I passed my driving test, but I’m still really nervous to drive. Is this normal?

Back where I used to live there was this one turn. The road banks to the right, goes over a tiny bridge where there is a stream (and a massive water wheel, looked awesome!), immediately rises into a hill while turning to the left, cresting the hill into a hard right. I thought it was going to be some super tricky and hard thing to do at first, and I remember saying that to my dad. He laughed and reassured me, and surely enough... Yeah, it was nothing.

To put it in the words of the great stoic Seneca, "We suffer more often in imagination than in reality." Get to it and you'll find it more comfortable. Just don't get so comfortable that you become less vigilant and aware! That results in poor driving.
