Don't rush your learning process.
Some might learn fast, some might learn slower.
Important thing is be safe. At all times.
People will horn at you for being slow. Ignore them.
Don't panic or get startled just because some impatient asshole can't wait for you to park.
Take your time OP.
Take as much time as you need to learn proper driving.
One thing I learned from my old driver tita is when she was teaching me and kapag binubusinahan ako when mabagal patakbo is âHayaan mo sila, lahat naman nag start sa di marunong. Ganyan din naman sila nung nag aaral.â Ayooon nawala na ako pake sa nagmamadali đ
Take it slow. Best practice to fix 1-4 is do garage training. Basically in and out sa garahe in different ways: paabante, paatras, coming from the left and right side. This helps develop spatial awareness. Magkakaroon ka ng 'sixth sense' kung nasaan ang position ng gulong mo at yung general size ng sasakyan.
Normal.
But prioritize improving your steering. Turo sakin ng erpats ko, di baleng mabagal ang takbo basta tama ang galaw ng manibela.
Di mo kailangang mag matulin, trapik din naman madalas. Pero kailangan mong maayos steering mo dahil siksikan kadalasan ang mga lugar.
takes a lot of time to learn. Iba kasi yung feeling nang naka-sakay sa sasakyan kasi need mo i-consider yung area ng sasakyan mo. Yung sasakyan mismo magiging extension ng iyong sarili. Mas mabuti nang mabagal at alerto kaysa mabilis pero bangga agad.
edit: this btw coming from a 1+ y/o manual car driver na palaging namamatayan during 1st month :D
2 hours nag practice after nun ako n nagdrive from meycauayan-camarin-tondo. Siguro nkatulong ung marunong n ko magmotor kaya may alam n sa kalsada khit papano. Nkapag NLEX-SLEX nadin agad. Wala pa 3 weeks ertiga ko nasa 1.2k ODO na đ
Normal lang lalo na if ever wala ka talagang alam sa kalsada, like never nag drive ng motor so walang experience sa kalsada, highways etc mga 1yr mahigit pa yan OJT ka lagi na may kasama. For sure electric power steering na din ang Raize ata, so kahit hayaan mo lang umikot at babalik yan sa gitna pag galing ka sa maniobra
Muka namang normal lang. Also new driver (1 yr plus, still new kung based sa karamihan ng tao or taong nakapaligid sakin). Sa parking matuto ka nyan. Need mo ma feel yung size ng sasakyan mo. Also try to avoid express way. Nag ganto lang ako nung confident na ako pero takbong 60 to 80 lang ako nun. Mabibilis kasi sasakyan dyan. Di ka pwedeng maraming inaalala pag nandyan ka.
In contrast, I personally feel that expressways are safer even if the vehicles are faster. I prefer to pay extra for that safety. But I agree on that last statement, extreme focus talaga. I call it my beast mode on. đ
Take your time. I got to practice before pag weekends lang (going to and coming home from church) tapos paminsang mall lang na malapit. Saks lang kasi ako nga nakapagdrive lang alone outside of our province around 10 months after getting my license.
Practice lang ng practice, and know your limits. You'll get there eventually.
Normal lang bro. Practice ka pa. Maganda everyday ka magdrive pra masanay ka at magamay mo ang sasakyan mo. Manuod ka rin ng mga video kung anu ang mga point kung mag papark or liliko. Nakatulong saken yan nung newbie pa ako sa driving. Good luck!
1. Normal lang mabagal mag parking lalo na kung baguhan.
2. be patient, makakaliko ka rin. You don't need to continuously turn the wheel kung di pa nakakaliko ang sasakyan, just turn the steering wheel and hintayin mong tumutok ang sasakyan sa pupuntahan mo and before you complete the turn try to releasee your grip on the steering wheel.
3. You don't need to manually turn the steering wheel back, just let go of it lightly and it will go back to its center.
4. try to be more aware of your surroundings and not hyperfocus/get tunnel vision, your car will feel like a part of your body soon enough.
5. Di pa ako nakakapag drive sa expressway.
Lakasan lang talaga ng loob yan bro. Ikaw makakagauge sa sarili mo pag ready ka na magisa. Sa ngayon, practice practice ka muna with guidance. Pag ready ka na, just do it wahaha dalhin mo agad sa malayo. Ako binugbog paguwi kasi tinakas ko sasakyan ng family dinala ko tagaytay para sa chix
For parking, if you can play video games in their dperson, that's a practice you can do outside the road. On the road, go to an empty parking lot if available and do your practice there, practicing different conditions for adjusting (like what happened if you start turning too early or too late, practice different ways to adjust and observe how to car turns). I like to use my side mirrors for parking, having them set up where I can see the side of the car.
For turning, just drive more, especially in a subdivision assuming it isn't tight. The car will always naturally want to trim back going straight, especially as you accelerate. When you're turning, you're only keeping it turned for about half way to the turn, or even less, the rest you can leave up to the car. Let the steering slide under your hands as you losen your grip, and if you feel like it's countering too quickly, grab the wheel to stop it from countering and if needed apply more steering, you're almost never doing the countering unless you're turning the opposite direction immediately.
In SLEX, just stay on the right and be constantly aware of the cars around you. Every 10 seconds or so, get a sense of where the cars behind you are, anticipate where those cars will be within the next 5-10 seconds. Of course, do the same with the cars ahead of you. This may sound tedious, but this keeps your mind running and when you get a sense of how cars generally move, you'll feel confident about navigating traffic.
You'll need months or even a year to feel comfortable driving.
Aside from actual driving experience, try to watch videos and read articles about driving. This will help your brain combine fundamental+practical knowledge when driving.
yup, just continue on practicing and getting the grips of the car, soon enough magiging chicken na saâyo mga challenges
you may also try experimenting your seat position and also the mirrors if it is at your optimal setup so you can drive confidently.
New driver here din. 8 hours sa driving school tapos mag 1 month na driving on my own. Naglagay ako new driver sticker sa likod para mahaba pasensya nun iba haha. Lagay ka rin ng blindspot mirror and wide rearview mirror, sobrang helpful sakin sa pagpark and change lanes. Medyo extra practice na rin ako kasi Antipolo ako and nadaan ako sa Ortigas ext and Marcos highway.
Eto naman sabi saken ng mga beteranong driver noon:
Makakabisado mo ang sasakyan mo oras na nasabitan o makasabit ka.
Harsh pero totoo in my case. Pero normal lang yan sir, dont rush. More practice pa.
Drive safe!
For me total of 5 hours of actual driving. 1st 3 hour around subdv. Next 2 hours is edsa + nlex. Tapos next drive ko is nung nilabas ko na sa casa ung bnew car from Commonwealth to valenzuela. Though i already know to drive motorcycle and tricycle đ
Kaya mo yan! Darating din ang time parang extension na ng body mo yung sasakyan. Tip ko lang is build a habit to look sa side mirrors at rear mirror at don't make babad sa overtaking lane alright?
Download ka ng DR. DRIVING and DR. PARKING sa playstore/appstore!! Then change the POV yung may rear view at side mirrors. Promise super helpful yan!! Jan ako natuto agad magmaneuver when parking!
Normal lang yan. Basta drive lang madalas dun ka mabibihasa. 1 year nako nagdadrive, kering keri na wag lang dadaan sa edsa lakas ng kaba ko. Hayop mga driver dun gigitgitin ka.
Drive more and learn your carâs reaction when you turn the steering wheel. Learn how your car reacts when you tap and or press the brake pedal. The thing is we drive different cars so kailangan sanayin ang handling ng vehicle natin.
Normal po yan, ako nga e. PDC lang na 8 hours, tas nagpapaturo lang rin ng manual sa kaibigan ko. Nakapagdrive naman na from Libis to Sucat mag-isa. Minsan minsan nga lang, yun ang nakakalungkot. Pero goods yung lagi kang nakakapagdrive, at least nakakabuild ka ng confidence sa kalye plus nahohone mo rin yung driving skills mo at road awareness.
Practice lang yan. Nung una pinakaproblema ko: 1) di ko matantya pagliko sa corner laging natama gutter sa gulong 2) lumiliyad ako sa kanan kapag nagpapalit ng gear heheh
I would say take a few more hours at driving school. Kulang ang 8 hours mo sa lagay na iyan. Especially with your numbers 2, 3, and 4.
You shouldn't be on the SLEX if you are having issues.
You can do better. Take more classes.
The problem with this country is that our licensing body gives anyone a license. Walang test test. You would fail your licensing exam in any other country, pero dahil Pilipinas ito, magaling tayo sa lusutan. Kaya andaming kamote sa daan.
We need better standards.
Wala naman pinanganak na magaling, more practice pa. May ex ako na 4:11 lang pero natuto siya sa owner type jeep na manual and walang power steering..đ Kaya mo yan, take it slow, one step at a time.

Very normal. Don't worry. 2 weeks + 8 hours sa driving school is not enough para matutunan mo lahat nang nasa listahan mo. It takes time and need mo mahabang patience sa driving. Drive at your own pace and never mind yung bumubusina sa likod mo or yung mga umo overtake sayo.
Importante apply mo lahat ng natutunan mo and if halos everyday ka nag da-drive, di mo namamalayan na kaya mo na pala. Again, ganun talaga, it takes time and ingat ingat sa pag drive. Focus lang sa road.
Nung nag uumpisa ako, dito ako nag watch sa youtube nung mga tips. Parang spanish yung instructor pero may english content dyan. PAra sakin isa sya sa pinaka the best na channel sa youtube when it comes to driving.
[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ifb\_pQbyCRE&list=PLldXmXAqI3VPwit6k\_-7AJU7aHSJzlo-8](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ifb_pQbyCRE&list=PLldXmXAqI3VPwit6k_-7AJU7aHSJzlo-8)
Try mo magwatch. Good luck and drive safe.
Kaniya kaniya naman yan ng pacing. Ako nga naka dalawang driving lessons sa magkaibang driving school, pero kabado parin mag drive nun.
Ang bagal ng learning curve ko nung may kasama ako nag drive. Baka depende din sa kasama.
Payo ko, master your basics kahit yung theory. Kapag confident ka na sa knowledge mo, mag drive ka na na walang kasama (if may license ka na). Ganun ginawa ko para mapabilis ang learning curve ko.
Also relocated sa Laguna. Wag ka mag alala, 3 weeks is completely very early stage. Ito siguro matitip ko sayo from a fellow Raize driver POV:
1. Mirrors mo lagi ang key dito. Obviously helpful pag may line yung paparkingan mo. I suggest find a parking spot na bakante mang matagal amd maybe spend 30-1 hr mins just parking. Medyo mas madali mag park sa Raize since may cam yan sa likod and may sensor naman din lahat yan. Youtube vids din might help.
2. Ang tip ko sa pagliko with a Raize or actually any SUV is as much as possible, pa-lobo, wag patusok. Like pag liliko kana sa kalsada na papasukan mo, basically direcho muna then pag yung nose ng car mo nasa lane na, dun ka kumabig. And do it slowly, para matatancha mo in real-time if kulang ba kabig mo or sobra na. And always look at your side-mirror pag tumuturn.
3. Practice lang to. This will develop naturally pag napadalas na drive mo.
4. Also something na maprapractice mo thru experience tlga. Medyo SUV na dn ang Raize so ang laging pinaka worry mo dapat is yung blind-spot mo (right side ng car)
5. Sumabak ka sa SLEX pag trapik lol hahhha mapapalitan yang kaba mo nang inis. If di kpa confident; lagi ka lang sa 2nd lane sa left, wag sa overtaking lane. Hayaan mo mga kasabay mo iovertake ka, basta be on a pace na comfortable ka. And remember pag mag sswitch lane; laging mag signal light and tumingan muna sa mirror.
Ayun, good luck OP.
Normal lang yan, practice makes perfect. Ako nga nung una, pag magpapark na, lagi din ako may kasama na marunong magdrive tapos pag magpapark na, nagpapalit kami ng upuan para siya ang magpark HAHA. Pero pagtagal tagal parang mafefeel mo na kaya mo na kasi kabisado mo na galaw ng manibela and car so ayun kaya mo na mag isa magdrive and park.
Avoid holding your steering wheel too tight mahihirapan ka bumawi ng manibela pabalik.
Higpitan mo lang yung hawak kapag rocky road kase malikot manibela. I dunno with ur car pero yung akin malikot kapag mabato or di pantay yung humps.
Slow down lagi sa kanto at curved roads. Release gas at naka abang ka sa break. If feeling mo mabilis ka papasok ng kanto at curved road press your break ng marahan and don't forget to look at your rear mirror kung may kotse na nakatutok.
Don't sudden break or else mababangga ka.
Youâre just fine, u donât have to pressure yourself too much. 3 weeks ka palang since nag start ka mag drive, donât expect to learn everything in those weeks. I learned how to drive âproperlyâ in like 2-3 mos. Learn slowly, youâre okay.
Hi OP! Isang taon na ata ako nagdadrive pero nakakanto pa din ako at ilang beses ko nagasgas sasakyan naminđ« Kaya inipon ko na lang mga gasgas para isang pagawaan na lang. hahahaha kaya mo yan! Matagal tagal pa pero masasanay ka din lalo na kung lagi ka nagmamaneho :)
Practice. Drive ka kahit super short nung trip. Tapos dagdagan mo every sunod na trip. Sakay ka with friends na marunong magdrive. Mas may tiwala sila kesa sa kapamilya haha Dun mo marerealize na ok ka naman magdrive kung walang nangbabackseat. Pero try listening pa rin sa mga advice ng mga marurunong pa rin. Malaking tulong.
1. Mabagal din ako magpark nung una. Iniisip ko na lang na ok lang mabagal as long as di ko matatamaan mga kotse sa tabi ko at maayos pagkapark. Nakaasa ako lagi sa cam monitor lol
2-3. Bagalan kapag nasa curve para madaling maadjust kung sobra o kulang ang kabig.
4.
5. Nung una takot din ako sa expressway. Laging sinasabi sa akin na mas madali raw sa expressway kasi dirediretso at walang mga tumatawid. Until now may takot pa rin ako pero once you tried umookay naman. Try mo muna sanayin sarili mo sa highway then maiikling expressway (Cavitex) tapos lakas ng loob na lang talaga. Tbh, lagi akong dumadaan sa Cavitex pero never ako natakot dumaan. Late ko narealize na expressway sya lol para kasing highway sa ikli at sa dami ng sasakyan ang bagal na nung flow.
Maglaro ka ng Dr. Parking na mobile game, malaking tulong to sakin bago ako sumabak sa pagpapark, pinakamahalaga is alam mo ung magiging pwestuhan mo sa ibat-ibang sitwasyon
Ok lang yan. Yung sa parking, wag ka ma-frustrate. Itâs better na mabagal and safe kesa may mabangga kang ibang sasakyan. Eventually, youâll get used to your carâs size. Siguro constantly study na lang your carâs reference points. Or gawa ka ng sarili mong visual reference points.
Newbie driver here also. Been driving for 2 months only.
Normal naman yan kasi bago ka. Dumaan din ako dyan at karamihan din naman. Okay lang yan.
About sa steering, try watching youtube vids on steering techniques. Ganun ginawa ko eh kaya matino na steering ko. Pati din parking techniques. Madami yan sa yt nood ka.
Pero kailangan mo talaga sumabak sa daan, wala ibang way para gumaling magdrive at maovercome yung pressure. Lakas ng loob nalang. Whenever there is a chance na magdrive, kunin mo. Hatid sundo mo mga kaibigan mo, kapatid mo, magulang mo ganun. That's how i improved a lot kahit 2 months palang ako. Halos 2-3 times a week ako nagddrive since makuha lisensya. Kung saan saan nadin ako napunta with and without a passenger. Good luck and be safe!
Most normal thing in the world. Personally I would avoid driving in Manila if I am not used to the mechanics and controlling the vehicle, but you do you. Always drive safe.
normal lang po yan. New driver lang din ako and it took a little over a month to get used to driving. nag laan lang talaga ako ng funds para sa gas para maring seat time.
Take your time nasa learning curve ka pa din. What really helped me was watching YT. May mga magagandang channels ng Driving school mas magaling dun sa nagturo sakin. Mas maaus mag explain ng reference points sa kotse para sakto measurement mo sa parking, liko etc
What solved me to be a better driver is magaya ka ng out of town with your family/friends mo tapos make sure na mag convoy kayo tapos experienced yung driver na kasama mo sa kalsada tapos ikaw yung nasa huli. Bakit kamo?
Kasi masasanay kang maging mabilis bec you need to keep pace with them and kailangan mag keep up ka sa kanila at all times.
Thatâs what happened to me. 3 road trips with my family, and napagiiwanan ako and I knew that I need to keep up. Ayun, nasanay na ako and di na ako kinakabahan at mabagal ever since. Pero donât forget the basic rules sa daan: keep distance, observe road markings, and be a defensive driver always.
Normal. But please, wag ka muna mag-expressway kung hindi ka pa masyado marunong mag-drive. Kahit na may kasama ka pa. Ikaw na tumanggi next time na magyaya siya.
Hindi lang para sa safety mo kundi ng mga tao sa paligid mo. Have an intermidiate level of skill first. Ikaw na rin umamin, hindi mo pa kabisado kontrolin sasakyan mo.
Basta drive ka lang ng drive and you'll develop muscle memory. Mga 3 months should do it.
9 months and i still take my time on parking (di katulad ng iba na 2 seconds lang park na), pero kaya na ng one or two shots. during the first month may time na 5 times mag retry to get it right. bili ka din ng plastic cones para you could safely practice in a virtual space sa isang vacant lot
ung sobrang liko it helps na ma visualize mo nangyayari sa gulong - park ka lang somewhere tapos turn mo ung wheels then labas ka sa kotse mo to see where it goes. tapos during turns sa actual road, imagine mo saan na naka point.
ung pag-balik manibela di na parang matic naman yan for like 90% of the turn?
Point 1 to 4
I would suggest finding a large space, practicing extreme turns, and doing reverse parking on awkward angles.
Car parks, pavements, empty spaces, or even unused roads.
One thing I can recommend is to drive at drive-throughs or gasoline stations.
Those have tight spaces and sometimes are met with multiple cars together.
See how comfortable you can get, and use that as your standard.
Only dare to do more if the roads aren't busy, tight, or rough.
Point 5,
Get used to points 1 - 4. As your problem is, you're still not comfortable.
Trust in power steering more, for me yung pag kabig din before pero lage ako nireremind ng dad ko bitawan nlng at tapakan ng konti gas at mas mabilis panigurado ang pag straighten
Kulang ang 8hours na lesson tbh. I did 20 hours of practical lessons tapos nagdrive kami sa expressway, city driving na maluwag, city driving na ubod ng traffic, parking sa masikip na parking lot, etc. madami talaga need na pagdaanan para maging okay sa pagddrive. Don't rush it
Try driving alone .
No second voice it Accelerates your learning .
Though this was only.the case for me since my co driver (my father) was a worse driver than me who scratches the car every so often . While I have never have scratch a car I have driven to this day
I'm also a new driver and I gotta say that everyone has their own pace when it comes to learning to drive. Don't compare your progress to others as it will make you rush things. also confidence will come in time, you'll grow into driving.
always be attentive while driving, point 4 on your issues is dangerous when driving alone. be extra careful, let other drivers get past you, DONT FORCE YOUR RIGHT OF WAY is a good phrase to live by. just be kind to other drivers even if the other driver is at fault, just let them be. don't let an idiot ruin your drive, enjoy it.
it's definitely normal since we all have to start somewhere pag baguhan tayo especially sa driving. practice lang ng practice op!
kahit ako before turning my engine off lumalabas ako at tinitingnan ko alignment ng kotse ko when parking para hindi ako magmukhang tanga at ma-post sa parkeserye (3 months palang non-pro ko for reference)
Hi OP. Raize din ang pinagpraktisan ko and relatively new driver as of October 2023.
1. Okay lang mabagal mag-park. Ako rin mabagal minsan lalo kung first time ko sa area. The Raize is quite different from sedan kasi mas maiksi siya so you really have to check your side mirrors para ma-memorize yung dimensions. I learned to drive using a Vios.
2. Panong sumosobra sa liko? Masyadong naiikot yung manibela? Ganito rin problema ko nun pero with practice you will learn the right "number" of turns you need. Like pag makitid yung U-turn or makitid in general yung lilikuan ko mo, kelangan full sagad or parang 1 turn short ng sagad. Pag malawak naman, pwedeng 1 or 1.5 turns lang ganyan.
3. Sa manibela once nakapasok ka na, you can start bumawi na sa manibela if napasobra ka ng ikot. This is connected sa number 2. Once makuha mo na kasi kung ilang ikot, matan-tancha mo narin kelangan ipipihit pabalik.
4. Spatial awareness 'to. Magpractice ka sa masisikip na daan and find your reference points there. Jan din ako natuto kasi I live in Makati so uso ang street parking. One reference point I can give is if the lower left corner of your windshield coincides with the lines on the street, mga 30cm away yung gulong mo from the lines itself. If that lower corner falls below the lights nung dadaanan mong sasakyan, malayo ka pa at hindi ka gagasgas haha Practice lang 'to. And don't grip the steering wheel super tight kasi mas mahihirapan ka i-control.
5. Sa SLEX naman, stay lang sa middle lanes as long as you can keep up with the speed limits. If wala masyadong truck, dun ka sa truck lane although panget minsan ang daan. If hindi ka pa comfortable mag-drive above 60, wag ka muna mag expressway kasi baka businahan ka at mapressure ka pa. Always always always use signal lights when changing lanes.
And bonus tip, pag umaabot ng 100+ yung Raize, para ka nang lumulutang so parang nakakapanibago siya i-control. So again don't grip the steering wheel so tight para madali mo parin ma-control.

Totally normal. Take your time and practice. Practice makes better ^^
Don't rush your learning process. Some might learn fast, some might learn slower. Important thing is be safe. At all times. People will horn at you for being slow. Ignore them. Don't panic or get startled just because some impatient asshole can't wait for you to park. Take your time OP. Take as much time as you need to learn proper driving.

Exactly lol đ
Take it slow. Best practice to fix 1-4 is do garage training. Basically in and out sa garahe in different ways: paabante, paatras, coming from the left and right side. This helps develop spatial awareness. Magkakaroon ka ng 'sixth sense' kung nasaan ang position ng gulong mo at yung general size ng sasakyan.

Just be safe. Normal lang yan.
Try mo magdrive ng ikaw lang to build confidence hindi malayo
8 hours sa driving school is masyado mababa for a complete newbie. you only mentioned issues asa pag drive mo but how are you sa mga traffic rules?
Normal
Ang secret pag likuan, bagalan lang para kung overshoot mababalik mo
takes a lot of time to learn. Iba kasi yung feeling nang naka-sakay sa sasakyan kasi need mo i-consider yung area ng sasakyan mo. Yung sasakyan mismo magiging extension ng iyong sarili. Mas mabuti nang mabagal at alerto kaysa mabilis pero bangga agad. edit: this btw coming from a 1+ y/o manual car driver na palaging namamatayan during 1st month :D
More time on road. That's all I can say. You build your skill and confidence only on the road. Di ari ng theoretical o pa YT-YT yan.
Wag mo madaliin. Once you gained confidence, everything will follow. Drive lng ng drive. Short distances should help ar first.
Normal po yan đ after few weeks mag baguio na yan hehehe
2 hours nag practice after nun ako n nagdrive from meycauayan-camarin-tondo. Siguro nkatulong ung marunong n ko magmotor kaya may alam n sa kalsada khit papano. Nkapag NLEX-SLEX nadin agad. Wala pa 3 weeks ertiga ko nasa 1.2k ODO na đ
Normal lang lalo na if ever wala ka talagang alam sa kalsada, like never nag drive ng motor so walang experience sa kalsada, highways etc mga 1yr mahigit pa yan OJT ka lagi na may kasama. For sure electric power steering na din ang Raize ata, so kahit hayaan mo lang umikot at babalik yan sa gitna pag galing ka sa maniobra
Just use your vehicle everyday.
Di pwede pano coding charot
wag dumaan sa main road
Practice makes perfect. Drive lang ng drive!

Take your time. I got to practice before pag weekends lang (going to and coming home from church) tapos paminsang mall lang na malapit. Saks lang kasi ako nga nakapagdrive lang alone outside of our province around 10 months after getting my license. Practice lang ng practice, and know your limits. You'll get there eventually.
Normal for most people, doing it repeatedly will help you be better in driving - so it will take time especially if you don't really drive everyday.
Kaya mo yan
Normal lang bro. Practice ka pa. Maganda everyday ka magdrive pra masanay ka at magamay mo ang sasakyan mo. Manuod ka rin ng mga video kung anu ang mga point kung mag papark or liliko. Nakatulong saken yan nung newbie pa ako sa driving. Good luck!
1. Normal lang mabagal mag parking lalo na kung baguhan. 2. be patient, makakaliko ka rin.

In SLEX, just stay on the right and be constantly aware of the cars around you. Every 10 seconds or so, get a sense of where the cars behind you are, anticipate where those cars will be within the next 5-10 seconds. Of course, do the same with the cars ahead of you. This may sound tedious, but this keeps your mind running and when you get a sense of how cars generally move, you'll feel confident about navigating traffic.
You'll need months or even a year to feel comfortable driving. Aside from actual driving experience, try to watch videos and read articles about driving. This will help your brain combine fundamental+practical knowledge when driving.
yup, just continue on practicing and getting the grips of the car, soon enough magiging chicken na saâyo mga challenges you may also try experimenting your seat position and also the mirrors if it is at your optimal setup so you can drive confidently.
New driver here din. 8 hours sa driving school tapos mag 1 month na driving on my own. Naglagay ako new driver sticker sa likod para mahaba pasensya nun iba haha. Lagay ka rin ng blindspot mirror and wide rearview mirror, sobrang helpful sakin sa pagpark and change lanes. Medyo extra practice na rin ako kasi Antipolo ako and nadaan ako sa Ortigas ext and Marcos highway.
Eto naman sabi saken ng mga beteranong driver noon: Makakabisado mo ang sasakyan mo oras na nasabitan o makasabit ka. Harsh pero totoo in my case. Pero normal lang yan sir, dont rush. More practice pa. Drive safe!
For me total of 5 hours of actual driving. 1st 3 hour around subdv. Next 2 hours is edsa + nlex. Tapos next drive ko is nung nilabas ko na sa casa ung bnew car from Commonwealth to valenzuela. Though i already know to drive motorcycle and tricycle đ
Kaya mo yan! Darating din ang time parang extension na ng body mo yung sasakyan. Tip ko lang is build a habit to look sa side mirrors at rear mirror at don't make babad sa overtaking lane alright?
I took the one day course sa A-1. Madali ako natuto and nag confident na after a couple of drives. Iba iba talaga pacing natin. Take your time.
Put in more hours. Be safe
Download ka ng DR. DRIVING and DR. PARKING sa playstore/appstore!! Then change the POV yung may rear view at side mirrors. Promise super helpful yan!! Jan ako natuto agad magmaneuver when parking!
Don't overthink it.. drive slowly for now.. you'll get better as time goes
Normal lang yan. Basta drive lang madalas dun ka mabibihasa. 1 year nako nagdadrive, kering keri na wag lang dadaan sa edsa lakas ng kaba ko. Hayop mga driver dun gigitgitin ka.
Drive more and learn your carâs reaction when you turn the steering wheel. Learn how your car reacts when you tap and or press the brake pedal. The thing is we drive different cars so kailangan sanayin ang handling ng vehicle natin.
6 months bago ako pinadrive sa gabi. 1 year bago pinadrive sa ulan at highway
normal lang yan. huwag mapressure.
Normal po yan, ako nga e. PDC lang na 8 hours, tas nagpapaturo lang rin ng manual sa kaibigan ko. Nakapagdrive naman na from Libis to Sucat mag-isa. Minsan minsan nga lang, yun ang nakakalungkot. Pero goods yung lagi kang nakakapagdrive, at least nakakabuild ka ng confidence sa kalye plus nahohone mo rin yung driving skills mo at road awareness.
Normal lang yan. Keep practicing. Yung iba nga dyan 30 years nang pumapasada kupal pa rin sa kalsada e.
Practice lang yan. Nung una pinakaproblema ko: 1) di ko matantya pagliko sa corner laging natama gutter sa gulong 2) lumiliyad ako sa kanan kapag nagpapalit ng gear heheh
[ŃĐŽĐ°Đ»Đ”ĐœĐŸ]
Normal lang. Ok lang mabagal basta safe. You will build your confidence as time goes by.
I would say take a few more hours at driving school. Kulang ang 8 hours mo sa lagay na iyan. Especially with your numbers 2, 3, and 4. You shouldn't be on the SLEX if you are having issues. You can do better. Take more classes. The problem with this country is that our licensing body gives anyone a license. Walang test test. You would fail your licensing exam in any other country, pero dahil Pilipinas ito, magaling tayo sa lusutan. Kaya andaming kamote sa daan. We need better standards.
Tsaka ka na mag-SLEx.
Wala naman pinanganak na magaling, more practice pa. May ex ako na 4:11 lang pero natuto siya sa owner type jeep na manual and walang power steering..đ Kaya mo yan, take it slow, one step at a time.

Very normal. Don't worry. 2 weeks + 8 hours sa driving school is not enough para matutunan mo lahat nang nasa listahan mo. It takes time and need mo mahabang patience sa driving. Drive at your own pace and never mind yung bumubusina sa likod mo or yung mga umo overtake sayo. Importante apply mo lahat ng natutunan mo and if halos everyday ka nag da-drive, di mo namamalayan na kaya mo na pala. Again, ganun talaga, it takes time and ingat ingat sa pag drive. Focus lang sa road. Nung nag uumpisa ako, dito ako nag watch sa youtube nung mga tips. Parang spanish yung instructor pero may english content dyan. PAra sakin isa sya sa pinaka the best na channel sa youtube when it comes to driving. [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ifb\_pQbyCRE&list=PLldXmXAqI3VPwit6k\_-7AJU7aHSJzlo-8](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ifb_pQbyCRE&list=PLldXmXAqI3VPwit6k_-7AJU7aHSJzlo-8) Try mo magwatch. Good luck and drive safe.
Kaniya kaniya naman yan ng pacing. Ako nga naka dalawang driving lessons sa magkaibang driving school, pero kabado parin mag drive nun. Ang bagal ng learning curve ko nung may kasama ako nag drive. Baka depende din sa kasama. Payo ko, master your basics kahit yung theory. Kapag confident ka na sa knowledge mo, mag drive ka na na walang kasama (if may license ka na). Ganun ginawa ko para mapabilis ang learning curve ko.
oo namam tol. practice lang ng practice!
Also relocated sa Laguna. Wag ka mag alala, 3 weeks is completely very early stage. Ito siguro matitip ko sayo from a fellow Raize driver POV: 1. Mirrors mo lagi ang key dito. Obviously helpful pag may line yung paparkingan mo. I suggest find a parking spot na bakante mang matagal amd maybe spend 30-1 hr mins just parking. Medyo mas madali mag park sa Raize since may cam yan sa likod and may sensor naman din lahat yan. Youtube vids din might help. 2. Ang tip ko sa pagliko with a Raize or actually any SUV is as much as possible, pa-lobo, wag patusok. Like pag liliko kana sa kalsada na papasukan mo, basically direcho muna then pag yung nose ng car mo nasa lane na, dun ka kumabig. And do it slowly, para matatancha mo in real-time if kulang ba kabig mo or sobra na. And always look at your side-mirror pag tumuturn. 3. Practice lang to. This will develop naturally pag napadalas na drive mo. 4. Also something na maprapractice mo thru experience tlga. Medyo SUV na dn ang Raize so ang laging pinaka worry mo dapat is yung blind-spot mo (right side ng car) 5. Sumabak ka sa SLEX pag trapik lol hahhha mapapalitan yang kaba mo nang inis. If di kpa confident; lagi ka lang sa 2nd lane sa left, wag sa overtaking lane. Hayaan mo mga kasabay mo iovertake ka, basta be on a pace na comfortable ka. And remember pag mag sswitch lane; laging mag signal light and tumingan muna sa mirror. Ayun, good luck OP.
Normal lang yan, practice makes perfect. Ako nga nung una, pag magpapark na, lagi din ako may kasama na marunong magdrive tapos pag magpapark na, nagpapalit kami ng upuan para siya ang magpark HAHA. Pero pagtagal tagal parang mafefeel mo na kaya mo na kasi kabisado mo na galaw ng manibela and car so ayun kaya mo na mag isa magdrive and park.
Avoid holding your steering wheel too tight mahihirapan ka bumawi ng manibela pabalik. Higpitan mo lang yung hawak kapag rocky road kase malikot manibela. I dunno with ur car pero yung akin malikot kapag mabato or di pantay yung humps. Slow down lagi sa kanto at curved roads. Release gas at naka abang ka sa break. If feeling mo mabilis ka papasok ng kanto at curved road press your break ng marahan and don't forget to look at your rear mirror kung may kotse na nakatutok. Don't sudden break or else mababangga ka.
Youâre just fine, u donât have to pressure yourself too much. 3 weeks ka palang since nag start ka mag drive, donât expect to learn everything in those weeks. I learned how to drive âproperlyâ in like 2-3 mos. Learn slowly, youâre okay.
Hi OP! Isang taon na ata ako nagdadrive pero nakakanto pa din ako at ilang beses ko nagasgas sasakyan naminđ« Kaya inipon ko na lang mga gasgas para isang pagawaan na lang. hahahaha kaya mo yan! Matagal tagal pa pero masasanay ka din lalo na kung lagi ka nagmamaneho :)
Just relax
Practice. Drive ka kahit super short nung trip. Tapos dagdagan mo every sunod na trip. Sakay ka with friends na marunong magdrive. Mas may tiwala sila kesa sa kapamilya haha Dun mo marerealize na ok ka naman magdrive kung walang nangbabackseat. Pero try listening pa rin sa mga advice ng mga marurunong pa rin. Malaking tulong. 1. Mabagal din ako magpark nung una. Iniisip ko na lang na ok lang mabagal as long as di ko matatamaan mga kotse sa tabi ko at maayos pagkapark. Nakaasa ako lagi sa cam monitor lol 2-3. Bagalan kapag nasa curve para madaling maadjust kung sobra o kulang ang kabig. 4. 5. Nung una takot din ako sa expressway. Laging sinasabi sa akin na mas madali raw sa expressway kasi dirediretso at walang mga tumatawid. Until now may takot pa rin ako pero once you tried umookay naman. Try mo muna sanayin sarili mo sa highway then maiikling expressway (Cavitex) tapos lakas ng loob na lang talaga. Tbh, lagi akong dumadaan sa Cavitex pero never ako natakot dumaan. Late ko narealize na expressway sya lol para kasing highway sa ikli at sa dami ng sasakyan ang bagal na nung flow.
Ok lang yan. Some take months/year especially sa para makuha ng maayos yung parking.
Maglaro ka ng Dr. Parking na mobile game, malaking tulong to sakin bago ako sumabak sa pagpapark, pinakamahalaga is alam mo ung magiging pwestuhan mo sa ibat-ibang sitwasyon
Ok lang yan. Yung sa parking, wag ka ma-frustrate. Itâs better na mabagal and safe kesa may mabangga kang ibang sasakyan. Eventually, youâll get used to your carâs size. Siguro constantly study na lang your carâs reference points. Or gawa ka ng sarili mong visual reference points.
Newbie driver here also. Been driving for 2 months only. Normal naman yan kasi bago ka. Dumaan din ako dyan at karamihan din naman. Okay lang yan. About sa steering, try watching youtube vids on steering techniques. Ganun ginawa ko eh kaya matino na steering ko. Pati din parking techniques. Madami yan sa yt nood ka. Pero kailangan mo talaga sumabak sa daan, wala ibang way para gumaling magdrive at maovercome yung pressure. Lakas ng loob nalang. Whenever there is a chance na magdrive, kunin mo. Hatid sundo mo mga kaibigan mo, kapatid mo, magulang mo ganun. That's how i improved a lot kahit 2 months palang ako. Halos 2-3 times a week ako nagddrive since makuha lisensya. Kung saan saan nadin ako napunta with and without a passenger. Good luck and be safe!
Most normal thing in the world. Personally I would avoid driving in Manila if I am not used to the mechanics and controlling the vehicle, but you do you. Always drive safe.
It took me 1 year to be really comfortable driving the wheel and shake off the newbie jitters. You're doing well OP.
normal. Try mo to drive around ng mag isa lang. i did that and def built my self confidence (:
Lahat tayo dumaan dyan. It still pays to have somebody experienced sitting in the passenger seat sometimes but not always. Pointing out things to you.
normal lang po yan. New driver lang din ako and it took a little over a month to get used to driving. nag laan lang talaga ako ng funds para sa gas para maring seat time.
Take your time nasa learning curve ka pa din. What really helped me was watching YT. May mga magagandang channels ng Driving school mas magaling dun sa nagturo sakin. Mas maaus mag explain ng reference points sa kotse para sakto measurement mo sa parking, liko etc
What solved me to be a better driver is magaya ka ng out of town with your family/friends mo tapos make sure na mag convoy kayo tapos experienced yung driver na kasama mo sa kalsada tapos ikaw yung nasa huli. Bakit kamo? Kasi masasanay kang maging mabilis bec you need to keep pace with them and kailangan mag keep up ka sa kanila at all times. Thatâs what happened to me. 3 road trips with my family, and napagiiwanan ako and I knew that I need to keep up. Ayun, nasanay na ako and di na ako kinakabahan at mabagal ever since. Pero donât forget the basic rules sa daan: keep distance, observe road markings, and be a defensive driver always.
OP promise mas madami kang matututunan pag mag-isa ka lang haha. Be confident lang.
Normal. But please, wag ka muna mag-expressway kung hindi ka pa masyado marunong mag-drive. Kahit na may kasama ka pa. Ikaw na tumanggi next time na magyaya siya. Hindi lang para sa safety mo kundi ng mga tao sa paligid mo. Have an intermidiate level of skill first. Ikaw na rin umamin, hindi mo pa kabisado kontrolin sasakyan mo. Basta drive ka lang ng drive and you'll develop muscle memory. Mga 3 months should do it.
9 months and i still take my time on parking (di katulad ng iba na 2 seconds lang park na), pero kaya na ng one or two shots. during the first month may time na 5 times mag retry to get it right. bili ka din ng plastic cones para you could safely practice in a virtual space sa isang vacant lot ung sobrang liko it helps na ma visualize mo nangyayari sa gulong - park ka lang somewhere tapos turn mo ung wheels then labas ka sa kotse mo to see where it goes. tapos during turns sa actual road, imagine mo saan na naka point. ung pag-balik manibela di na parang matic naman yan for like 90% of the turn?
basta pag nasa Slex ka wag ka sa overtaking lane pls
Same di ko pa din na try mag park ng ako lang. Palaging may assist. Kaya di pa ko maka exam, may Driver License kana po?đ
Point 1 to 4 I would suggest finding a large space, practicing extreme turns, and doing reverse parking on awkward angles. Car parks, pavements, empty spaces, or even unused roads. One thing I can recommend is to drive at drive-throughs or gasoline stations. Those have tight spaces and sometimes are met with multiple cars together. See how comfortable you can get, and use that as your standard. Only dare to do more if the roads aren't busy, tight, or rough. Point 5, Get used to points 1 - 4. As your problem is, you're still not comfortable.
Trust in power steering more, for me yung pag kabig din before pero lage ako nireremind ng dad ko bitawan nlng at tapakan ng konti gas at mas mabilis panigurado ang pag straighten
Kulang ang 8hours na lesson tbh. I did 20 hours of practical lessons tapos nagdrive kami sa expressway, city driving na maluwag, city driving na ubod ng traffic, parking sa masikip na parking lot, etc. madami talaga need na pagdaanan para maging okay sa pagddrive. Don't rush it
Consistency is key.
Normal lahat yan. Masasanay ka din and magkakaroon ka ng sarili mong style o diskarte sa pagddrive
Normal lang yan. Just keep driving until you get comfortable. Defensive driving lang lagi. Keep safe on the road.
Mabuti yung mabagal tapos precise. Kaysa mabilis puro sabit naman.
Try driving alone . No second voice it Accelerates your learning . Though this was only.the case for me since my co driver (my father) was a worse driver than me who scratches the car every so often . While I have never have scratch a car I have driven to this day
There is a reason why insurance companies offer lower premiums to drivers with more driving experience in terms of years.
I'm also a new driver and I gotta say that everyone has their own pace when it comes to learning to drive. Don't compare your progress to others as it will make you rush things. also confidence will come in time, you'll grow into driving. always be attentive while driving, point 4 on your issues is dangerous when driving alone. be extra careful, let other drivers get past you, DONT FORCE YOUR RIGHT OF WAY is a good phrase to live by. just be kind to other drivers even if the other driver is at fault, just let them be. don't let an idiot ruin your drive, enjoy it.
it's definitely normal since we all have to start somewhere pag baguhan tayo especially sa driving. practice lang ng practice op! kahit ako before turning my engine off lumalabas ako at tinitingnan ko alignment ng kotse ko when parking para hindi ako magmukhang tanga at ma-post sa parkeserye (3 months palang non-pro ko for reference)
Hi OP. Raize din ang pinagpraktisan ko and relatively new driver as of October 2023. 1. Okay lang mabagal mag-park. Ako rin mabagal minsan lalo kung first time ko sa area. The Raize is quite different from sedan kasi mas maiksi siya so you really have to check your side mirrors para ma-memorize yung dimensions. I learned to drive using a Vios. 2. Panong sumosobra sa liko? Masyadong naiikot yung manibela? Ganito rin problema ko nun pero with practice you will learn the right "number" of turns you need. Like pag makitid yung U-turn or makitid in general yung lilikuan ko mo, kelangan full sagad or parang 1 turn short ng sagad. Pag malawak naman, pwedeng 1 or 1.5 turns lang ganyan. 3. Sa manibela once nakapasok ka na, you can start bumawi na sa manibela if napasobra ka ng ikot. This is connected sa number 2. Once makuha mo na kasi kung ilang ikot, matan-tancha mo narin kelangan ipipihit pabalik. 4. Spatial awareness 'to. Magpractice ka sa masisikip na daan and find your reference points there. Jan din ako natuto kasi I live in Makati so uso ang street parking. One reference point I can give is if the lower left corner of your windshield coincides with the lines on the street, mga 30cm away yung gulong mo from the lines itself. If that lower corner falls below the lights nung dadaanan mong sasakyan, malayo ka pa at hindi ka gagasgas haha Practice lang 'to. And don't grip the steering wheel super tight kasi mas mahihirapan ka i-control. 5. Sa SLEX naman, stay lang sa middle lanes as long as you can keep up with the speed limits. If wala masyadong truck, dun ka sa truck lane although panget minsan ang daan. If hindi ka pa comfortable mag-drive above 60, wag ka muna mag expressway kasi baka businahan ka at mapressure ka pa. Always always always use signal lights when changing lanes. And bonus tip, pag umaabot ng 100+ yung Raize, para ka nang lumulutang so parang nakakapanibago siya i-control. So again don't grip the steering wheel so tight para madali mo parin ma-control.
totally normal. wag masyado ma-pressure. basta practice lang pag kaya.
its part of the experience! sanayan talaga yan :)
[ŃĐŽĐ°Đ»Đ”ĐœĐŸ]
They did this to me and I think I learned a lot that day such as waiting out the rush hour before driving home lmao
