I used to think that if I sit behind the driver in a car, I wouldnt be able to see anything and the door would fly open and I would fall out of the car and get run over by cars coming the opposite way!
I have no idea where this stems from, but ive believed that for as long as I can remember. I still cant sit behind a driver, I refuse to get in the car, but when im driving myself its ok ... as im in control of the car so nothing bad will happen to me. Go figure.
