If your daughter gets anxiety or panic attacks while driving, I suggest her to get professional help/therapy instead of avoiding particular (but common) traffic situations. I’m talking from experience. Fostering the anxiety now by not acknowledging it, might end up with an ever longer road to recovery for self confidence later on.
I hear your argument, and I agree to it. For new drivers it should also become common sense to plan your route save and thus comfortable.
But OP specifically mentioned his daughter experiences anxiety. That pushes it into a different category if it was not meant metaphorically.
