Name
What is the proper name for this condition?

On PubMed, "driving phobia" appears 20 times, "driving anxiety" appears 20 times as well.

"amaxophobia" and "vehophobia" do not appear at all. "amaxophobia" apparently means the fear of traveling in a car, not to a fear of driving.

Among review articles only, uses both "driving anxiety" and "driving phobia". uses "driving phobia", but it's only referring to the fear following a car accident. uses "driving-related fear (DRF)".

DSM-5 and ICD-10-CM don't appear to have anything related.

People with the condition refer to it as "driving anxiety". Isabela31 (talk) 18:28, 7 January 2022 (UTC)
