Personally, I find it endlessly frustrating and even terrifying to be in the passenger seat with a driver who jumps in the car and immediately goes.. Then worries about Seatbelts/Radio/AC/Mirrors/Plugging in Phone/etc etc while driving.

Motherfuckers who turn their head to talk to others in the car while they're driving. Keep your eyes on the road, dumbass.

In movies sometimes they do it for freakishly long, obviously because the car isn't actually driving or because it's sitting on a trailer. It's become a trope, some films parody it.

Lloyd's first conversation with Mary in Dumb and Dumber. Should be required viewing in driving schools.

Yeah and it still gets me a bit nervous seeing those scenes, even though I know it's fictional.
