No need... With patience... First of all... Introduction


Make sure that you are seated with the driver anywhere you are going... be it public buses or cabs. Monitor their movements and the way they change the gear, use pedals and the steering..

You can as well do it.

That was all I did and was able to drive without a driving school.... Using Manual transition fa

If you don't have access to a car to keep practicing it will suck you can try learning with automatic on assign open field once you can confidently control a car then try the manual

If Shola the most timid girl I've ever known can learn to drive a manual geared car, anyone can learn.


All it takes is confidence.

I am left handed and I drive both manual and automatic.

What if you were in UK where they use right hand drive cars?

Find an estate with minimal traffic, learn and make all the mistakes you want to make within it, when you're sure of yourself, drive out and go gain more confidence.

Make sure you have a good drive by your side to put you through.

If you can post on Nairaland you should be able to learn driving with ease.



Fools drive, illiterates drive, ignorants people too drive, so why can't you?

"You can bring the horse to the water but you can't make him drink it". OP you have blocked your mind from learning to drive .... until you can entertain positive thinking nothing would change. Only you can help you. It's like someone trying to make you eat dog meat.... you would have a mental block and it wouldn't happen...no matter which expert prepared it and who explain how good it is for you.Free your mind first.

You have to start working on your mentality if you must sail through. Saying you are not sure if u will ever learn how to drive a car means you have already decided ur fate. Be euthusauatic about driving and u will do it. Believe in yourself.

Be confident in yourself that you can do it, then, endure until you learn it very well.
