Is it normal to dislike driving?

Mostly.Normal for most people

Yes—lots of people dislike driving, whether it’s the traffic, the pressure of staying alert, or simply not finding it enjoyable. You don’t have to love it to be a perfectly capable driver.

Driving can feel like a lot of work: you’re watching the road, making quick decisions, dealing with traffic, and hoping nobody does anything wildly unpredictable. Some people find that stressful or boring; others just prefer being a passenger or using transit. All of that is pretty ordinary.

If you do need to drive, it’s fine to make it easier where you can—choose calmer routes, leave extra time, or take breaks on longer trips. Disliking driving by itself doesn’t mean anything is wrong with you.
