I get in trouble all the time for making suggestions and "Helping Others Drive". A backseat driver you might say. I think it stems from driving a truck early in life and becoming a defensive driver. Always on alert for things that most people don't see. Part of the reason I gave up my motorcycle was the fact that I felt it has just become to unsafe to operate it anymore.
Are you a defensive driver or an offensive driver?

unsafe or you becoming a big tit?
Kinda both. lol
And, to avoid backseat driving, *I* usually drive!!!!
Fairly defensive. Today I was out in the field, training a new recruit. On westbound 199 at 820, an SUV merged across 2 lanes and very nearly sideswiped the passenger side door.
My recruit made an exclamation.
I interrupted the story I was telling, tapped the horn and slowed to allow the SUV to merge in front of me.
Then I resumed my story.
No road rage. No harm, no foul.
But, it doesn't mean I'm a pushover. It would be a very big mistake for someone else to, um, try to impose their road rage on me.
When I'm a passenger, I let the driver do their thing, unless there's an imminent danger.
