I am afraid of getting lost-- even with 2 forms of gps!
I am afraid of merging onto highways
I'm afraid of stupid/aggressive drivers
and I'm afraid of changing lanes at high speeds
Those are all pretty rational fears. I know that for me, there are times where I would want to do nothing but drive. At other times, driving is the last thing I want to do. You may have a specific phobia disorder though. You seem to be afraid of pretty much everything that could happen
Thanks for this!
