Don't put a death grip on the steering wheel. I found I was doing that when I first got behind the wheel. I was doing it subconciously and couldn't figure out why my hands were bothering me so much.

I don't think I ever relax totally when behind the wheel. Being too relaxed can get you in a bad situation real quick.

just take it easy and YOU be the Driver and don't let anybody push you and be comfortable with what you're doing.
