Dyspraxic Adults

I'm just back from my first driving lesson, it's quite a tiring experience! I made one person swerve almost drove into 3 signs when the instructor said move away, I thought he meant the oncoming traffic! I also mounted the kerb doing a manoeuvre I've done loads in car park, I have done some practice before for my confidence. The instructor said at the end though it was good for a first time and I should be a good driver with practice!!

Where you flustered at any point? I began my lessons like that. I felt my heart race at breakneck speed. It got better. And I am sure it will get better for you. Just calm yourself and take it easy. Enjoy the experience.

I passed my test way back in 2010 so I have been driving for about 2 years now.

My instructor has dual controls and heis very understanding. I've just got my car and things are progressing well!
