Cars
"Here in my car", said 80s pop hero Gary Numan, "I feel safest of all". He obviously never shared the same stretch of road as me, then. Automotive tales of mirth and woe, please.

Hit and get chips and run
I was walking to work, when a drunk driver tried to park outside the local fish and chip shop. It was a dark coloured 4X4 with a shiny cattle bar thingy on the front. The driver mounted the pavement, hit me, knocked me sideways and finished parking. I was lying on the floor, not remembering a lot of this, then a woman was asking me if I was okay. I remember the car pulling away as I was being helped to my feet/calling an ambulance etc. The driver had apparently gotten some dinner from the fish and chip shop and driven away, not realising what they had done. The town is small, but it was the school half term so the police didn't find the vehicle from my concussed half-description.
I had concussion, scrapes, bruises and a dodgy ankle. And a crippling fear of all 4X4s.
