I was kinda nervous, but you don't start out by driving 60. Driving fast on the highway is actually easier than driving in rush hour traffic with other cars all around you.

You have to learn to concentrate on the traffic while your also manipulating the car's controls, turn signals, etc. When you take drivers ed, you probably won't be in the same kind of car your parents have, so learn the controls before you start out. On one of my first trips, it started to rain and I couldn't find the windshield wipers. The instructor told me where they were but I couldn't understand him. I pulled over to the side of the street and stopped, which he said was a good move under the circumstances.
