How do I relax behind the wheel?
|
I am currently learning to drive. But when I am behind the wheel I get really scared and tense up and that is dangerous. How can I relax behind the wheel to drive better?

It's good that you're conscientious of safety. Confidence will come with practice.
I have an affirmation that I use whenever I try something new. An affirmation is something positive you say to yourself. I say, "I can do this". I say it several times to myself in the mirror and think about what I'm going to do, I say it again before I do it. But you have to say it in a relaxed confident voice or it can be a stressor, rather than an assistant.
To learn to relax your shoulders, practice this while not driving. Tense up, take a deep breath, exhale slowly, and then consciously relax your shoulders. Make a mental note of other body parts that are tense and relax those areas one area at a time. Then do it when you get behind the wheel before you start the car. |

Be confident. Believe you're a good driver and know what you're doing and you'll feel way more comfortable. |

Well it's really not a good idea to be too relaxed, because unexpected things might sneek up on you. You have to be more confident and that will make you less scared, but you also can't be an arrogant driver either. You have to find that happy medium. You have to stay up on the wheel and expect the unexpected at all times, but you can also try and be more confident, and that will make driving a more enjoyable experience. |
