It's bad enough to have a panic attack while you're standing still. Imagine how much worse it is to have one when you're behind wheel of a car.
Some people have a fear of driving period. For others, the problem only comes up in specific situations like crossing a bridge.
Having a panic attack while driving is a somewhat different problem. Any panic attack causes a person having a great deal of distress. That distress is even worse when they're behind the wheel of a moving car.
Not only is a fear of panic intense, but there's the added fear of a possible accident.
Also, because we use cars so often to get around, trying to avoid driving can severely curtail a persons life. Public transportation doesnt completely replace the automobile, even in most cities. A person thats unable to drive misses a lot.
Just because a person has had a panic attack once while driving doesn't mean that you have one every time they drive. But they don't know when one might strike so they hesitate every time you think about getting behind the wheel.
This leads a person was had a panic attack to gradually withdraw from circumstances and activities where they might have to drive.
Someone outside the situation can clearly see that it would be a better idea to eliminate the fear rather than eliminate the driving.
