i've noticed that a lot of young males (i'm talking 18 to late 20s maybe) think it's "cool" to sit in the front seat with the seatback really reclined (like 45 degrees!). their backs aren't even touching the seatback. they have to hold themselves up by holding the steering wheel. what's up with that??!! are they trying to go for the "laid back" look? to make things worse, to compensate for the extra disance between their backs and the seatback, they slide the seat forward more, positioning themselves closer to the steering wheel. i gave a co-worker friend of mine (who was in his mid-20s at the time) a hard time (jokingly hard time) about it when i had to ride in his car once and noticed his seatback at about a 45 degree angle... i asked him if he really thought he was cool sitting that way. he got really defensive and insisted it was more "comfortable" that way... yeah, right. i can only imagine the danger of submarining that that poses!!! not to mention that in a rear-end collision, your head protection is really compromised.
and living in the city now, i see this almost ALL the time.
do any of your DH's have the tendency to sit this way?
sometimes i just don't get young men... i mean, i was one once (not THAT long ago ) but i never had the desire to put myself in an unsafe and uncomfortable position just to look "cool".
