This is a dumb question but is anyone scared to drive on the freeways? I’m a late learner on how to drive and going on the freeway terrifies me. Any advice?

I remember being so scared of that too when I first started. The main thing I would say is just keep a consistent pace and keep adequate space between the next car, you’ll be okay!

Its really just a matter of getting used to it, and doing it enough times to the point where you have proof that it’ll be fine. After that the anxiety starts to go away

Just avoid the left lane until you get used to it

I was scared but the road was closed due to construction and the other alternative route was the highway and after that I was like I guess it’s not so bad

Mirrors are ur best friend. Get used to them at slower speeds. Freeway driving for the most part is easy as long as u stay aware of the cars behind you and to ur sides.

If it helps, you can usually find a car or truck thats going “slow” (more like the proper speed limit lol) and you can just stay behind them with enough space to be comfy. People who wanna pass will just change lanes
