Personally, I find it endlessly frustrating and even terrifying to be in the passenger seat with a driver who jumps in the car and immediately goes… Then worries about Seatbelts/Radio/AC/Mirrors/Plugging in Phone/etc etc while driving.

    In movies sometimes they do it for freakishly long, obviously because the car isn’t actually driving or because it’s sitting on a trailer. It’s become a trope, some films parody it.

      Lloyd’s first conversation with Mary in Dumb and Dumber. Should be required viewing in driving schools.

      Yeah and it still gets me a bit nervous seeing those scenes, even though I know it’s fictional.
