Vicky, both of mine are driving now. There was a time when I didn't think my son would ever be able to drive, let alone want to leave the house. His tics are very much subsided now compared with when he was younger so they weren't really too much of an issue for him when he was learning. He's doing just fine now although I got a lot of white hairs attempting to teach him in between his driving school lessons at the start. Not sure how it all works there, but here you have to do a written test of the road rules/laws and also a driving test. He did just fine. Considering all the anxiety and social issues my son has had all his life, I am very thankful that he's now at a stage where he can be somewhat independent. I think the key is practice, practice and more practice. I admit that I worry about them both out on the road. It's not so much that I worry about what they're doing, I worry about what everyone else is doing.
