True. The wife and I usually take turns driving since she's a good driver...with my ex I drove all the time.

You do notice alot of stuff when just being the passenger that you miss while being the driver.

When on the bikes sure...we miss a lot on some rides due to the pace but we also like to cruise from time to time to take in some of the scenery...no biggie to me since I'm not here to impress everybody else anyways. I know I'm not Valintino.

sometimes a nice relaxing ride taking in the scenery is the best therapy at the end of the day

I hate being a passenger in a car. I see things that most don't and have to keep my mouth shut about the drivers speed, tailgaiting, what the other cars are probably going to do. Goes back to driving truck, developed a 6th sense about what cagers are going to do. Has saved my ass more than a few times on the bike. Perfect world is about 200 feet between me and anything around me.
