To have arrived on this phobic drivers site for the first time
it must have been for one of three reasons.

You have a road anxiety problem and you are frantically trying to convince yourself that you are not going mad, which you aren’t, and trying to find answers to overcome fear of driving a car.

You are directly affected by road anxiety in someone else who is trying to overcome a fear of driving a car and you want to help them.

You have stumbled upon this site by accident whilst looking for something else and now you are curious.

If you come under the third category then we especially welcome you, and encourage you to read as much as you can, because the more people who are aware of the road fear that affects phobic drivers who are trying to overcome a fear of driving a car, more people will become educated.


Never heard of Driving Phobia?

Trying to overcome fear of driving a car is no joke, as those who suffer from driving phobia often find themselves in a debilitating downward spiral of diminishing ability to cope with the task of driving a car on a road. This affects so many other areas of life, making it all the more miserable to live with.


Raising Awareness of Driving Phobia and Road Fear

Driving phobia sufferers will often not realise their road anxiety symptoms are shared by hundreds of thousands of other phobic drivers all over the world. It is, in fact, one of the world’s best kept secrets.

With greater public awareness of driving phobia and road anxiety there will become greater tolerance and understanding. That can mean those who are battling with their driving phobia or anxiety issues need not feel so victimised by the rest of the motoring population.

This website also gives you an insight into the causes of driving phobia and road anxiety, and may prevent others from becoming affected.

Don’t ever think that drivers with road anxiety are mad or they are freaks, because they are not. They are normal, rational, intelligent and very worthwhile people, and driving phobia, road anxiety or road fear isn’t the way they chose to be.

The way driving phobia chooses its victims is as indiscriminate as contracting cancer, suffering a stroke or a heart attack. It can happen to anyone at any time.
