I explicitly think of the goals of driving as 1) don’t die, 2) get to destination. I do this because it helps me remember not to do dangerous things, and to not feel as bad about making wrong turns (because I feel like I’m doing badly at 2 but well at 1, rather than just plain driving badly). I don’t visualize what dying in a car accident would be like or anything like that, though.
I think seriously about death of humans kind of often lately, but that’s probably because of some circumstantial stuff lately. During more normal times, I think I don’t think about death of real people very often, but do think about death in fiction sometimes.
(I also get the sense that I’m less horrified by death than is normal in this community.)
