I got my permit two days ago and i have drove twice( each drive about 10-15 minutes long ), i have taken drivers ed and got a 15/15 on my permit test but i feel like im a horrible driver, yesterday i tried to park a car and i failed miserably, i also forget to look over my shoulders when i change lanes, and i am trying to only use one foot while I drive but i'm in the habit of using two feet. Is this normal and are there any tips.

Most probably cause you're new to driving. Thats what I think
You will adapt to it soon enough.

It is normal. You just need to practice more. The more you practice, the better you will get!
& try to break that habit of using 2 feet as soon as you can! When I had my permit, I used to be pretty awful at parking, but now I am fine. Biggest way to improve at driving/parking is practice!!

Yes, it is normal to be a bad driver at first simply because you've never driven before. Just keep driving and you'll get better.

The more you do it the more natural it will become and it will feel easier. Practice makes perfect.

I have drove my Dad's automatic a few times with no issues. The other day I was coming out of the garage he was behind me in a lorry and I almost crashed into a BMW lmao. It's just concentration and practice.

You will gain more experience as you start driving more. Its ok to be very cautious at first.

Good luck
