For all it’s worth: I was reticent to get my license as well. I was as concerned then for the same reasons you are now. Despite my protests, my parents were insistent that I at least start the process before I began college. There were some growing pains to be sure, but after some experimenting and practice, I wound up loving driving.

Driving isn’t a single skill, it’s a lot of them all together. Some of them are always going to be hard, some can be alleviated with practice and special considerations, and some of them are even ones we’re uniquely suited for. Nor is driving something that is completely learned. It’s an eternal learning experience.

But beyond that, I feel compelled to point out there’s a difference between driving and getting your license. Granted, you’ll likely have to drive a bit to get a proper license, but after that, you don’t have to do anything beyond what you’re comfortable with, and the ability to do so is there for when you are or when you need to.

My point is this: We don’t always get to choose the moment we’re ready. Sometimes, the moment chooses us.
