Motor Vehicle
Travel Anxiety
- In our
society, DRIVING is viewed not only as a 'privilege' but
a necessity. When anxiety or disability occurs, it can
affect the skills necessary for independent driving, and
often, an individual's livelihood, personal life and
self-concept.
Common themes expressed by individuals suffering from
driving anxiety include:
- 1. I
feel on edge when in a vehicle. I just don't drive
anymore.
2. When driving, I am very concerned when people
following behind are too close.
3. I find I am anxious when others drive and I am often
pointing out hazards to them.
4. I get headaches and/or physical pains when I am in a
vehicle.
5. I am very worried that I might be in another
collision.
6. I often take alternative routes to avoid certain
highways, intersections or locations.
7. Driving causes more family arguments that it did
previously.
