    I learnt how to drive in Dublin. A friend brought me down to the Quays and around there way too early and I was so frightened but apart from that Driving in Dublin is fine. I feel much more confident in built up areas, country roads can freak me out!!
    Guess it is what you know from expierence!:)

    No not at all.

    In fact, Its likely to make you a more rounded driver as you will be far more competent in urban driver than a person of equivalent hours experience who has not driven in city traffic. I'm speaking as a fellow learner who has taken all of my tuition and private practice so to speak in and around the City. In fact, I'm trying to focus on getting more experience on rural or semi-rural roads myself in order to round out my own skills.
