Tell us about your scary motoring moments:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Motoring should be fun, but most of us have experienced really scary moments at the wheel or in a passenger seat.<\/p>\n

For example, British actress Kristin Scott Thomas – who lives in Paris most of the time – describes driving around the Arc de Triomphe as “one of life’s great adventures”.<\/p>\n

“It is fantastically frightening,” the star of The English Patient<\/em> and I’ve Loved You So Long <\/em>told BBC Top Gear<\/em>‘s Jeremy Clarkson.\u00a0 She recommends tackling the giant roundabout in the centre of Paris in the oldest, most battered car you can find so that the other drivers give you a wide berth.<\/p>\n

Maybe your scariest moment on wheels was related to a carjacking or other car crime?\u00a0<\/p>\n

Former Formula One champion Jenson Button has had lots of adrenalin-raising experiences on the track, and a particularly memorable one on public roads.\u00a0 He described as a really “scary situation” when armed men attacked the armoured Mercedes in which he was travelling as he left the Interlagos track in Brazil.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Some cars or their drivers can be scary for various reasons. In the USA there are many custom car enthusiasts who go to extreme measures to make their vehicles distinctive – personalised number plates would be easier and less gruesome than this effort!\u00a0<\/p>\n

And with the growing problem of road rage and aggressive clampers, you run the risk of meeting some really scary characters when out in your wheels!<\/p>\n
