    Neither of us loves driving and we used to split it fairly evenly. Now with two carseats, DH always drives because the passenger seat doesn't move back far enough for him to be comfortable. Works for me

      DH usually drives, but I will if he's had a drink or needs to work while we go somewhere. Otherwise it's pretty automatic for him to drive. I don't really know why. I am a good navigator, but also a relentless back seat driver.

        If we are all together in my car we probably split it 50/50. DH doesn't really like to drive my car, its a pretty large SUV - he prefers his small sporty car so if its just the two of us we always take his, and he always drives.

          I don't like to drive. DH usually drives because he is a control freak and back seat drives when someone else is behind the wheel. But he isn't a good driver sometimes I drive so I don't get car sick.

            DH usually drives because my driving makes him insane. I drive too slow and apparently safely for his preferences. Although, I'll probably drive more on long trips since I'm the only one who doesn't get speeding tickets for at least 15 mph over the speed limit.

            My sense of direction is far better than his. I grew up navigating on ships and boats, so it's kind of ingrained in my head.

              I loathe driving. Thankfully, I have bad enough road rage that anybody who knows me knows not to let me drive.

                I drive because I have more experience and I feel safe. When dh was learning to drive here he'd often want to drive and force me to give him a driving lesson. Now he has his motorbike and doesn't want to drive the car as often.

                  DH is the definition of a control freak. Can't handle it when anyone else drives, unless he's extremely ill... When he's a passenger he actually pushes a factious break pedal. Freak show. Thankfully, I don't mind him driving miss daisy!

                    It depends. He usually drives, but I don't mind doing it. But if I haven't finished my make-up he has to drive. Yes, I can apply mascara while my husband drives 75 to get us to church on Sunday morning.
