What causes Fear of Driving?
Sometimes the fear of driving happens after a bad experience such as a car accident or near miss. It can also happen just from having generalized anxiety as this can erode your confidence in many ways. Some common causes of fear of driving include:
Anxiety Problems: General anxiety can make it hard to focus, concentrate and be decisive and these are important for good driving.
Lack of Confidence: Losing confidence and feeling self-doubt makes it harder to face driving or to drive well
Bad Experiences (Eg a car accident). This can cause a specific fear of being in an accident.
Lack of Experience: New drivers or avoidant drivers lack experience that builds confidence and skill
Claustrophobic responses: Feeling trapped in the vehicle or when in busy traffic can cause significant anxiety
Panic Disorder: Fear of a panic attack while driving can cause avoidance.
Specific Fears & Phobias: Fear of small spaces, particular roads, junctions, bridges etc.
Passenger Anxiety: Fear of not being in control as a passenger in a vehicle
How do I Overcome Fear of Driving on the Highway/Motorway?
The key to overcoming any fear or phobia is to face it. You can use a process of gradual desensitization. Preparing well and reducing anxiety as much as possible is the first step. Once you have gained some confidence driving in other situations you can move on to highways or motorways. Planning where you will join the highway and then taking an exit off it soon after will allow you to have a short experience facing your fear. This can be very helpful.
If possible you could get someone else to drive you onto and off the motorway while you are a passenger, doing this first before driving it yourself gives you a preview of the experience. Make sure to drive the same route when you are ready to try. This may allow you to completely overcome your fear, or it may take a few practice runs.
How Do I Overcome Fear of Driving Alone?
This is a common issue when you have just passed your driving test and drive alone for the first few times. This can for some people, trigger an anxiety reaction. Avoiding driving will only worsen and strengthen the fear reaction.
To overcome this, try taking short easy drives and you will gradually find that the problem resolves. Getting comfortable with and completely familiar with your vehicle will also help you. Gradually as your confidence builds you will find that you drive calmly and confidently alone. You trust your judgement to make the right decisions, to focus, concentrate and drive really well.
Why do I have Driving Anxiety all of a Sudden?
Did you have a bad experience or a break from driving? Are you suddenly facing driving in challenging situations such as noisy passengers or unfamiliar or busy roads?
