Difference in driving between you and your SO

Neither of us have had a ticket for decades or an accident, although prior to this, I have been the most prone. We frequently travel the same routes, sharing driving duties.
When she drives...
(1). Gets pissed off at cars/trucks that enter or even attempt to enter the road in front of her. "Don't do it a-hole". "Would you look at this SOB, pulled out and now he is going 40mph". Every time it is a constant DRAMA.
(2). Rides the bumper of any car in front of her on a two lane road. This drives me nuts. Speeds up, taps brakes, speeds up, taps brakes.
(3). Hates roundabouts.
She would make a great truck driver.
When I drive she frequently takes a nap. ETA on the same stretch of road...+/- 5 minutes on a 100 mile trip.

I'm an excellent driver. I've been driving for 26 years legally and never had an at fault accident. I've had a few tickets here and there.
My wife is a nightmare driver. I've considered just paying for her to Uber everywhere.

Before long drives, my wife always offers to drive half. 2 minutes later she's asleep.

I drive Sierra with a Salt Life sticker, she drives a Tahoe with a 30A sticker.

My wife likes to see how close she can get to a cars bumper while passing.

He is much more conservative, makes me crazy. We have a traffic circle, but it is also a crosswalk for bicyclists and pedestrians, which there are a LOT of. He hates it. I am much more aggressive.

I drive pretty fast everywhere, no accidents or tickets.Wife is cautious driver, wrecks and speeding tickets are a thing. Oh well, not divorced, I guess...

Our garbage can hates garbage day. It's in the same spot every monday yet she continues to back over it. She has red and yellow stripes down her vehicle from the guard post at the bank and walgreens.

Mine took out the awning at daycare years ago. She's backed into the garage door and the damn house too.
In the 14 years we've been together I'd estimate - 8 tickets, 4 red light camera tickets, 5-6 at-fault accidents.

She's not smooth on the accelerator or brake. It's nauseating.

Thank God she's an insurance agent or she'd be uninsurable

so you married a terrible driver. Is this a subtle brag?
I'm a big believer that driving ability is directly correlated with ones cognitive processing speed.
Not intelligence per se, but the ability to process.
My wife is a great driver. My wife is pretty much great at everything. We are both 10s.

I’m easier on the brakes, tires, and on gas mileage than any SO I’ve ever had
Posted on 1/12/19 at 4:48 pm to nuwaydawg
I'm not really sure how she drives because I'm the man. I drive

Me
Practically perfect driver in every way
Her (no pics)
Acceptable overall, doesn’t like to use the Cruise Control but does OK at maintaining a consistent speed. Will go 75 mph on the Interstate. Has liked operating a car at night. Long trips always asks to drive and I always decline, she then will read or sleep and I can rub one, two, or three out...
