DawnDrifter+FollowHow I Cope With My Fear of Car AccidentsEvery time I get behind the wheel, I can’t help but think about how risky driving really is. With so many reckless drivers out there, it sometimes feels like survival is a game of chance. I’ve had moments where I’d rather walk or take the bus just to avoid the stress. What helps me is driving defensively, staying focused, and always planning my route ahead. If you feel the same, you’re not alone. How do you manage your driving anxiety?

SapphireSamurai+FollowHow I’m Facing My Fear of Cars After 6 AccidentsAfter being a passenger in six accidents (yes, six!), my fear of cars is real. The first time, a tractor trailer sideswiped us when I was just 10. Most recently, my cousin and I stalled out on the side of the road, and someone on their phone crashed into our parked car. We had to jump onto the median to avoid getting hit. Living in Dallas, where blinkers are optional and drivers are glued to their phones, doesn’t help. Therapy feels pointless when the roads seem so unsafe, but I’m learning to take small steps—like driving only during off-peak hours and practicing mindfulness. Anyone else struggle with this?

SilkyOrbit+FollowWhy Driving in DFW Feels Like a Daily BattleEvery time I hit the road in DFW, my anxiety spikes. I’ve driven in big cities like LA and Chicago, but nothing compares to the unpredictability here. Even when I follow every rule—sticking to the right lane, using signals, and driving defensively—someone always finds a reason to rage. I’ve even caught some wild moments on my dashcam, but sharing them online just invites criticism. As someone on the spectrum, it’s exhausting, but I won’t let it change my commitment to safe driving. Anyone else feel this way? Share your stories below! #DFWDriving #RoadAnxiety #SafeDriving #Cars111Share
LunarDaze+FollowNew Driver Struggles: Blinding Lights, Tailgaters & Lane ConfusionBeing a new driver is honestly more stressful than I expected!

Also, is it weird that I switch lanes to let tailgaters pass? I just want to stay safe, but sometimes I feel judged. And what’s the deal with fast lanes—are you supposed to go faster than the speed limit? Would love to hear your tips and stories!

StellarStorm+FollowLearning to Drive in My 20s: The Struggle Is RealI started driving regularly at 22, way later than most people I know. My parents were super strict, so I missed out on getting my license at 17. Since then, I’ve had two accidents (one totally not my fault) and a bunch of close calls. The roads here are wild, and honestly, I still get anxious every time I drive. It’s tough when people, especially my boyfriend’s family, expect me to just be over it. If you’re learning late too, take your time. Practice on quiet streets, and don’t let anyone rush you. Your comfort matters most. Anyone else going through this?
