Driving a car (especially a manual) means coordination, multitasking and greater awareness of what happens with your car and with the other road users.
At first, you might feel a bit overwhelmed by the fact that you need to monitor lots of things at once, like the speed, road signs, gear changes and other cars but you should get over it in a few months. If that doesn’t occur, maybe you are not made for driving and you should take the bicycle or urban transport, rather than struggling at the wheel, endanger you and others.

Moving along, Toyota has recently released a short video on driving awareness and the small distractions new drivers go through, totally minimizing their driving abilities. Things like opening a bottle of water, changing the radio station or getting involved in a conversation can affect the driving performances of some beginner drivers.

We might be rude by saying this and we apologize in advance for it, but these teen drivers must be the worst drivers ever. How can you totally screw-up on a closed course, with no traffic and automatic transmission just by having to open a bottle and change the radio station? Check the video bellow and see what we’re talking about.
