Calm down a bit and tell your mother this:

It's a waste of money to be doing your in-car classes if she isn't going to help you find time to practice. You need to start slowly yes, and go out at quite times of day, like Sundays mornings or right after school before it gets busy.

You MUST practice or you won’t pass. That would be a waste of everyone's time and energy. Not to mention disappointing.

You simply don't get enough time in a car in the lessons. Your instructors will say the exact thing.

After you very calmly express that to her, here is the REALLY important part:

ASK her what the problem is. Is she nervous in the car with you? Does she have trouble making time? Is there something you can do to help? If she doesn’t want to help you with this, is their a neighbor or friend of the family who could teach you instead. If she is unwilling to drive with you, would she be willing to pay for a few extra lessons? Show her this is important, not by whining or begging, but by listening seriously and offering practical solutions to whatever the problems are that she is facing.
