Last time I worried about getting hit was a time I came down a hill into an intersection on a 4 lane street and I had the green light. A pickup truck waiting at the light started to make a quick left as I entered the intersection. I started to worry as he started to accelerate from a stop. I was doing about 20-25 in the right-most lane and as he accelerated he got within 4' of me. He crossed my path just behind me. Afterwards I was angry with him.

But you can't fixate on events like that, you have to focus on what is happening right now. That was happening right now for only a few seconds, and the ride was 3,000 seconds long.
