I have a fear of causing a wreck and killing someone and going to jail. That is my driving fear. Is it possible you can drive early in the morning before there is a lot of traffic? I have a fear of driving after noon time. Two weeks ago I guilt tripped my Dad into taking me to an afternoon appointment I could not miss. This appointment is only for the afternoon. I am also afraid to drive to new places. Last year I moved and I had to start learning my way around another town. One thing that helped me do that is the town I moved from would require an additional 14 minutes of driving. So I would rather drive to the new town. I'm slowly but surely learning my way around the new town. My doctor goes to both my old town & new town. I saw him in my new town and I was nervous going to a different part of the town I had never been in. I refuse to let anxiety keep me from driving. I do all my errands and doctor appointments in the morning. There is one appointment I have annually and they only do it in the afternoon.
