Anyone else hate being a passenger when someone else is driving?

I know just how this man feels. I am so used to being the driver that I have now become a white knuckle passenger.

It must be something to do with loss of control. My son who has been driving for a year was taking me to town and constantly making me push the imaginary brake pedal and looking behind to see if he was cutting anyone up. It's mostly all in my mind I know as he is a good driver. But not being behind the wheel myself is making me believe that I'm the only one to be trusted. I have had to bit my lip.

Oh do I know the feeling! That's very real. I don't like my daughter's driving hahaha. It scares me to death as she takes too many chances and drives too close to other cars. We're just very much more secure, driving ourselves. I wouldn't be afraid if she was slow down but I dare not say a thing anymore because she would just get mad. So, I don't ride with her anymore. Hahaha I know what a scary feeling that is. Bless your heart!

@LadyGrace It's that mother/child thing I'm sure!
@mossyboots Not for me. I recognize that I'm so used to being in control that I'm afraid and insecure when others drive for me. It's the unknown. I like being in control when I drive. That way I know I'm safe.
