On the other hand, if the driveshaft U-joints (on a RWD car) happen to fail, other drivers can find themselves trying to dodge a 6-foot steel shaft bouncing down the road. Or if you drop a transmission or rear end, or a wheel falls off - all of which I've seen happen - then what? All of these things, and many others, can and do happen, yet the danger doesn't seem to bother anyone.
