Dangerous driving 💥

I got a recall letter from the manufacturer of my car: the airbag might fire sharp things at me! I enjoyed the irony that, in a minor accident, a safety device could go off and kill me.

There's no charge for the fix, which is mildly surprising as the car is nowhere near new. So the other day I took it to be fixed. On the way, a parked delivery lorry was blocking my side of the road on a blind bend. I had to go onto the wrong side of the road without being able to see very far ahead at all. I enjoyed the double irony that I could be killed not only by a safety device, but while on the way to get the device replaced.
