Drivers of .org, is it hard to drive a car?

[Deleted member 85052]

I'm getting a driver's license. Kinda anxious.

idk man i’ve only ever gotten practice on the road, never been on the freeway

 

[deadstock]

At first maybe. But only manual driving

Driving an automatic car is like playing mario kart wii

But do you think it's hard to park a car or make it turn?

It really just takes practice. Then it will be easy eventually. You shouldn't stress urself beforehand

Manual it takes time to get a feel of thr clutch. Automatic is a peace of cake. Literally can learn driving in a few days on an Automatic

I hope, man. I see every other person doing it, so it shouldn't be that hard.

parking & turning is relatively easy but speed control and changing is where i struggle. mind you i only practiced like once every few weeks. wasn’t really committed to the act and if i was actually eager to learn i could’ve in a few days

Start with a small, cheap car first.

Not hard, but the driver's exam can be difficult to pass in the Netherlands. You will need quite some driving-lessons here to drive in a safe, confident manner for you to pass the official exam and get a license. This can cost thousands of euros.

In every other country in the world, it's much easier to get a license.

For example: In the Netherlands we have a shit-ton of cyclists on the road and they are considered a 'protected traffic participant'. Which means that if you are in a car and hit a cyclist, you will always be considered liable for damages. It's your responsibility as a car-driver to adjust to cyclists even when they drive like complete retards and don't uphold traffic laws.

super easy, just drive often and you'll build confidence

automatic is easy
manual takes more time

 

[Angutoid]

Just buy a motorbike if you live in a developed country

No it aint hard, just drive as much as you can till it registers in your muscle memory and you’ll be alright.

I've driven on public roads, it's not so bad.

Only highway is stressful at times

Highway driving is less chaotic and simpler than city driving... you have 4 large lanes in a relatively straight road with zero variants (like pedestrians, bikers, roundabouts, stop signs etc)

Where do you live?

All of those things are simple snd you have more time to react to them

And my highways are like 80mph with 6 lanes it's kind of stressful but not a problem really

Manual - it can look overwhelming at first but its not that hard, get your license in manual as opposed to automatic since you just might need to drive a stick shift sometime (whether if its a rental, or something urgent arises and you have to drive someones car who happens to be stick shift)

Automatic - very easy to learn but Id just learn manual, you can just drive an automatic after learning manual (what I did)

driving is pretty simple especially if you live in a suburban area where you just take endless highways with multiple lanes... urban driving can be slightly stressful at first due to the overall chaotic nature of traffic on top of other pesky variabels like pedestrians, bikers, roundabouts, stop signs etc..

but you learn it, think of it like this... even retarded subhumans drive ubers, busses, taxis... why could you not learn how to drive either?

germany currently

if highways are too stressful you could just go at the right lane w your own pace assuming there arent trucks passing

the only "stressful" part about highways is merging onto one, especially with a very weak car who takes ages to accelerate

Its pretty easy

 

[Bipolar Vamp6ix]

Its dog shit easy if youre driving an automatic, for a manual you'll look cooler but it takes a lil bit more time to adjust to the gears and shifting

It depends on the location.
Muricans have it easiest, wide roads, wide coutry, everything wide even in big cities.

nah i do it drunk every night

Manual is quite hard when you're autistic. I'm def still struggling after 8 months

Automatic is easy though. Most important thing is focus on the road in a an automatic. Legit feels like a racing/GTA game in an automatic with just two buttons on a controller

 

[ElTruecel]

Automatic is easy but the issue is the drivers test will be very hyper specific about some stupid shit depending on your state.
