Contiuning what I was saying in my post for Years I avoided taking 2 lane roads if possible to go anyplace I hated them. Real fun when most of your family lives off the beaten path huh. Try being so scared on a two lane that you actually had sucked up the seat cushion into your butt crack that was me the first time I had to take a 2 lane road after the accident in a semi.

KillerRabbit, I really relate to your situation as in my 44 yr career as a driver I have been involved in 2 no fault fatals. This may seem really cold and heartless, but after my first one with the help of a therapist, ( I was a mental write off) I was able to relate to the vehicle as a carrier of commodity in which the commodity was a total write off. Fourteen years later a second situation arose, there was a lot of witnesses and people to assist so I did not even approach the vehicle, which made the therapists advice a little easier to use. I do think of of those situations and wonder if I could have done anything differently, but not in the over powering debilitating way that the original incident did.
In time things will become a little less over powering in your mind and the realisation that you could do nothing differently (the car driver could have) will help Good luck in your healing
process.
