People may suggest anxiety is the reason behind your driving difficulties after an accident. It may and it may not be. It could be your vestibular system causing headaches and pressure in your head. It may be anxiety about not knowing how to process symptoms that come up for you when you are driving. It may be a combination. I had a road assessment 4 months after my accident and was deemed safe to drive on city streets.  It took me several months before I was able to drive myself to local appointments. To this day I have never been able to drive on highways while I know other survivors were able to drive right away. Every brain injury is different. I didn’t realize driving ability would be affected by a brain injury.
