"A backseat driver is a vehicle passenger who is not controlling the vehicle, and seems to be uncomfortable with the skills of the driver and/or wants to tutor the driver while the driver is at the wheel." -Wikipedia
I'm about to retire driving all together, which I'm sure most men would wish their wives/girlfriends would. Trust me, its not just funny jokes on TV, or movies, it happens to me in real life.. the boyfriend, back seat driver that must have been a drivers education teacher in a past life.. ugh! Let me just humor you all for a while.. here's what I generally get told while driving, keep in mind, and this is no exaggeration, this happens all within 10 minutes of being in the car together.
-Get out of this lane
-Get over!
-Don't follow too close
-Don't follow behind this car/truck/van..(whatever car is in front of me)
-Go the speed of traffic
-Go faster
-Slow down
-(some form of grunting or sighing comes in)
-Pull over so I can drive
-Watch where your going
-Turn your music down
-Its too hot in here
