    Driving is the most stressful thing many people do on a regular basis since one wrong move from you or somebody else can result in grievous injury or death.

      You would think that this would be part of it but people sure don’t drive like it is! People tell me I drive like an old lady because I’m actually cautious and go the speed limit. I’m not young and the people saying this aren’t young, either. These are people old enough to know better.

      Add to the fact that their lives are already stressed max, and they are typically either coming from, or going to, a place where they must be on time to the minute or it becomes an issue that can affect your ability to feed yourself.

      If only they would feel that way too. I assure you almost nobody driving a car feels like that. Hell, a ton of people even fall asleep while driving, that is how non-stressful and relaxing it can be. People treat cars like they are toys, not understand what they do (but thinking they do), that is a core issue.
