DRIVING

LibstheHobbit

hello!

I would like some advice from some autistic people. 

I'm 21 and I have been considering learning to drive but I am anxious about pretty much every part of driving. 

If you are autistic and can drive could you tell me about your experiences?

    That would put me off driving completely. I've reversed my car into someone else with my clutch only in a tight car park so no major damage and I've swung my own car into a car park pillar (my own fault for being a creature of habit at work and expecting to be in one of my usual spaces). I've never been hit by someone else and I'd probably be a wreck if I was!!!

    Three times?! Good gods! I wonder what the average is.

    I have had two vehicles turn left in front of me, destroying my automobiles. (In the UK that would be "turn right.") Though in the USA there is the added problem of the victims of an automobile crash being gunned down.
