Default Passenger reactions

Saw this on Youtube.................I always wondered how passengers react when you start to drive it in a "spirited" fashion.
Watch the change in reactions at about the 1:00 mark when the driver starts to wind it up!!

Mine just tells me to f***ing stop it, or calls me a dick.

Let me tell you, the drive home from Deal's Gap was quiet.

I always know I'm going to get some kind of a comment when we're entering a highway, and going around a big looping entrance ramp...

I feel that it would be irresponsible of me to enter the freeway too slowly - causing other drivers to brake at highway speed. It's my responsibility to enter the freeway at speed...

That was very cool. Fun to watch the fast hands of the driver. Like to see a lap with a split shot of his hands and then the footbox and watch the steering inputs and tapdance at the same time.
