There are a lot of scary stories in this thread. There seem to be some common things that have some reasonable solutions to prevent them from happening to others....

1. Wheels coming off....check your nuts boys...well I guess girls too.
2. Driving in the rain at night.....This is dangerous..even in a modern car.
3. Brake failures....Check your brakes often...
4. Night driving....I upgraded to 6v LED lights...almost as good as my modern car.
5. Not being seen by other drivers....I drive with my bright 6v LED headlights on during the day and I have LED tail lights and a third brake light in my back window. My LED tail lights are brighter than the tail lights on my modern car.
6. Highway driving...stay off the highways...

I am sure there are several that I am missing....
