I think one of the reasons I'm so worried about this is that some of the mistakes that I have made could have gotten me hurt as well. For example a couple of weeks ago I slid off the road in the snow and my neighbor had to come pull me out. I had to get under my car to attach a chain to my axel so he could pull me out. When I got back into my car I realized much to my horror that I had left the car in gear the whole time. This kind of absent-mindedness could really have gotten me hurt badly and that scares me.
