How about the fact that he is driving defensively?

And it’s not a good time to flap him since he’s driving. Just bring a book along.

Distracted driving is a good time to find out the quality of your health insurance.

He’s probably focusing on his driving, in which case this is probably a good thing, Abby.

That said, I have noticed this seems to vary on the driver—some can hold full conversations while driving without sacrificing their driving ability, while others cannot.

Yep…drive alone, you get to listen to your music and zone out. Bring the wife along, you have to talk.

I yell at the characters in movies/TV shows, that turn and face the passenger they are talking to as they drive.“WATCH WHERE YOU ARE GOING!”.

As a driver, I do more talking when I’m by myself than with a passenger. This is because I can use the privacy when I’m by myself to sound out everything from real-life matters I’m dealing with to passages I’m looking to write in the various fiction titles I try to produce, while when I have a passenger I generally put an extra focus on the road for their safety.
