I've always found the best solution to such fears is "Don't crash".
Simple.

The other day I saw a stopped truck on the other side of the road.
Behind the truck was a car with a slightly damaged bonnet.

And a slightly more damaged boot.

Half a dozen cars behind was a mangled mess of metal that might once
have been a car or a van, with another truck pressed firmly into the
remains.

With a 2CV you would of course be more likely to be in the truck lane
than the other one on that dual carriageway...

Migod. This explains why I've been killed to death at least seventy-three
times over the third of a century I've been driving 2cvs, across the US
and from the southern tip of Greece to Northern Scandinavia...
