Pop was so nervous on a military courier flight from Andrews AFB to Key West, the pilot let him sit in the copilots seat and fly the plane. I am the only driver he actually enjoys riding with in a car, but I have never seen him go to sleep riding in my 61 years on the planet. He has been in one accident in 60 years, t-boned by another driver running a stop sign.

I hate being a passenger, always preaching to the driver about some potential danger or poor operational tactic, which is why I usually end up driving, and showing them how great the mileage can be out of their cars, at least the ones that have instant fuel economy readings. Had the daughters Murano up to 35 MPG going 60-65 down the Interstate.
