I have a fear of semi-trucks. Whenever I'm in a car and a semi-truck happens to be driving next to me, I start getting very nervous and sweaty and if it doesn't leave quickly, I start to hyperventilate. I know it's funny but it happens.
i am so afriad of semi-trucks. everytime im driving near one i change into a different lane, if its in front i slow down, and in back i speed up. if im not driving ill close my eyes so that i dont have to see it.
hey i have a fear of semi-trucks and i wondered if there was a name for it?
When I was in elementary, a semi truck almost ran into a car full of me and some of my friends (driven by my friend's dad). Since then, I have been terrified of them. I have nightmares about getting run over by semis, and when I drive past semis, I get really nervous. This fear was compounded by the fact that yesterday, my friend was driving with me inNYC and we were exiting on a road that had cement walls on both sides,and it narrowed into one lane, and we were next to a semi and we barelyescaped being squished between the cement wall and the semi. This mademe even more afraid (my worst nightmare almost came true) so I was looking up this fear and found your website. I think that this fear should be called rigophobia and that it's somewhat justified because many truck drivers don't drive safely.
Fear of HGV's Grandemotophobia (Big motor fear) It might not be true, but it is a true fear, I have it.
