I have a friend who's wife drives him most places. Maybe I'm too old school but that creeps me out. Not surprisingly he's a democrat.

My family has taken several looong road trips (20 hours or more). My wife drove 0 hours and 0 minutes. I like to drive though.

Not a dinosaur, but I'm simply a better driver.

It depends. Our height difference makes it a huge pain in my ass to sit there and futz with her seat to get it all the way extended back and down.
I literally cant fit my knees in the car if she has the seat set for her.

So if we’re taking her car, I’m 100% fine not driving.

This thread reeks of guys that couldn't train their wives! No, not that kind of train

. I drive for a living, and I ride the bike, so she usually drives where ever we go. She has control of the kitchen, I have control of the grilling. Rookies!

My wife has driven like 4 times. 2 to sleep on the highway, 2 when I was drunk. I'm pretty sure she beats the shit out of her van. Nascar driver but I dont know for sure.

If we take her car, she will drive 75% of the time.
She drove half the time we drove out West and back a couple years ago.

Sorry you guys married idiots that don't know how to drive well.

I basically drive for a living, so she drives me around when I'm off (except in shit weather). Know your worth, kings.

Nope.

I never let her get a driver's license.

I have never been driven by my wife of 12 years, I am of the mind if I ride as a passenger with her as a driver she will kill us all spectacularly

Posted: 1/20/2021 9:50:53 AM EDT

I drive 95% of time.

In 25 years I could count on one hand how many times shes drove me around. So that a No.

We take turns. I much prefer surfing my phone as does she.

I make her drive once in awhile as I know she doesn't like it. Got to keep her on her toes.

Her car, she usually drives. If we are driving long distance, I’ll usually take a turn or we will swap on the return trip.

I don’t like driving her vehicle.

My wife doesn't even have a license, so no, she does not drive me around.

Posted: 1/20/2021 9:55:31 AM EDT

Yes. She gets car sick if she is passenger.

I can totally admit to the fact that I am a horrible passenger. There are only two people that I am somewhat comfortable being a passenger with my dad and my twin brother. All three of us have been professional drivers at some point in our lives. My wife scares the shit out of my when she drives.

Driving and household finance threads are usually a riot.

I got blasted when I mentioned in the past that my wife and I keep separate accounts, as if it's somehow impossible to marry a financially responsible woman.

She drives 90% of the time because I loathe backseat drivers and she's the worst offender! Every time brake lights illuminate for a moment hundreds of yards ahead and she'll immediately start yelling "They're braking! Slow down!"

Or... "Why are you going this way? Blah blah blah..."

And... "How fast are you going?"

Fuck that shit. I just let her drive and I get to relax and surf the web on my phone or enjoy the scenery.

Yes. Retired going on two years now, she still has about 13 years left. My day consists of beer for breakfast, shooting off my back deck and scratching my balls. Most days I don’t even wear pants. My F-150 (MasterRace), hasn’t even had 500 miles on it in 2020. My woman drives me everywhere. So, technically I’m a Pimp.
Pics of woman.

Best post on GD in a long time. This is old school GD before all of the crap we are in now. Thanks for showing all the recent arrivals how it is done.

I am 69 years old and have been driving since I was 16, never had a ticket or wreck. Several months ago I started having bouts with vertigo that came on with no warning. Rather than risk the lives of other people I do not know, I swallowed my pride and quit driving. My SO drives me every where, and I like it.

I prefer my wife to drive because she bitches at every little thing I do when driving. “Why you driving so fast?” “Why you going this way?” “Why you parking so far away?”

When I drink, which it quite a bit. I often have a roadie with me.

I'm not adjusting her seats to drive hers

She's also allowed to talk in public, have bare shoulders in public and talk to strangers. Even vote

No. My Wife actually prefers I drive and so do I. Unless there is a good reason. Like my wife drove last week after I had lasik done. Even then I feel like I should lean my seat way back and smoke a Newport like those lazy ass deadbeat boyfriends that don’t have a license and their girlfriend drives them around all day in her beat up honda.

The worst is the husband boyfriend sitting in the car while the Wife/girlfriend is pumping gas.

Guess I’m just old school.

My wife doesn't even really drive anymore. The only time she drives anymore is if we go out and I get too sauced...which never happens

Posted: 1/20/2021 10:06:23 AM EDT

[#38]

Very rarely, she is an excellent driver but if there isn’t a specific reason for her to drive she hands me the keys. I wish she would drive more cause I never get a chance to rubber neck on the road.

Posted: 1/20/2021 10:06:42 AM EDT

Her car: she drives.

My car: I drive.

There's a substantial difference in height between us so we don't bother adjusting seats and mirrors.

Posted: 1/20/2021 10:07:00 AM EDT

[#40]

I drive unless I don't want to drive. That's only when I've already driven a long time or I'm getting tired or sleepy.

Posted: 1/20/2021 10:08:50 AM EDT

[#41]

Sometimes. If we go in her Telluride, I prefer she drives. Mostly has to do with seat adjustments, not having to mess with mirrors etc etc

I guess that's okay if you can't afford a helicopter.

I knew this thread would be full of poors. How do you live, having to walk to your helicopter? Mine is kept inside and the roof of the volcano retracts should I need to *shudders* go somewhere.

Depends on where we are going.

I'm a far better driver, but why not let her drive sometimes?

I didn't marry a sad sack of shit that can't drive, and I don't believe my balls are going to drop off if a woman drives me anywhere like some "real men" in this thread.

I even make her fill up the car at the gas station since the tank is on her side.

I bet that gets some "men's" panties in a twist.

I always drive and find it super odd when I see women drive their man around. I am also younger so it very common. I even know couples where the wife takes out the trash

. I come to realize I was born a few generations to late.

View Quote

Meh. Trash gets taken out when it’s full. No reason to wait on someone else to do what either is perfectly capable of doing, especially when it means there’s trash just sitting there marinating.

Who’s driving depends on a lot of factors.
