I was now worried that we wouldn’t arrive before nightfall, and my fears <u>weren't </u>helped by the drivers eccentric behavior. Although it was dark, he still hadn’t turned the vans lights on.

Fearing that we might all have to spend a night in the jungle, I ventured another question beloved of children everywhere. “Are we nearly there yet?” Just one more hour was the reply.
I checked my watch. Sunset was in 10 minutes. Fifty minutes on an unmade trail at 40 miles per hour. In the jungle. In the dark. Just great."

Additionally, it might denote possession, as in "Jane's automobile." The apostrophe denotes that Mary owns the vehicle.
