Whats the hardest thing about learning to drive?

Question

I will be starting driving lessons soon so i would like to know what the hardest thing about learning to drive is and roughly how long it will take me to learn at a rate of 2 lessons a week. Thanks

Answer 1

For me, learning to start on an incline (using standard transmission) was the hardest. If you always drive a car with automatic transmission, then you don't have to deal with that. 2nd hardest was parallel parking but people learn to compensate for bad parking skills.

Other than those two items, it's mostly learning to judge closing distances, getting a sense of the car's exterior dimensions, and getting a feel for how car reacts to your direction.

Some people have a difficult time judging space and time, so it's hard to say how long it will take you. I would expect that after four weeks you would start to feel comfortable, though.

Answer 2

No offense, but what the h**l! How does driving lessons have anything to do with swimming and diving?

Answer 3

2 lessons a week isn't very much. You definetly won't ever be a top notch diver at that pace. The hardest part is having an open mind when diving, and not being afraid to mess up. Also, you need to be good at visualizing a dive, as well as being able to feel where you are in relation to everything while diving.
