switching places

A German couple stunned highway police when they were spotted changing places behind the wheel while driving at 50 miles per hour, police said on Thursday.- Reuters

Must remember not to switch places while driving in Germany. I have done that only once in my lifetime. In my defense I was really young and we were only going about 5 km an hour on a dirt road. Hey it was in the middle of the night and we were coming back home from a long trip. What? We really weren’t up to stopping the car, and there wasn’t anyone around so we switched mid drive.

No, it is not something I would recommend doing, unless you have both been driving for a while, are both sober and are going at a really slow rate. In other words, ‘Kids don’t try this at home, without adult supervision‘ and then, well, just don’t try it. OK.

I used to do that quite often on road trips and whatnot, but I haven't done it in quite some time!! LOL

50 mph is *a bit* too fast i think...

I'd like to see somebody try that on a motorcycle.

Come to think of it, I guess I wouldn't like to see that.
