Driving Lessons and Tests

I am starting out my driving lessons and my instructor told me that I am very anxious and I would like to get some tips from anyone who’s autistic and who drives how do you cope and do you have any advice for me.

also does PIP help out with mobility and insurance.

  • Of course you're anxious, it something big and new and scary that you'll be tested on at a later date, driving isn't a natural skill that we're born knowing, why shouldn't you be anxious? Maybe thats a question you could ask your instructor?

    I hope it gets easier with practice, I found I learnt better with an evening lesson than a day time one, I took lots of chocolate with me and bach rescue rememdy to help me stay calm.
