This thread is 6 years old!!!
as a driver, if you are alone, please do not sit behind me. Sit on the passenger side. When a single passenger sits behind me, I get worried that they are the one that is finally going to put the bullet in my brain.
Back left. Driver always protects his side first.
Who sits in the back middle as the only passenger!![yell]()
LMAO
That's the place I used to sit as the only child. That's where all the parents' love is. We all know this.
Manspreading is at its best in the middle. Maximum airflow.
not comfortable though.
CENTER. Best place to converse with the driver. It's rude everywhere else. Just don't be the dude to sit upfront on top of the drivers' stuff.
I mean, seriously. center is best. assuming there is no awkward mound and there is seatbelt.
Come on! Its the safest seat!
but your a tool if you sit there
You're* :)
Always back right, always. #TeamBackRight
Right!
Depends what side of the street the driver picks me up on.
yes, good point.
Then it's the right. unless I guess you are in Manhattan.
I am a driver. Please sit in the back. No driver thinks sitting in front is okay. I don't mean to sound rude, but that's sort of our space. I keep it relatively clean, so if a large group needs the space, sure. but if you don't, just sit in the back. still plenty of opp to chat.
Back Left
Ugh, why do people sit right behind the driver in an empty car, its freaky! Im always half paranoid you sat there to pull a knife on me.
because in case the driver attacks, you'd have the best position to fight back. Dog eat dog world.
i don't think that's the right expression, but i get what you mean. wait, no i don't. do drivers attack passengers.

yep
FRONT. To be honest, I used to think I was supposed to sit in the front for the longest time. You know... like a friend picking me up to go somewhere.
Then as I started taking more rides, I had this weird thing going where I sat in the front if I didn't mind talking and I sat in the back if i didn't feel like talking. Only recently I found out that most people sit in the back. I know. I was super weird, apparently.
This is exactly me about choosing where to sit depending on whether or not I want to talk.
right
For us taller people, I like the frount especially in the smaller cars
seeing how I am 5 foot 2 inches I would have never thought of this angle... Do drivers care if you get in the front?
Valid argument. I do the same. However, I already know the proper answer to this, and you are supposed to sit in the back. Do you know how I know? Half the time there is driver's crap all over the front seat.
This isn't a judgement on the driver. I mean they spend hours in the car every day.
