      Keep it up, the more you drive the more experience & confidence you will gain, motorways are supposed to be the safest of roads.
      A couple of main things a very good friend told me when i first drove on the motorway was:
      * Always maintain a good distance from the car in front of you.
      * Also be alert to the cars and traffic conditions that you can see ahead of you; just so in case cars suddenly come to a stand still or slow down drastically (if this does occur; then briefly switch on your hazard lights just to warn the car/s behind you).
      Best wishes and good luck with your driving.

    Omg😩😭 I’m driving from Birmingham to London for the first time in a week & a half with barely any motorway experience. I’ve been driving 6 years this June but I’ve been on the motorway for very short journeys about 5 times and I’m absolutely shitting it🥲

      Many years ago, a few pieces of advice a very good friend told me when i first drove on the motorway:
      * Always maintain a good distance from the car in front of you.
      * Also be alert to the cars and traffic conditions that you can see ahead of you; just so in case cars suddenly come to a stand still or slow down drastically (if this does occur; then briefly switch on your hazard lights just to warn the car/s behind you).
      * If you do happen to start feeling drowsy whilst driving, pull into a service stop & freshen up.
      (I've found that if my car is too warm & cosy it starts to make me feel drowsy; if that happens I either cool the inside temperature or open the car window & the drowsiness stops, bear in mind that if you open the car window at great speed it will feel very gusty in the car).
      * If your schedule allows you, try to drive with the sun behind you (to avoid the sun glare dazzling you)
      * Nowadays the speed rules are enforced using speed cameras, whatever speed signs you see stick to that speed (cruise control comes into it's own when you need to maintain a steady speed)
      The more you drive the more experience & confidence you will gain, motorways are supposed to be the safest of roads.
      Best wishes and good luck with your driving.
