Unsafe Feeling

Have you ever felt totally unsafe driving your car. That's how I feel right now. Now I am going to vent:
I hate my car! I hate that every time things are going somewhat smoothly, something else goes wrong. I've had my car towed twice in less than a year, 3 or 4 dead batteries, my muffler is broken, the passenger door leaks water when it rains, and the tire just came off the rim, along with other instances I can't remember. Today felt like the icing on the cake. As I was driving I literally felt like I was in one of those cartoons where, if I stopped the car, all 4 sides would just fall down around me. The car was shaking so bad I could feel it in the dashboard and in the back of the car. I am terrified to know what would've happened if I had taken it on the main road going 45 mph. I'm thanking God right now that I didn't go out on the main road!
I've been praying a lot over the last several months that there will be a way we can afford to get me a dependable car. Unfortunately it hasn't happened yet. I know my parents work as hard as they can to keep me and my brother in schools we want to go to, so I feel awful when I go off on them, but I don't know who else to go off on. Right now I feel like I should cut down on my driving by walking to classes and going with friends to the grocery store when I need to. So for now I will continue to pray.
"Strength will rise as we wait upon the Lord."
