    Driving!

    Two years ago I took some driving classes, but they didn't turn out very well because of various things (two them being that they simply didn't give me good enough lessons and the instructors didn't take it kindly when you made mistakes ).

    I ended up fearing cars and the road for a long time until I decided that enough is enough and took classes, though, at a different place this time. The instructors were really nice every lesson (they didn't shout at me for making mistakes or anything like that). Last week I took the driving exam and passed!

    Now I have my official driver's license and couldn't be happier that I defeated my fear of driving! Yay!

      I started to fear people driving towards me at intersections after I almost got T-boned. Weirdly enough after I was rear ended I didn't really get anything from that (maybe because I and my two passengers came so close to death/paralysis that first time).

      Edit:

      "Green doesn't mean go, it means you can go" from the advanced drivers course I took as a kid. It means make sure you check to make sure everyone else is stopping and not going to mutilate you when they run the red light.
