From Crusin --- "We need to set a higher standard for the backseat driver to follow. How well you remember what you learn and how well you put it into daily practice will not only ensure a safe and pleasant drive for everyone in the car, but will help pull the backseat driver's reputation out of the gutter and back on the road; where it belongs. "
