Does the fear of hitting and/or killing something/someone go away?

Honestly i never had that fear. Most likely that is your instincts telling you youre way in over your heae and could kill someone.

 

When I'm parked I get nervous until I have trucks parked on both sides

 

Stress and pressure, it should go away. It sounds more like jitters, new teenage drivers are nervous too. If you never get comfortable then look for something else, but you cant get lazy about it. I run local to construction sites, the university jobs are the worst. #### collage kids come out of nowhere, and dont look.

 

I would watch out for the charging bulls coming out of a China shop. Do not stay in that area, because you will be hit with a preventable.

Best to maybe work out of the Denver area, that way, your only concern will be your brakes smoking more than I do with my cigars.

 

Well... Going to add my two cents in for what it's worth.

If the fear keeps you from focusing on everything else we have to focus on, then you're better off not behind the wheel.

Fear isn't a bad thing, but too much of anything...well, you should know that tale.

The day you can climb into the driver's seat and not worry or even have the tiniest fear of hitting someone or thing should be the day you turn in your keys.

My fears and worries keep me cautious, but they don't cripple me.

 

You may have the skill on crowded streets, tight roads, open highways....but you need 1 thing, common sense and you will be fine

 

Hint: If you can't see what went wrong, you should hand in your keys now.

Hint 2: it has nothing to do with the bird perched on the hood.

Hint 3: if you see a bird perched on the hood, hand in your keys and say no to drugs.

 

If you are cut out for Driving that fear will never go away. After a few yrs you will likely relax and have a close call, then after you build your skill set the fear will turn into stress, you will become a highly sought after driver for several years, then diabetes, stroke...

 

What a mudder fugger.
