Is it normal to get scared during car rides

Every time I'm in a car ride, I think of these crazy scenarios of if I got into a car crash.
Because of this I always get really uneasy and hoping I don't die during that car ride.
Is this normal

    You have nothing to fear but fear itself.

    Btw, I totally made that up and in no way stole it from a motivational calendar that was quoting FDR, so I expect to hear a lot about how wise and profound I am.

        Ignorance, unacceptable ignorance. In your haste, You forgot the abos. They gifted me their traditional bark paintings when I traveled to Arnhem Land in aught 60

        But seriously, the Christians are a vile lot. who would dare believe in such a vile judgemental evil gawd, who judges others!

        Let me take a minute to judge Australians....you all live 2 miles from the beach and swim in shark infested waters, and something about your shitty education system in relation to g-dub, omg and don't forget that racism that took place in your cunt-tree 50 years ago.

        Please remember to use your spell-cheecker, bootches, gawd!

    You have every right to be afraid of riding in a vehicle. More people die in motor vehicles than from any other single cause (over 30,000).
    Riding in a vehicle is probably the most dangerous thing anybody who isn't into extreme sports can do, and yet most people do it every day. Go figure?

    It sounds like some sort of anxiety thing. Do you have other anxiety symptoms? If not, then you just have a great fear of the road, which is understandable. Good luck.

    I used to get panic attacks in cars especially on the highway. Now I take meds and am fine
