On a scale of 1 to 10 (10=worst) how nervous do these situations make you?

<p>“Only getting on ramp the highways. Plus, when you’re driving in a place unfamiliar or too city-like”</p>

<p>I changed my mind after this; it bumps my 1 to a 2. Here we have on-ramps attached to off-ramps making it ridiculous to merge over in some cases. One of them has like 3 yards of lane to merge, in a busy area, and it’s off I-95, which is awful to merge onto.</p>

<p>Now that others have mentioned it, I’ll bump driving to a 4 but ONLY when merging onto certain highways. There’s this one merge I took today and that I’ve taken a few times before that’s basically a deathtrap. There’s a narrow window of opportunity for you to merge usually. You ALWAYS have someone who’s trying to exit (it’s a weave lane) and the merge lane is incredibly short. Had a near-miss on it today.</p>

<p>Whoever designed it was probably high as a satellite</p>

<p>I actually have an anxiety disorder, but you picked mostly things I don’t mind doing. XD I used to have a problem ordering food if others were with me (but not when alone) but that went away. Also used to have a problem with making (but not receiving) phone calls, but not anymore. </p>

<p>What’s so scary about shopping for so many people!?</p>
