PholkTales: Near Catastrophes
So my friend Dennis and I were cruising on down in his old-school Toyota 1985 Van, when all of a sudden the shit starts smoking....the bad news is that the battery is inside the van (hence: it being old-school).  We pull over, air out the van, get it moving again with smoke filling the inside as if we hot boxed it, not so lucky though. 

We get to this party in the woods (Friends' lake house) and get all shitty, so my friend Joe drives us home.  On the way home, the van busts into a burst of smoke, and the breaks start smoking.  At this point we are all yelling and freaking as we feel we will die in seconds.... somehow we coast about the 5 miles to home w/ break pads smoking, engine blasting, and the tape player blasting Moma Dance... it was like an amusement ride, i nearly shit my pants twice! Unfortunately, the van died but the memories live on...

Editor's Note: Well, at least the smoke kept the driver alert... at least he didn't really have the option of falling asleep at the wheel.
