Where do I start. I have 2 of my childhood budz, and their son. They were driving over the bordor and just happened to the ones they picked to tear their vehicle apart to find nothing but a traumatized child.
Planes crash.... one reason or other. I have been on planes. Hate the landing, fog etc. 
Pirates if at sea....or some kinda cruise ship virus,or whatever. OOPS, man overboard.
I don't stress out driving across Canada. I realize accidents happen. But I'm in control.
I'm well aware it's fairly big world out there. But there's still the east coast of Canada left to see for me. Montreal. Ottowa. Nova Scotia.................
