Actually, my number one rule when I'm driving is that nobody in the car is allowed to suddenly scream "LOOKOUT!" or "EEEEK!" or "OHMYGOD!" or "OH NO!" or anything like that, including sudden gasps or anything that might imply that another car is about to hit us. For the life of me I don't know why people do this, but a handful of people (my wife and my mother, mostly) do this frequently, usually over something stupid they just saw on a billboard or something. You know like "OHMYGOD! . . .Did you know they put in another Denny'* over here?" -Man, that drives me nutz. When people do that I usually just lock up the brakes. That usually puts an end to it for a while.

That, and opening my car doors into the car next to us in a parking lot. Women always seem to do that.

The best fix for that is to let them out near the door and go park far out in the lot

No food or drink, no smoking, no dirty shoes, no messing with the radio, no leaning on the paint, no touching the glass or paint, no playing with anything in the car unless I say so, including my police scanner, and of course, no snowballs!!!!
