Dribing lessons why am I not progressing

[Gemm555]

I've done around 70 hrs worth of lessons 1.5 hrs a week I have no one around me who can take me out drubing between lessons! My concentration is bad after driving for 30 minutes I find Mt concentration dips and i keep making stupid mistakes like not dropping my gears at roundabouts and junctions and I don't even notice signs I feel like there's nothing else my instructor can teach me the mistakes I'm making are Purley my own doing! Hoe can I over come this and focus more, my test is in about 5 weeks and I just get told I'm a dangerous driver off instructor...my anxiety is starting to make me feel sick at the thought of another disappointing lesson...any advice?

To be honest, it sounds like driving isn’t for you if you lose concentration so quickly. That will make you a very dangerous driver indeed.

I was thinking what on earth is dribing
assume you mean driving!

if it helps I did 88 lessons. I was a total disaster. However eventually got my act together and passed first time. That was 30 years ago.

in your case I think I’d try a more sympathetic instructor if that’s possible.

Change your instructor to someone who teaches auto

That’s hardly going to help with the OP not noticing signs.

Really?

If she's anxious and stressed about how she drives, taking some cognitive load off can only help, right?

If she's still having problems after trying automatic then OP can probably be satisfied that driving is not for her.

Change to an automatic.

I found my driving lessons exhausting but driving in real life was less stressful. You can build up stamina as you like, by starting with only short drives and getting longer. So you being tired after half an hour in your lesson isn’t necessarily a deal breaker. I wonder if you do need a different instructor though. Or shorter lessons.
