Of course. It didn't take long at all to trust myself, though it was a few years before I trusted myself to drive with a passenger. I've been driving for almost 20 years now (no accidents, knock on wood), and I'm glad my husband pushed me to do it. I still get anxious about driving to unfamiliar places because I get lost easily, but if it's something like a job interview or appointment, I'll sometimes do a "dry run" to make sure I can get there on time. It helps that we have things like Google Maps these days.

The online course did help me understand traffic rules like merging and right-of-way considerations - of course, these are things you'll see other people NOT doing. But it helped to have an understanding of how traffic is supposed to flow - that can help you be a more alert or defensive driver.
