I always feel nervous driving over level crossing train lines. One day I'll get wiped out, I'm sure of it.

What silly things make you nervous?

Currently, driving.

I've had two surgeries on my eye in the last 18 months and haven't been able to drive as a result. In the next week or so I can get behind the wheel again, I admit I feel a frisson of nerves

Standing at the top of a steep flight of stairs or an escalator- I'm always terrified I'm going to fall down them.

Iirc, this is an actual physical thing something to do with catastrophising or some such.

Drain covers. Cannot walk over them as I'm sure they will collapse and I'll be in the sewer with broken legs.

Interstingly my old pony wouldn't walk over them either, always side stepped them. I figured he was just clever and saving us from certain doom. Nope. He would happily step on them if I wasn't on him. Fool that he was. Tbf he probably thought I was the fool and side stepped to avoid me freaking out on top of him.

40t heavy goods vehicles on the motorway or roundabouts. I'm a very confident driver, but after being cleaned up by one back in 2008, I've been very wary. If they encroach into my lane, it sets my fight or flight response right off. Hate them!

Driving behind agricultural vehicles that remind me of the scene from Final Destination. It's always terrifying for me and there's absolutely no reason, no real logic behind it.

I'm not going to be involved in a horrific freak accident where a log suddenly comes loose but I still find my heart racing whenever there's one in front.

It's not entirely a silly fear! I was on the motorway behind a lorry filled with soil/mud. The back flap thing failed and there was mud all over the motorway. It was so slippy, I skidded everywhere and thought I was a goner. One of my scariest moments

J"

I witnessed something similar as a truck drove around a roundabout....The said truck was loaded full of Bales of Briquettes....all the briquettes began to tumble off the truck ....omg how no one was indured or any car damaged I do not know....traffic was moving slow at the time so that probably helped with no injuries

Getting cash out the cash point.

I always imagine a comically strong wind blowing it out of my hand and having to do that thing where you go to pick something up and the wind blows it, so you do that little jog to get it and the wind blows it again and you have that moments doubt like ‘oh no. This is my life now. I’ll never pick it up’

It’s only happened once but the fear since

"Three point turn on jetty’s, so paranoid about the car falling in the sea it becomes a 9 point turn. "

It is actually a thing that can happen. It has happened before and resulted in the driver dying.

Not sure that helps your fear any though. Sorry!

I feel nervous just thinking about it. I sometimes visit Wells next the sea in summer evenings and the only place to park is on a concrete slab in the sea, it’s horrible.

A stretchy wrap was the only way I could carry my daughter. I've never picked her up off the ground and up. Stretchy wraps are ace, I'm sad I didn't have one for my son. Mr KC used to love carrying her on his front too

She still straps on my knee in the wheelchair sometimes, though I can't bloody well see anything

"Driving behind agricultural vehicles that remind me of the scene from Final Destination. It's always terrifying for me and there's absolutely no reason, no real logic behind it.

I'm not going to be involved in a horrific freak accident where a log suddenly comes loose but I still find my heart racing whenever there's one in front.

It's not entirely a silly fear! I was on the motorway behind a lorry filled with soil/mud. The back flap thing failed and there was mud all over the motorway. It was so slippy, I skidded everywhere and thought I was a goner. One of my scariest moments

Thanks Julie, thanks Louise. There's nothing like two people validating your fear of being in a freak accident as an actual possibility. Guess I'm not driving down country lanes any time soon now.
