experience, learn to increase your field of vision in front of you as well as behind. Look around. Use your mirrors to look from side to side.

Anticipate problems by checking your rearview mirror. Be defensive, and assume that other people might not be as good of a driver as you are.

The appropriate time spent looking around your vehicle should equal or be slightly more than the time you spend looking at the car in front of you.
