The Top Ten Signs That You’re a Backseat Driver

Backseat driving isn't just one of the most annoying things people do, it's also downright dangerous. That being said, turn signals were invented for a reason, feel free to use them.

A new survey found that 7% of people have gotten into an accident because of a backseat driver. Which is very high, especially considering that only 21% of people admit that they ever do any backseat driving.

Apparently we need to clarify what it means to be a backseat driver. Here are the top 10 things they do, according to the survey:

1. Criticizing the driver's decisions.
2. Complaining about them going too fast.
3. Gasping when they brake.
4. Flinching when they get too close to another car.
5. Complaining about them going too slow.
6. Pointing out when to turn.
7. Pressing an imaginary brake pedal like you're a drivers' ed teacher.
8. Giving the driver advice on switching lanes.
9. Pointing out when lights turn green.
10. Insisting on giving directions.
