Hello nyomet88

Welcome to the forums.

I found this information for you. Hope it gives you the answer for what it is called.

Amaxophobia is the fear of riding in a car. Hodophobia is the fear of road travel. Ochophobia is the fear of vehicles.

I dont think you be "feared" by travelling by bus. I have traveled by bus for over 28 years as long as i can remember (im 33) I have never been in an accident. I dont think you would either.
