Edit: My father is a little disappointed or maybe sad that I don't drive. My mother too

i don't drive because of how my best friend and her parents died 22 years ago.

detailsother driver was experiencing cardiac arrest while driving, swerved across the median and crashed into them. i was told they died instantly in a big-ass fireball but according to a report i found years later, the whole family died from smoke inhalation whilst unconscious. so like, not only was i lied to, that lie just put me off driving forever. idk what's worse tbh.

my own dad is too dead to care, but before that he was happy that i at least learned to use public transport. i'm too far away from my mother now to care what she thinks about that.

ETA: come to think of it, my mom was the one who perpetuated the fireball lie...
