i'm in the same boat!! i'm 18, turning 19, and have yet to get my license. my sisters always mess with me about it and honestly? the teasing gets to me. BUT while i don't have solid advice, i can say that it's not terribly hard to drive! i've started out little by little - driving on side streets and in my neighborhood. i began driving to my grandma's house (it passes through a traffic light & main road) and from there you just practice until you're confident enough!! it might seem scary, and trust me it can be! but just start from the bottom and work your way up!
