Hello - I'm hoping for some practical suggestions on how I can improve my driving. I think that the problem is I do not have good spacial awareness - I really can't tell how big the car is or how much space to leave for it. My husband thinks the problem is that I am indecisive and therefore dangerous. I have very little driving experience, I passed my test over 10 years ago but have only just started driving on the roads. But I am nervous to practice because I simply can't tell how close I am to the kerb, oncoming traffic, a cyclist etc, which has caused some near misses. (Mainly due to the other drivers managing to avoid me.) I have had lessons, I can read the road, I am observant (though obviously I need practice in all these areas) but the thing that really worries me is that I seriously misjudge how much space I am taking up and where I am on the road. It also means I can't park. I have an automatic car with power steering. Has anyone any suggestions on where I should practice? what specifically I need to practice? whether this is likely to be connected with anything else (e.g. do people who think they have problems with spacial awareness also tend towards indecision?!). Any advice welcome
