Was following some chap earlier today and every couple of seconds I could see he was turning toward his passenger instead of looking where he was going. IMO this is more of a problem than using a mobile phone and that's bad enough over here.

So, I was wondering what the SN collective do.

For the record, I try and look where I'm going even if I'm arguing with the missus.

It really unnerves if the driver looks at me whilst I'm a passenger I don't do it myself whilst driving, I'm too busy looking out for scameras, speedguns, pedestrians, two a breast cyclists, the 40mph everywhere brigade, oh and where the road goes of course

I don't look at my passengers if I'm driving but my seat is that far back I have better vision of the rear seat passengers anyway.

Just one would be great but totally agree in principle.

Oops, I meant 'abreast' of course although I'm not impartial to the odd moob or two but prefer a finely honed lycra clad butt

Last person I saw doing that was a young lady talking to her female passenger, just before she drove into my rear bumper when I stopped at some roadworks traffic lights!

I actually hate talking when I'm driving or if I am talking I find myself stopping all the time as I'm concentrating on driving & forget I am talking!

Wife hates going on long car journeys with me as I'm so chatty I also get a lot of passengers that fall asleep on long journeys lol

You don't shut up when you're a passenger though, I remember you nattering on all the way back from Silverstone when I gave you a lift that time

Maybe it was the all free champers you'd quaffed that had done it?

I was thinking about that trip as I wrote that post

The racing, Champers, Fosters and the memory of Status Quo as the sun went down - awesome

& pleasant company

He's too big for me to control

Is that me or all the luvverly laydees in the VIP hospitality that were attending to your every need that you're referring to?

It was a fantastic day, I never thought I could enjoy The Quo as much as I did And followed by a topless drive home on a warm summer's evening

Seems the majority look where they're going, so far. Perhaps you lot should move over here

As an aside, as a passenger do you expect your driver to look at you if you talk at/to them? Obviously, you'd prefer them to look what they're doing but if they look at you, repeatedly, do you say something or keep schtumm (sp)?
