I'm assuming you know how to drive and are just looking for experience on Spanish roads?
If so, the first thing I did, a number of years back, was just to watch YouTube videos of 'Drivng in Spain'. They were great and helped imensely. However, have to say, it really is straightforward once you get the hang of it.
Thank you . Yes I do drive but feel I would benefit from some lessons to build my confidence. ..I have never seen any learner drivers on roads in Spain ???

If you get driving lessons the problem is the language barrier you are better off driving with some body who has experience of driving on Spanish roads I have lived here for 18 months at first I drove right handed side car now I have a left handed side car what a difference I find driving on spainsh roads very easy like every where else you have your idiots but generally the driving in Spain is quite good
Thanks for your reply much appreciate it

Perhaps it helps if yoy get on the road at 3 or 4 am (not on weekends) and just find your way. Tricky: roundabouts - leave their center on your left and proceed counterclockwise. After 10-15 minutes you should have taken enough confidence to say "Yes, I can". Lots of luck!
Thanks I will try that

Hi
I felt the same when i came to Spain last year.
To make it simple if i drive english car in england or spanish car in spain.
Just remember the middle lines in the road are always on the drivers side.
Hope this helps
Thank you
