People may have different personal experiences when using the same thing, depending on their circumstances
For instance, riding in a car can lead to vastly different outcomes.
Some might have a negative experience, such as being involved in an accident, which could result in trauma.
This trauma might cause them to feel scared of riding in a car again, even if they fully understand how to use it.
Emotional factors, such as fear, can outweigh their knowledge in such cases.
In contrast, my experience has been entirely positive since I’ve never been in an accident. Riding in a car for me is always enjoyable and free of negative feelings—I simply sit back and enjoy the journey.
