Do you like to drive?
« on: May 08, 2015, 04:22:36 am »
I am finding the older I get, the more I do not like driving. I like being able to
get in the car and go where I need or want to go, but do not like to drive.

I absolutely hate driving. And I agree with you, melodylogan45. I, too, find that I detest driving the older I get. But just because I hate to drive, doesn't mean that I do not LOVE, LOVE, LOVE my car. LOL.

I really don't like to drive but I hate riding with my husband. He is the worst driving in the world. He makes me sick when he drives, so I drive.

I have no issues with driving.  It's the idiots on the road that can't put down their phone or pay attention to what they are doing that I seem to have an issue with.

I like to drive as long the traffic is not bad and I have a good sleep the night before. The other day I was driving in the Texas Highway and I closed my eyes for a moment, when I realized that I was about to fall asleep, that was scared to death.

I am 74 and still like to drive.  I bought a new car year before last and I get in it any go where ever I want too.  I hope I never get where I can't drive.  I hate to depend to on someone else.  Hope everyone has a good day and may God bless each of you and keep you safe. :)

As I get older I like to drive less and less.  I let my husband do most of the driving.

I have learned to enjoy driving. Since I lost my husband, I am getting new perspectives on many things. Taking in the scenery while I am taking a trip is wonderful. I also find that driving does not frustrate me as much as it used to. I still had being in a traffic jam. BMaston12

I don't hate to drive, but I would prefer if someone else did it.

I like driving around, but I absolutely hate being tail-gated and so many drivers do it now.  >:( It seems no matter where you are, all the cars on the same highway line up as closely as possible. I don't know if it's a herd mentality, if they think it's a drag race, or if the traffic lights just kind of arrange it that way, but it makes me bananas.  :confused1:

I've been rear-ended so many times from a standing still position that I constantly keep my eyes on the rear-view mirror. That behavior has saved me from a rear-end crash a couple of times.

But I stay pretty tense and frustrated if someone is riding my back end too closely. There's not much you can do about it.  :-\

I love to drive especially fast!  I'm the one who is always driving when my husband and I go any where.  I always wanted to be a race car driver when I grew up... and still do!
Have a wonderful day!

I like driving because it gives me alone time and it is relaxing to me.

No, I do not care about driving, do not like it at all.  I only drive because I have too, if not my husband or my daugther will drive me.

I love driving, I am the one who does most of the driving when we go places, unless we take the crotch rocket out then he obviously does the driving.
