A sense of direction really comes in handy when you’re trying to navigate anywhere new. But unfortunately, not all of us have a natural knack for knowing where we are or getting where we’re going — some people have a propensity to always get lost, even with directions! There’s nothing like being stuck in the car for an hour circling the same streets to ruin a person’s mood.

Relationships are all about sharing, from feelings to responsibilities. But some things are not as easily shared as others, like driving. I’ve found that many individuals in relationships consider themselves a better driver than their counterpart so much so that they either demand to be the driver or won’t allow their significant other to drive their car.

Though I try to walk or use public transportation as much as possible, San Francisco is not New York, and life demands that I hop in the car and face the open road every now and again. The problem is, driving in traffic or dealing with aggressive drivers really gets my blood boiling, and before I know it I’m mumbling obscenities under my breath. While music can help calm my nerves, like many people out there, I do suffer from a mild case of road rage.

Most novice drivers are a nervous mess before buckling in and taking the dreaded driving exam, but not this punk. He was busy installing hidden cameras into the dashboard. A new California cell-phone law will prohibit driving and mobile talking come July — so over-the-phone convos are technically still legal.

If you didn't see this person enter the vehicle at the beginning of the clip, then you'd think this was a kid with a learner's permit. Surely, any licensed driver could back a car out of a parking spot in no time flat. Not this dumbass.

What to do when you miss your exit on the freeway? Most folks would get off at the next exit and turn around, but not the driver in the following clip. This impatient dumbass decides to spin around and drive against oncoming traffic instead.

This "public improvement film" is a sketch from a comedy show, so we can't take it too seriously. Although it's mocking men's attitudes from the past, some dudes still have the same attitude now. To them I say: Watch your back when crossing the street, as my "pretty little mind" might not think to hit the brakes fast enough.

I'm sure you've all been one of those pissed off people, angrily clenching the steering wheel, cursing at the traffic that's making you late for work. Stress from driving can cause your blood pressure to rise and your emotions to get the best of you behind the wheel. People with such road rage honk their horn incessantly, yell at other drivers, tailgate cars in front of them, and weave in and out of different lanes, which can cause accidents.

We all know that driving can be incredibly dangerous. According to AAA, it's the number one cause of death among teenagers yet 61% of teenagers that were recently surveyed admitted to participating in risky behavior behind the wheel. Driving distracted, talking on your cell phone, putting on your make up, eating, doctoring up your coffee, kissing your boyfriend, gossiping with friends, laughing, etc.

We've seen parallel parking troubles before, but in that instance, after four whole minutes of trying and re-trying to park the car, the driver eventually gave up and drove away. Unfortunately, the person in the following video didn't have such good sense. To make matters worse, after settling into a less than parallel parking position, they also forgot to put the gear in park.
