Hope you all had a wonderful Christmas, and hope you'll have a grand New Year. This morning I took my mom and her dog to the vet to get checked out, no...just the dog got checked out not my mom. Anyway, As I was driving I noticed every time I took a curve or was a ways from the next car her facial expression changed like she was about to die! Her hads came up to the dash! Now I only got that away with my ex wife who drove like a mad woman! But I drove the speed limit knowing how much my mom hates driving. It made me really nervous. My question to you is...Do you know or you are a nervous passenger when someone else is driving? If your driving does the passenger make you nervous with their responses? If your riding are you the passenger that makes the driver nervous??? If there is many of you that do this, you all need some sort of help because it really gets on my nerves!!!!

Hi Johnny Knoxville, question 43!
Yes.
Yes.
Yes.
:D
I like to be in control, so I like to drive. I don't always get to do so, however, so I tend to not pay attention to what the driver is doing because it stresses me out - and there's enough stress in my life without me adding more! When I'm driving and someone does, or says something, I normally just slow down, look at them and ask them who's driving, or say something about the car having only one steering wheel, etc.
Maybe when it's time for you to take your Mom anywhere, you should take a nerve pill to chill out, so that when your driving whigs her out, you don't get whigged out yourself. :D
good luck to you Johnny Knoxville!!!!

I am a nervous passenger and I cannot help it. I think it is all in my head because it is not that I don't trust the person driving it is just that I don't trust the people in the other cars on the road. And I think that a big part of it is because I am not behind the wheel, so I don't feel like I have control of my life at that specific moment. It's weird, and I don't know how to control it completely, but I am getting better!
