what’s the biggest thing you wish new drivers understood?

I see so many new drivers on the road who seem nervous or unsure — totally normal, we’ve all been there.

But it got me thinking: what’s the one thing you wish every new driver in the UK knew or did differently? Could be something about motorway driving, roundabouts, patience, or just general road etiquette.

What do you think makes the biggest difference between a nervous new driver and a confident, safe one?
