Everybody has rules for their car..what are yours?

I was riding with a female friend of mine and she stopped and we got some drive-thru at Burger King. The food came and we hit the road and she starts eating and she goes.."your foods gonna get cold.." I politely declined to eat in her car even though she was. Long story short it got me to thinking..

Am I the only person who imposes rules on my passengers? All my friends know that:

1) No smoking/food/drink.
2) Only the driver changes the radio station in my car.
3) Only I drive my car.

Re: Everybody has rules for their car..what are yours?

I will agree with everyone else so far. To add a couple to the list...

1: Don't slam the door / hood / hatch
2: Don't touch the paint to close the door

Possibly the most important and my biggest pet peeve..
3: PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE DO NOT KICK THE ROCKERS TO CLEAN YOUR SHOES!!!!!

Radio doesn't bother me too much, as long as it is good music.

Re: Everybody has rules for their car..what are yours?

You guys who say no changing the radio are crazy!

No one can mess with the radio if you take it out! LOL.



Yes, I took it out to save a few ounces. I've decided to just turn my Camaro into nearly a track only car. It will see the road again, just never over 5,000 miles per year, if I'll even hit 1,000.

I'm even going to pick myself up some of them fancy seats with no recline lever majigger thing. Hardcore stuff, eh?

Re: Everybody has rules for their car..what are yours?

1.) no smoking unless it's me and only if I really have too(hate smoking in my camaro)
2.) No putting on makeup in the car....never trust a girl to do this believe me it will go wrong
3.) No eating or drinking, water is ok if it's in a bottle
4.) The most important rule.....NO TOUCHING THE DASH PAD, for some strange reason anybody that rides in my iroc decides they need to grab the dash, and it drives me crazy, because my dash is in perfect shape

Re: Everybody has rules for their car..what are yours?

Hello All!!

I've only had eight different people, and one dog, once, in my car in 22 years of ownership, not including the odd service dude!!

All the rules above apply, especially the no food, no drink, no smoking, don't touch the radio, and no one else drives my car rules!!!

I tried to institute the "girls have to ride naked rule", but then I got to figuring that snail trails don't look good on black seats, so I nixed that idea!!



As long as the clothes are clean, your good to go!!!

Am I the only person who imposes rules on my passengers? All my friends know that:

1) No smoking/food/drink.
2) Only the driver changes the radio station in my car.
3) Only I drive my car.
I have similar rules myself. Here is my list of 31 do's and don't of riding in my vehicles. (Though one is specific to T-Top cars)

1) No smoking in, on, near, or around the car at any time. Chewing tabaco is also not allowed in the car.
2) No food or drinks. Sealed beverage containers are OK, so long as they are clean. Food may be carried in appropriate containers I deem safe, but never consumed in the vehicle.
3) I am the only person allowed to drive the car.
4) No feet on the dash.
5) Do not roll windows up or down. Only I get to do that.
6) No leaning against my car.
7) No sitting on my car.
8) No pets in my car.
9) No cargo that will scrape up my plastics/rip interior
10) No muddy/dirty/wet shoes/clothing in the car
11) Don't touch any of the controls aside from letting yourself out when we get where we are going and operating the seat belt.
12) No children
13) No child seats
14) Do NOT slam the doors when entering or exiting the vehicle.
15) No crappy drum solos to music on any surface within the vehicle at any time.
16) Don't leave your crap in my car.
17) Always return sun-visors to their upright position when exiting the vehicle.
18) Do not leave the seat belt twisted. Straighten the damn thing out when you take it off.
19) Do not just let go of the seat belt and allow it to slam into random parts of the interior when you get out.
20) Never, under any circumstances mess with the T-Top release lever.
21) No one rides in the back seats. Ever.
22) Do not leave bodily fluids inside my vehicle. This includes your snot, vomit, spit, or "other" fluids.
23) If you got something passed me, and you make a mess in the car, YOU will be cleaning it up until I am satisfied with the results.
24) You do not invite your friends to ride in my car with you, or instead of you at any point, for any reason.
25) You may not volunteer me to give rides to anyone.
26) I like to park far away from other human beings and their cars. You are not allowed to bitch about the walking distance when I do this.
27) Passengers are not allowed to bitch about my driving.
28) Passengers may not bring anything illegal into the vehicle at any point, for any reason.
29) No fat chicks.
30) I will not modify any vehicle rule at any time for any reason so do not ask me to. You are wasting your time trying.
31) No rule applies to me unless I wish it to. (Which 95% of the time I follow these rules without exception.)

Re: Everybody has rules for their car..what are yours?

I am so in on this I can't stand passengers!

1. No one under any circumstances drives her other than me or my wife... I don't care if I am bleeding out of my eyes!

2. Don't touch my radio!!!! Wife only exception to this rule... Why because she's my wife.

3. If you even think about lighting a cigarette near or in her I will break your fingers!

4. Keep you grubby mits off the paint.. There are door handles for a reason.

5. Clean your shoes off before you get in the car.

6. Pets are ok as long as they are clean.. Pretty much just covers my dog.

7. KEEP YOUR FEET OFF MY DASH!!!!!!!!!

8. Keep your rear off the hood. They dent moron...

9. No eating or drinking in the back seat... I swear someone always spills in the back seat...

10. keeps your shoes off the back of the seats...

I am sure I have at least 10 more but these are the main ones.

Only one I haven't heard is no sick people. Had a friend (double)sneeze a nasty mist of molecules all over my passenger window.

I almost crashed I was so startled...almost.

Re: Everybody has rules for their car..what are yours?

Don't slam the door, no food or drink, don't touch the window switches, and DON'T under any circumstances adjust the drivers seat..

And from above..

2.) No putting on makeup in the car....never trust a girl to do this believe me it will go wrong.. It does go wrong...

Re: Everybody has rules for their car..what are yours?

I like the vast majority of these rules. Strange in it's own way, but I prefer to drive alone rather than having a passenger.

Re: Everybody has rules for their car..what are yours?

I saw these earlier in the thread and decided to modify them for my cars but they are pretty spot on.

1) No smoking in, on, near, or around the car at any time. Chewing tobacco is also not allowed in the car.
2) No food or drinks. Sealed beverage containers are OK, so long as they are clean. Food may be carried in appropriate containers I deem safe, but never consumed in the vehicle.
3) I am the only person allowed to drive the car. DO NOT ASK because you don't have the skills to drive one or you would of bought one (two) like I did.
4) No feet on the dash. This is cause for immediate ejection and forfeiture of future riding privileges.
5) Do not roll windows up or down. Only I get to do that.
6) No leaning against my car.
7) No sitting on my car.
8) No pets in my car unless it is my dog who knows the rules.
9) No cargo that will scrape up my plastics/rip interior. I don't haul extra large items like ladders or boxes, even if it's Xmas time. Ship it or rent a truck.
10) No muddy/dirty/wet shoes/clothing in the car-EVER.
11) Don't touch any of the controls aside from letting yourself out when we get where we are going and operating the seat belt. I adjust all heat/air controls. Touching or adjusting my DVD/Radio controls is cause for immediate ejection at the point you touch the head unit. All blown speakers and amps must be paid for immediately.
12) No children except my granddaughter who is exempt from all rules because she is the diva of all divas.
13) No child seats except my granddaughters.
14) Do NOT slam the doors when entering or exiting the vehicle.
15) No crappy drum solos to music on any surface within the vehicle at any time.
16) Don't leave your crap in my car. Everything that enters the car exits the car upon destination arrival.
17) Always return sun-visors to their upright position when exiting the vehicle.
18) Do not leave the seat belt twisted. Straighten the damn thing out when you take it off.
19) Do not just let go of the seat belt and allow it to slam into random parts of the interior when you get out.
20) Never, under any circumstances mess with the convertible release lever.
21) No one rides in the back seats. Ever. This is a two seater for all intent and purposes.
22) Do not leave bodily fluids inside my vehicle. This includes your snot, vomit, spit, or "other" fluids.
23) If you got something passed me, and you make a mess in the car, YOU will be cleaning it up until I am satisfied with the results.
24) You do not invite your friends to ride in my car with you, or instead of you at any point, for any reason. I am the only one that chooses who rides in my car.
25) You may not volunteer me to give rides to anyone. My car is not a taxi.
26) I like to park far away from other human beings and their cars. You are not allowed to bitch about the walking distance when I do this.
27) Passengers are not allowed to bitch about my driving or give directions/how to drive lessons.
28) Passengers may not bring anything illegal into the vehicle at any point, for any reason. I have no desire to go to jail.
29) No fat chicks. I don't need the extra weight.
30) I will not modify any vehicle rule at any time for any reason so do not ask me to. You are wasting your time trying.
31) No rule applies to me unless I wish it to. (Which 95% of the time I follow these rules without exception.

Re: Everybody has rules for their car..what are yours?

Pretty much all the above rules apply to mine, but one I haven't seen is DO NOT PUT YOUR FINGERS ON ANY OF MY GLASS, INSIDE OR OUTSIDE. My wife knows this and does it when she's feeling frisky and wants to mess with me. The only ones aloud to mess with my radio and not get put out on the side of the road is my daughters.

Just clean up after yourself, and don't let the doors bounce against the hinges when you open the door and were all good

Re: Everybody has rules for their car..what are yours?

no smoking
dont bitch about the music being too loud
do not open my map pocket repeatedly because the sound of velcro entertains you
dont rest your arm on the new window sweeps thats what armrests are for
i dont change my seating position so u better be short if you sit behind me
no knees in my seat
dont lay your seat all the way down ur not going to sleep
dont mess with the ashtray in the back yea i know its random dont f*ck with it
dont let the seatbelt snap back
im ok with food only if u buy me some also
dont b*tch about "theres no cup holder"
no i dont have a/c so ur out of luck (if ur a woman u cant take ur shirt off)
yea it smells like gas if it makes your head hurt then get out
that about covers it

My biggest rule when people ride in my car is no pointing to cars and saying "That thing could smoke you". So annoying

Is that an option on these cars? Mine came with some, awesome I know. Oh and pun 95% intended.

But seriously nothing crazy it's just a car ride, you can adjust the seats (though no one does) change the song (if it's good) or mess with the a/c (it still won't work no matter how hard you try) I don't really care.

1 rule though: You are the cupholder

Re: Everybody has rules for their car..what are yours?

No sitting, leaning, scratching, touching, etc to the exterior/paint (unless it's to open the door).

I've had multiple cars with big scratches because some friend wants to lean his *** up against my car with keys in it, or lean their forearms on the trunk only to end up with a big watch band gash, I've also had dogs paw the paint before and end up with deep scratches. No one go near the paint and we'll all be happy.

Also please don't throw up, it's not a rule but be courteous and open the door or roll down the window or puke in your shirt or just swallow it or hold it in your hands or rub it in your hair I dont care, just anywhere but my carpet or seats.

Re: Everybody has rules for their car..what are yours?

I'm fairly lax about what goes in my car, smoking is ok (no crack tho), as well as eating drinking (non alcoholic) etc. However, if you spill/burn anything I shall cave your face in. Some drugs are ok, but only if I get some. NO YELLING, jesus I people who yell. And if you touch the radio you might as well start tying your noose.

Hello RU1NER!!

You must have a few RPO's that you can't decipher, maybe one is for those snail trails that came with your car???



100% pun intended!!

Re: Everybody has rules for their car..what are yours?

ok here is my list of rules for my car. every single one was made after some one did one of these things and almost all of them are ignored by people i cant kick out (my parents)

-DO NOT try to "open" the t-tops (its not a dam sun roof )
-No smoking (car was never smoked in.then my mom smoked in it for a month and now my headliner sags)
-eating and drink are fine but if u spill u die
-no pushing on the dash to help your self get out the car ( dont know y but people always do)
-no using the car as a cargo van (carpet padding from dash to thetip of the back. took for ever to get all the fuzz out and bent my privacy shade)
-when u open the door dont hit anything. (for obvious resons)
-but u close the door make sure the seat belt buckle isnt in the door jam (happens way to much)
-every thing u bring in the car u take when u leave ( for some resone people love to leave there coats in my car)
-no driving my car. (bad things happen when u cant haddle the power of a stock lo3 )
-no leaning on the car (for obvious resons)
-no closing the door by the window (for obvious resons)

and thats about it. but when i first got my car i had no rules every single one of my rules if from it happing more then once

1) Sit down,
2) Shut Up ( like I could hear you anyway),
3) and hold on.

Nothing else is permitted within the confines or within a 20 foot radius of my car.
