First Driving Lesson-Automatic Car

In this driving lesson, I go over the first things that you should do when you are learning how to drive. I talk about starting the engine, putting the car into drive, and starting/stopping smoothly. The truth of the matter is that driving safely and smoothly is an art form, and for your first lesson, you should be getting the hang of the basics. You should practice turning, starting, and stopping. With enough practice, you will perfect these moves!

Driving is easy, never be scared to drive, just be careful and drive with manners and respect even if others dont. Respect your vehicle and take care of it and it will last you a long time.

I’m 19 and I’ve always been scared of driving. I’ve started practicing using the brake petal just a little and being able to make small turns in an empty school parking lot when no one’s around since I worry about people watching me. Driving is something I’ve never wanted to do because I’ve always been scared of it but I’ve realized it’s something that we all have to do when the time comes because without having the ability to drive, you will not be able to have independence or have any freedom in this life or even make anything of yourself. So, to anyone who is in my shoes right now the best thing to do is not stress, ask questions, and just practice one step at a time!

This comment is for all anxious or nervous people. I watched this video 1 week before my driver test, I was super scared like a lot of the comments I’ve seen here, even though I drove a bit before that to practice, I felt like I was gonna cause an accident considering how high my heart would beat and tremble. I came to tell that after 3-4 years of watching these videos, I finally drive perfectly with no worries at all and I’ll share what helped me.

My number 1 tip (and for those who can’t “center” their cars) is to look ahead of the road. Look ahead on the floor of the lane you’re into and it’ll help your eyes and mind how to center the car, another thing, the pedal where you accelerate is at the center of the car, so technically that can be also a factor of how to center the car.

2. If you’re scared hit the bumber cuz you don’t know how far or close you are, I’d “study” beforehand the front of the car to see how long it is (if it makes sense) so that i know approximately how long is the front

3. Start with little traffic roads, then heavy ones

4. Invite someone you trust that can help calm your anxiety or being nervous

5. Do maintain a lot of space infront of you, don’t be too close of the front car (for those who are scared to have an accident)

6. A lot of drivers are very aware and sometimes it helps me calm that thought that they would also make sure there’ll be no accidents for them nor you

7. Considering my bad anxiety, i look 3-4 times before changing lanes all mirrors. And if it’s night, do also slow down when there’s green lights and check all the lanes around you to see if there’s any cars (sometimes people don’t stop at red light at nightime so please be very aware at the stop lights at night)

8. Please PLEASE don’t text while driving, and if you are at stoplight, you can use your phone but please be aware of your surroundings too (and be aware while driving too) cause you never know if someone wants to harm you or a car is about to hit or block you. Also, please use yellow signals go warn the car behind you if you’re going left or right

I literally came to this video cause I feel It’ll be nice to update to the people who were same position as me and to tell that it is possible for y’all to drive. I do still sometimes have anxiety while driving, so I put music. And so far, I had no accidents at all and I’ve driven 2 cars. I hope this comment helps to those people like me cause I feel for y’all and I believe y’all can do it ✨

As soon as he said "hey everybody" i knew he will be a good teacher

[rory]

First video I saw from him was months ago, and people complained about him being loud. This loud dude is helpful, man. Idc if he screamed every time he talked. He’s a good teacher.

[annoyingnessbeginswithme]

He really does give all of the absolute basics and doesn't assume anything, and he is easy to understand, clear, and polite
Great tutorial honestly!

[thebeastcruz]

I have anxiety and I didnt want to drive because of that but today by watching these videos it wasnt as hard as I thought it would be. Just have a person that has experience and is calm next to you.

[lea-anon]

He's so calm and encouraging, I actually feel like my driving anxiety is decreasing. Thank you!

[ritag]

I'm 28 years old and I'm tired of having to depend on others to drive me around I don't wanna be like this forever! Driving gives you freedom. I felt ashamed not knowing and being the age iam ! But I know I'm not alone and this year I will start pushing myself to learn and get behind the wheel! I've been practicing and driving a bit but I stop . I'm trying to get back into it !

[AVBarnes]

I’m 20 and I’m finally working on my license. I’ve had such terrible driving anxiety and it’s kept me from trying. But watching this video is calming me because of how calming he is

Update: took my knowledge test today and passed! Next step is the driving ((:

[nathanielneal]

I love how basic this is, it’s not like he is assuming you know what the shift lever is and how it works he shows you and explains every little thing.

[JannatC]

He’s more helpful than my driving instructor 😑

[lindaxoana]

I failed twice because of my high anxiety. I quickly change my mind and decided to hire and paid a professional private and license Dmv agent that help me bypass the text drive and got me a provisional driver license. I'm good with that because it has no limitation just like any other license. If you failed and haven’t gotten your license yet, it’s okay. No rush takes your time and if you fail you can always try again. Trust I was down in the dumps, and I had a stressful year losing my dad, working, and taking care of my grandma. You guys got this!!!

[oluwadamilareezekiel]

Boss, you are doing great.
After few days of repeated watching this, I took hold of an automatic car and i drove with ease. It was like a magic... smile...

Thank you greatly Boss.

[husohomeful]

Much better than my driving instructor, who basically just yelled at me at every mistake I made.

*21 years old and here I am learning. My mother never let me get my permits etc. But I have driven a car before.. can’t wait to get my life together.*

[seanfenelon]

I'm literally writing down so many notes from him! His teaching style is something I wish my previous instructors had; calm, understanding, informative.

[shielabingham]
