@merc never thought about it in the driving sense, and that car was a write-off, believe me! Lucky I didn't find the matches too. The shark on the other side of the wave at Maroubra the pothole in Manly harbour beach, other near-death experiences.
I was involved in two bad car accidents on Parramatta road..The accident where we rolled a few times and skidded upside down on the roof where it stayed upside down was on Mamre Crescent or Road St Mary's..I was trapped upside down in a bad way..Everyone else got out and were okay..It's this last accident I can't shake off to this day

I love driving on road trips, (new places/roads/countries, etc). Sydney driving/traffic, much less so. I don't have a car atm, and don't really miss it....
Merc that's terrible had not luck at all. My road dog border collie was a trip in vehicle. She went everywhere I went. Move my keys she was at the door ready if we weren't going nowhere. She's gone. You have had some rides in vehicles. I see well auto collisions are accidents. My Friday 13th is top dog. the others are somewhat phonomal with having bad luck if no luck at all.

I was talking to a lady once, who told me she (willingly) forfeited her licence (handed it in herself); because driving made her "extremely nervous", and she could not overcome this...
lovecanbereal•7 mins ago•Sydney, New South Wales Australia Hi, merc
Over years I have had 2 car accidents. One was bad for expenses (mine); and the other one was bad for an injury (mine - since recovered, some scars). Does this make me reluctant or nervous to drive - no way!
Can't you get your confidence back, to start driving again? Are the nerves that bad? Are you waiting for Self Driving Cars?..........
I was a passenger in all those accidents..Why do I need to drive?..I have legs..I have buses & trains..i have boats & ferries..I have planes..Why do I need to drive?..I would love more than anything to be able to be a passenger where I can enjoy the journey.
I no longer drive..Back then I was whizzing around driving a manual..I loved it..I wasn't driving during those accidents I was involved in..I was a passenger..I was hurt n all three accidents..I didn't claim compensation once..I need my head examined
I have my own taxi driver every Friday afternoon..He speaks broken English..Every time he pulls up at the taxi rank to help me put my groceries in the back of his boot..He's very dramatic when he see's me..Throws his hands on his head then throws his hands in the air..In broken English he says omg here she is..I hope I have my headache tablets with me
I'm a terrible passenger because I'm bloody petrified
Swamie thanks bunches for sharing your pics..I love em [/b}
I would love to get on a bike again..My last ride was a guy losing control of his bike..This was on a bike track I attended most Sundays..I couldn't get out of the way in time..He turned his bike so as not to collide with me..Unfortunately the side of his bike smashed into my right knee..I should have scars galore for proof but I don't
I didn't ride again..I looked at it like I can only control me I can't control idiots..My knee was a mess for too long for my liking..It was excruciating to put up with..If I ever get with a guy who rides I would love to be a passenger..I could handle that..Who know's gain my confidence again and maybe ride once again
Sometime when squatting & lunging with weights on my back I get a very deep sharp pain in that right knee of mine
Dogs get patted on the head..I'm not a dog..Why they have that stupid thing I will never know..I'm not cranky just being honest..I am smiling as I type
