my #1 fear is the police lol.

I hate when I'm going 120+ and the thought "what if there's a cop up ahead waiting.." comes to my mind. I don't know about other states, but in Illinois, if you get clocked at 31 over the limit you get arrested on the spot. I usually go by the speed limit, but once in a while I will go at it, usually with a friend.

I'd probably have to say hit and run. This happened to my friend's supercharged Miata 2 times in parking lots, and I can only imagine how pissed off I'd be at someone who did it to me.

I truly understand your feel. That feel grew stronger after my license was suspended.

Also, "What if a pedestrian walks out behind a parked vehicle on the street." All these little thoughts scare me sometimes. When we are driving fast on the street, we are basically presuming that "no one's gonna run out". Obviously if we don't do that, we can never drive fast, but the thing is if "Shit" happens, it's too late to regret.

To lose control over the car. I feel a little safer now in an Infiniti, but in the S2000 it was my biggest fear.
