In the city this is true. I learned to drive on highways and suburban streets, and it was much less stressful. Transitioning to city driving took practice and, most of all, objective-based transport methodology ("I have to be at a client's office in 10 minutes...I'm turning!!").
Agreed. City driving has more stimuli (more turns, more pedestrians, narrower roads) and less ability to correct for mistakes (more one-way streets, more traffic - you can't just pull over in a parking lot, check directions, and turn around).
