I really think I've decided that despite having a drivers license for both cars and motorcycles I'll never drive (or ride) either again. It just feels totally unnatural.
I find that that is one of the disadvantages of being car-lite. I practically never drive. So when I do, I'm insecure about it. I worry about how I will manage parking if I have to squeeze into a spot. I get nervous as a passenger when others drive. I think my fear of driving is a bit irrational, to be honest.

Having said all that, I'm not ready to use my car more often to regain my self confidence. I like bike riding too much.
