I'm 43 and I still can't drive, seems like I never will

I'm 43 and I still can't drive, seems like I never will. People call me lazy for being 43 and not driving.I received over 30 hours of driving lessons in 2003 , on an automatic car, and I sucked so much the driving teachers had to rotate with each other for each session, as I "stressed them out" (they may have feared for their life too, now that I think about it) , so I stopped. The faces the instructors made were not only discouraging, but desperate. And I felt worse every day, because I never progressed in classes, I made the same mistakes.

I don't see the point in trying again. I feel like I would be a real danger on the road, so it's better for anyone if I just don't. My boyfriend and my employees are driving me around or i am using an uber. I think it’s for the better I don’t wanna be a danger for others.

@RunawayKaz I have so many fears when it comes to operating a car and being on the road.

@LaLa81 Same. Plus i have social anxiety so the thought of communicating with other drivers via eye contact and gestures is horrifying to me.
