What is your worst fear driving among other vehicles?

Wow that is so terrible to hear and traumatizing.

Suicide by semi. That happened to a friend of mine. Nothing he could do to miss him.

I always concerned about that have seen some accidents where a small car was in the blind spot and they got crushed. I the driver of the small car was injured.

My worst fear is always that a car is going to get into my blindspot when I'm making a right hand turn. I do my best to position the truck so this won't happen, but there are always those who want to sneak up over the shoulder or do whatever it takes to get in there.

Can driving at night decrease a lot of these concerns?

My worst fear..already happened 3 years ago in VA.

I was hit in the arse by another truck...I was pulling a loaded (7500 gal) tanker full of ACETONE.
Totaled his truck and my trailer...no leak though.

But now I don't pull HAZMAT anymore..

So what scares me the most now is the other drivers of all vehicles..you never know what the other guy/gal is thinking.

Remember,the world is full of idiots and most of them are driving right around you!
