i am driving home vs i am driving to my home

Both phrases are correct, but they're used in slightly different contexts. 'I am driving home' implies the speaker's going back to their place of residence, while 'I am driving to my home' specifies the destination as the speaker's home. The choice between the two phrases depends on if the focus is on the action of driving or the destination.
