I also am aware how isolating living in Grey-Bruce would become is such fears paralyzed me ( which I know they would!!).I have had three close calls in my eleven years of long distance work commuting. The last 5 years ago saw me blow a tire when I hit the ditch hard and how I DIDN'T roll was an act of divine intervention. Two were due to ice,( did three complete 360's mid road after an iced bridge before hitting the ditch)and one slush filled day found me ditch bound.I am unsure if you have tried cognitive behavioural therapy but there is a good therapist in Owen Sound ( Annabelle Garland) who might be able to give you some tools to deal with the panic attacks.It sounds like you found a good outlet in writing however!

He thought he was going to die so took his hands off the wheel and relaxed...he didn't want to stiffen up and die hurting. I broke down when I saw the vehicle in the stream. Horrid mix, icy snowy roads and cars.
