Some passengers (particularly Type-A control freaks) are very scared when I'm driving, because I don't have regular depth perception, and I tend to apply the brakes a little more lightly and gradually than they would themselves. Combining these two things make them freak out in close traffic, or at lights that are turning red. Honestly, I haven't had a wreck since my college days, but still there are people that will want to go somewhere, and insist on driving now. Which is fine by me, because I'm more likely to mess up with them screaming in my ear every five minutes.

Maniah's a lot like that as a passenger, it makes driving for her incredibly obnoxious. Thankfully, it works out: She hates everybody's driving but her own, and I hate driving. So I get a Chauffer, and she gets peace of mind.

Victory!

I had never really thought about it before, but my wife is a bit of a control freak while I am not - except when we drive where it is reversed.

My girlfriend hates my driving so much that she makes sure that she always sits in the passenger seat when we go anywhere to make sure she doesn't miss anything I'm doing wrong.

Mrs Bear only trusts my driving when:

1) She's drunk
2) Not in the car

Now, does this mean both criteria have to be met? Because that's pretty harsh.

... Or you're a really shitty driver.

I'm kinda lucky. My wife trusts my driving despite my limited experience. Me, I get twitchy as hell in the passenger seat, which means it sucks when my hips hurt too much to drive. And yes, that is possible even with a slushbox and power brakes. And since the only painkillers that can cut that make me too stoned to drive...

lol, no, there should be an "or" in there. I've gotten less than a dozen citations for parking or for expired registration, no moving violations. The only accidents we've been in was twice we were rear ended by ppl with led feet, and she was driving on both occasions.
