The thing that most often worries me is, without a doubt, deer. This may be related to the incident where my wife hit a deer while test driving a brand new Prelude Si in heavy rain, or it may just be because we have so many deer, and so much deer related damage, in this area.

In heavy traffic I'm a nervous reck in the S2000, but when I'm expecting heavy traffic I usually leave the Honda at home.
Did we combine this with the recurring dreams thread? There's the unprepared for test thing again!

I only fear my children getting hurt while I'm driving.

Who is your avatar? That's impressive...

Worst fear while driving? Inattentive people in large vehicles.

Whatever my 18 month old would kick you in the face while sleeping, like she does me, and you'd be out for the count.

That's actually how people greet eachother in Canada! You should see how my business meetings start...

Just seems like the police are more commonly resorting to excessive force these days. Or maybe we just have more cameras to document it.


BUUUUUUT back on topic.

I am afraid of people parallel parking around me. I always make sure to make the situation as safe as possible so they don't back into the front of my car. The back of my car, I just figure they better not drive head first into me when I'm not moving.
