Any of your friends or family you absolutely dread sitting in the passenger seat with? I don't like being a passenger at the best of times and only really trust my Dad and brother when it comes to driving. My ex-wife was about the only woman I know who can drive a car properly/well. My Dad's friend is an ex-RAF chap, you wouldn't think it the way he drives Slow, stays in the wrong gear up hills, bloody liability. Same can be said for EVERY other woman I have ridden with (no road sense) in particular Renee who is a diabolical driver. Almost crashed twice on the way from High Wycombe to Heathrow last year ....but my oldest brother is the worst. Anyone give you the 'eeby jeeby's' driving the car?
Just a couple of my mates, who think they are fantastic because they are breaking the speed limit. I try to avoid being in the car with them as much as possible. On the other hand. My mum is the slowest driver I know. You would be quicker or just as fast walking.
couple of people that i used to hang out with would have me gripping the door handle and frantically slamming an imaginery brake peddle. I dont see them anymore...
One of my mates at work seems to think it is cool to go at about 70 in a 30mph zone..yes he is a chav racer. Only been in the car once with him, never again!
I remember being in someone's car and feeling really unsafe, can't remember who it was now though . I've got a few mates I feel comfortable with, as well as my Mum and Dad.
my dad is a terrible driver who goes too quick and shouts at everybody else for being a bad driver when really he is the worst
My bro in law can be a bit dodgy at times, fails to pay attention. I've already been in one bump with the silly bastard. As for the subject of speed, I tend to go a little fast, If I'm own my own, i.e. 40 in a 30 zone, and when I say that I mean like a busy road, not like a 30 zone in a housing scheme or anything. Whenever I have someone else in the car, I rarely go above 30-33.
a mate of mine who always thinks he's a better driver than me or my other mates... he says "which one of us has written a car off" (I have... he hasn't) but then again he drives a 1.0 shed. As soon as he got a car with a decent engine... he crashed it. What made it funnier was the fact it was a courtesy car that he had because someone had crashed into him at a roundabout. I'm an awesome driver.
My daughter is learning to drive and I sat beside her in my car this morning. At one point I didnt think we were going to stop! . I shouldn't criticise her. She is doing quite well really and has been having lessons for the last couple of months. I have to say I was quite relieved to have reached our destination without being in the middle of a pile up
I'm a good driver i think. I never go fast, around 40 on 30 roads [just because 30 is too slow]. My brother when he was younger was a right tit when he was driving, miles too fast everywhere. I hate being a passenger with my mum now i have passed my test because i always think she gets too close to parked cars.
I brake late on corners/bends which seems to scrare people especially when the cars in front are braking... I have a 998cc car so i have to use these kinds of tricks.
:Banana: Same as me and same sized car too. I used to get stick for going round corners too quick, when really it was the size of the car that felt worse. I once got the comment "it feels worse than my Dad's Jaguar" I had to laugh.
People in the passenger seat tend to use the imaginary break Worst thing about having a 998cc is on motorway if someone pulls out infront of you it takes a while to pick speed up again.
