This, compounded with a high school friend of hers hitting a deer and getting killed several months ago may lead to many arguments about riding.

Ugh.

Time to fight fire with fire. What vehicle does she drive? Oh, one of THOSE.

A friend of a friend was driving one of those and died in an accident. I think you should drive this 1969 Buick Electra 225 ( or some other land yacht )because it's a much bigger car and therefore much safer than yours. Don't worry about the shitty paint or that it smokes excessively, it just part of the safety you get with it.

Seriously, you can't live your life in fear. EVERYBODY dies, no ifs, ands or buts, it's going to happen.

Do what you enjoy ( safely of course ) because nobody knows how long they're here
