Being a front seat passenger in a car driven by a friend of mine. by Michael Mcmanus

Brillaint idea...we've all been there.

Thanks Lewis. It's sadly true.

Don't get in he should be banned

That's true Dennis but I haven't got the courage. You know how everyone thinks they're the best driver. My life is on a fine thread Dennis.

😳😱

Absolutely love this Michael. Such a terrified expression on 'your' face. We all know that feeling and prefer to drive ourselves if possible don't we? Funnily enough, if going a long distance by motorway, I always sit in the back of the car behind the driver seat so I can't see the traffic or the speed travelled. In the front, I sit with my foot pressed on an imaginary brake pedal. I hate motorways and never drive on them myself. People must think I have a chauffeur ..LOL I have a sketch of sitting in the back of the car and will post it if I can find it :)

This so true, Michael. Great expression 😱

Lol.....gosh Michael, this expression looks very familiar! When I’m driving I think......

Does your friend know you feel like this?

Thank you all ladies. I know exactly what you mean Louise. Things are going faster these days and there're are too many of them. Look forward to your post. He does have an idea Patty and admits his driving isn't good.

This made me laugh Michael, we all know the feeling!

Pleased you laughed Margaret.

Brilliant Mike , you should see me in a plane coming into land.

Excellent Michael!!

Thanks Sylvia and Satu. We put ourselves through all sorts of stress with transport Sylvia - we have to get there.

That is such a wonderfully expressive drawing. The fear is certainly there!

Thanks Diana.

This is another quite disturbing image despite the title which is humorous. This is not a criticism, far from it. Images like this and especially the one of the domestic abuser have great power.

The title and image are a mismatch and im surprised that some find it funny just because of the title. The image itself tells a different story. Its quite profound. An iconic image of terror is what im seeing. Its brilliant, bold and very memorable. Others dont seem to see it. They just find it funny.

I think you underestimate the intellect of the audience and the artist Michael. Your interpretation is admissible, as is everyone else's because art is entirely subjective.

OMG!

I know Maureen. I keep creating nightmares.
