Car Ettiquette for Dummies

To expand upon my driving topic, I would like to bring the focus to within the four walls of the car, and explain a few things to you about appropriate car behavior. Here are some rules we should all abide by:

1. If the driver of the car has just cranked up a song because they are obviously excited about it, this is a bad time to change the station.
2. Boys, you should open the door for girls. I don't care if you're all modern. It's just nice. You should do it. It's the polite thing to do.
3. When you get out of a car, you should make sure your door is locked. Some of us still have ghetto cars, not the fancy shmancy cars like yours that has automatic locks and possibly one of those little key chain buttons that makes your horn honk.
4. Keep your bodily functions to yourself. That's all I'm sayin'.
5. If I want to yell at the car in front of me for being a pansy, you should agree with me. Unless you want to walk.
6. If the driver needs assistance with navigation, it is the person in the passenger seat's responsibility to help them by consulting a map or whatever written directions they are handed. Stop trying to intuit how to get to the location. Learn how to read a map. It's your job.
