|  Are you a silent or chatty driver
There seem to be 2 types of driver. - The silent type that concentrates on the road.
- The chatty type that engages in non stop chatter.
Which would you say you were and does the other type wind you up?
What about passengers - do you prefer silent or chatty passengers?

Nice one  I almost never ever talk. My radio is silent except for the traffic news. I concentrate on the road, and taking up challenges | |

| Re: Are you a silent or chatty driver
If I'm on my own or with someone, I mainly slag off every one elses driving. Its terrible, I know.
I do hold a conversation but, I'm a bit detached from it, especially if I have more than one other person in the car, focusing more on criticizing other drivers and the road itself. Haha | |

| Re: Are you a silent or chatty driver
I just can't manage a conversation so I'm definately a silent driver. My mother in law on the other hand will give a non stop commentry "oh look at those sheep in that field, looks like angoranrawwizzy wool, I'd should make a jumper soon, did you know that Kangaroos....."
She thinks I'm in a mood cos I'm silent ,when in reality I'm in a mood because she won't be silent!  ||

| Re: Are you a silent or chatty driver
I tend to drive quietly as I'm used to driving alone. But if I have a passenger that wants to talk then I can quite easily talk and drive. I don't really mind if I have a chatty passenger, as long as it isn't too much!

Is this a boy/girl thing then. The boys are mainly silent and the girls are mainly chatty? (With exceptions of course  )

Hayley - you're not! never!
As a bloke I am able to witter away throughout the course of a journey quite happily. Occasionally I fall silent if something needs some extra special attention outside the car.
I'm quite happy to chat away during a 300 mile journey even with no passengers at all!
Err, that's just me and all my other personalities getting a chance to convene. |

| Re: Are you a silent or chatty driver
I tend to go either way LOL, just realised how that sounds 
My passengers tend to be chatty which I will join in, unless ' road conditions take precedence, then I shut up & concentrate on what I'm doing ( or should that be supposed to be doing lol )
Have to admit I'm one of the first to comment on others ' bad driving '  , but I think I do it to alert myself to what they're doing!
