Unless you’re strapping into a race car, there’s almost always a seat for a passenger. You’ve probably had many memorable experiences in your car with someone sitting beside or behind you. It could be a date night with your significant other or taking your child to their first day of school. However, not everyone who steps foot in your car is welcome to come back.
We want to know what’s the worst thing a passenger has done in your car? Did someone just pull out a lighter and cigarette for a smoke without asking? Maybe a friend covered in mud hopped into the passenger seat recklessly, or a relative splashed the interior with a large milkshake during a drive-through run. Whether severe or minor, I want to hear it all in the comments section down below.
While more than one driver views the ideal passenger as someone who can’t speak or touch anything, a bill was introduced last year in the Virginia General Assembly that took this line of thinking too far. The legislation attempted to answer a question that nobody asked, “if life begins at conception, can pregnant women drive in the HOV lane?” Lawmakers proposed having women register their pregnancy with the Virginia DMV, the first ingredient in a recipe for authoritarian government control over women’s healthcare. Thankfully, the bill died in committee.
