I almost got into an accident and it's been on my mind all day...

Yeah, I was fucking awful. In my first driving test, I think I got about 10 major faults. It's a damn good job he didn't pass me, even though he was a miserable bastard. This was after well over a year of lessons.

Many more lessons later, and my second test... I almost passed. I did one stupid thing that he had to fault me for. Third time was the charm! I'm definitely a better driver for having fucked up and getting more practice before being let out on my own. I've gone from hopeless, and never thinking I'd ever be able to do it, to not causing an accident in 20 years of driving.
