when your in the passenger seat of someones car, and they decide to rag it a bit do you get nervous? i really dont like not being in control and i find my self pressing the imaginary brake. but when im driving i know i drive like a complete wanker sometimes.

I feel nervous and people who don't know me feel nervous in my car - but once they get to know me they chill out.

Yes used to be fine until my mate spat us into the dips (big bowl like fields in new brighton promenade) after trying to negotiate a big roundabout at 85 he had also crashed into a sandstone wall a week previous while I was there tbh I get really nervous of driving fast myself

I hate being driven by anyone, I think there is only about two people I know who I feel really safe in a car with, never used to be this way until I saw that it can all go pear shaped very quickly. Even if I get offered a lift I usually prefer to drive myself.
