National Vehophobia Awareness Day™ #nvaday

Celebrated annually October 17 to raise awareness of motor vehicle operation safety, and how unsafe operation may spur vehophobia-the fear of driving and/or being hit by careless drivers on roadways; founded by Advocate Greshun De Bouse-who previously loved driving-but after being hit by a utility truck, and a careless uninsured driver who both rendered her vehicleless and with vehophobia, she has developed an aversion to driving.
