Bit of an odd one folks but.. who or what, if anything, watches over you on the roads?
St.Christopher? Saint Frances of Rome?

Do you have any rituals?
Does anyone fist-bump a little dog mascot before they set off?

None of the above. Nobody watches over you. Your driving skill keeps you safe.

That is all.

I suppose if you didn't you could have a major fallout.

You've got to have a little va-va-voom people, a little eccentricity! Where is your imagination?

Excuse me but I am serious, my guardian angel always looks after me.

1. Put seatbelt on.
2. Hope scarble isn't on the road.

That's about it really.

Those aren't things that'll keep me safe, they're more likely to put me on the same stretch of road as scarble.

A 'lewards' holy water filled Virgin Mary on the dashboard and my lucky butt plug keep me safe whatever the challenges posed by today's road users.

y u mad tho? :3

Nothing special for me,
I usually pat my car, tell her she's a good girl (her name is Ashley), ask her how she is. If it's not raining windows are all the way down. Always try to allow a little time for her engine to warm up as it's about 50m from my parking space to the NSL. I have a small elephant made from copper wire who repels bad spirits. Before I set out I remind myself that it's all just a beautiful lie.

ETA: Love that logic Papa, you just sit in your car at the side of the road with your seatbelt on, one less cheap, lying, no good, rotten, floor-flushing, low-life, snake-licking, dirt-eating, inbred, overstuffed, ignorant, blood-sucking, dog-kissing, brainless, d**kless, hopeless, heartless, fat-ass, bug-eyed, stiff-legged, spotty-lipped, worm-headed, sack of monkey s**t getting in my way.
