Personally, I find it endlessly frustrating and even terrifying to be in the passenger seat with a driver who jumps in the car and immediately goes.. Then worries about Seatbelts/Radio/AC/Mirrors/Plugging in Phone/etc etc while driving.

I'm not a huge fan of my father-in-law falling asleep while driving on the highway and then lying and saying that he was just thinking/meditating. I guess, also add my father-in-law thinking that driving down the highway is an acceptable time to meditate.

Recently one of my family members got license and a car. Great! However, whenever something happens that person always starts to shout, insult and behave like a child throwing a tantrum.

It made me going from “oh you want to drive to x place? Alright” to “no, it’s okay. I will take the bus” real quick.

Using their phone, e.g. trying to snap it into their phone holder, planning a route, that sort of thing.

Well... Driving a tesla, letting the autopilot do the work, showing off the amazing acceleration and using the karaoke function while driving when it explicitly tells you as you start it up that you shouldn't use it as the driver.

My mate is usually so sound of mind and an absolute delight to be around. But i just don't like driving in his tesla.

Just being a passenger makes me uncomfortable.

Mood.

The only person who I’m comfortable riding with is my partner—they drive very safe.

When the driver is drunk. Inevitably after a party someone will offer to drive me at least part way to home. I try to resist but when I'm also drunk saying no is hard.

Not braking smoothly / suddenly braking. Literally makes me queezy.

Daredevil left turns

Which is basically every left turn in NYC

Puttimg their seatbelt on after they start driving. Driving the car with the driver begging center of the lane rather than the car being center of the lane.
