Amaxophobia: how I overcame my fear of driving after 19 years

I've had my driving licence for 19 years now and I don't dare drive on the motorway any more. I took several hours of lessons at a driving school, but to no avail. Once I was alone in my car, without the dual driving system, I wasn't very reassured...

During your coaching session, after about 5 minutes of driving, you understood where my problem was coming from. Nobody had taught me how to hold my steering wheel properly, how to handle it properly on bends and roundabouts, or how to put my left foot where it should be. What's more, I knew that eye contact was really important, but I didn't really know where to put it...

On the evening of the coaching day, my husband wanted to see the progress... He couldn't believe it... Thanks to your coaching, I felt much more in control of my vehicle, my eyes went from the mirrors to far ahead, my hands on the steering wheel moved just right, and... he felt safe next to me, which had never happened before...

On the motorway, I was a bit apprehensive about getting in, but once I was on it, I felt at home, the road went by and I wasn't scared any more, because I felt in control...

Thank you, you've just put an end to 19 years of quarrelling... Because subconsciously, I felt like a danger and didn't want to take the risk of driving fast... and my husband frankly didn't understand why I didn't want to. Now, seeing the difference, he thinks I'm right not to have taken the risk before...

Here's a summary of my experience, which I hope will be useful to others...

I wish you all the best,

And thanks again,
