Why does this ad with the Mom driving and the Dad riding shotgun bother me?

Don't know really why this commercial grinds me more than all the other "socially conscience" commercials out there. It really shouldn't, nice family enjoying their child laughing as they drive.
I feel bad for the male actor having to appear very beta-like in his big commercial.

Obligatory answer of “ because you touch yourself”.

Easy explanation, dad is on paper for a recent DUI and has a suspended driver's license.

Don't know. I love riding shotgun. Especially on long road trips.

I drive my car. My wife drives her car. We swap out every few hours on road trips. If you can't handle being in the car when your wife drives, you're insecure as frick.

Anyone who thinks that it’s a beta move to have the wife drive is an insecure idiot.

Also my girlfriend really likes driving, especially sports cars so I let her drive my car sometimes because I know she enjoys it.

The irony is OP probably refers to people as snowflakes

This is the biggest baby back bitch snowflake thread I've ever seen

Who the hell gets triggered by this?

Better chance of surviving a police encounter if he’s in the passenger seat.

Probably because you have an insecurity problem and a small wiener

My wife is an extremely angry driver. She yells and flips everyone off the whole drive. IOW, like a Guatamalan cab driver.

I drive like I have 15 warrants

I enjoy the ride, listen to music and rarely get bothered. When I hear friends talking about road rage in this town, I figure it's a character flaw.
