I've had my license for a year now and my own car for about a month, and I'm still nervous when I hit the freeway. Public streets or slow streets are very comfortable for me. I love driving around the neighborhood. Barely any cars. But freeways, there's just something about them.
The top thing: I hate merging. You could say I can just go to the left lane, but I don't drive that fast. I usually stick to the right lane where people merge in from on-ramps.
Also, I hate doing is changing lanes. It makes me very nervous because you don't know if the car on the lane you want to switch to is going to let you or not, and you don't want to block traffic behind you.
Maybe I'm just too concerned about what people will think of my horrible driving?
Also, I don't like driving with my parents. They get mad at all my mistakes. I just tell them you're looking from a different perspective as the passenger, not the driver. So, while it may look fast to them, it's not really fast to me.
Thanks!
