In all honesty, a bit...I try to be a bit more "chill" with my wife in the car.

[Kevin_The_Clean1]

This is a known fact for most of us. When I'm with my parents or SO, I drive very mundane & almost like a grandpa would. LOL

[eluded]

The wife acts like an extended traction control system, far more intrusive and sensitive than the built-in system of a BMW. It reduces power prematurely, both in a straight line and in the corners.

Yeah I drive much faster by myself.

When I have my girlfriend in the car, I drive aggressive but nothing crazy. She loves my exhaust pops (thank you Milltek).

When I have my wife in the car, she likes the flaps closed because she hates the pops.

I don’t have kids.

My wife used to love the feeling of acceleration but now it spins her out and is uncomfortable for her. It forces me to drive no more than 1/3rd throttle in my M4 Comp Xdrive lol.

[JABCAT]

No. I have to reign my wife in with her X3MC & she had to sign a waiver attesting that she would not drive my Callaway Z06 or else my insurance rates on that would've been through the roof.

Have you tried driving with both of them in the car together? Curious about the results.

I live on an island that’s only 20 miles wide with 3m people. I barely get over 40mph and don’t really drive aggressively to begin with. If the wife is with me she does remind me of all the cars that are braking in front of me so I drive even slower. When she’s driving her own car, she’s the aggressive one lol.

[JMcLellan]

I keep to lower speeds vs by myself but I do accelerate and corner hard to see how she reacts. We were on a date night this past weekend and I had her giggling uncontrollably with some of my rowdy driving.

No, too old to waste good corners.

Wife (clutching the oh sh*t handle rounding a hard corner):
"Do you hear the tires SCREECHING?!?!?"

Me: "Nope. I hear them working."

If he were from Utah, would not think twice about the statement...but he is a Cali guy.

Yep-- the ZHP has them.

Looks like she's going to have to adapt.

Yes, I'm too busy finger blasting her to drive aggressively. Be sure to tell your friend.

I did, thanks.
He said some women have extremely low standards in selecting a partner.
YMMV

LOL definitely, I still don’t drive slow but not as aggressive. If it’s an M it’s to be driven like one 😂😶‍🌫️😂. But if I’m using the SUV or the daily beater car then I usually drive with them the same as if I am alone. So then the answer to your question becomes depends which car vehicle im driving!

I was reading that n then had to double back.. 🤣🤣🤣 🙏🏽

[maxwell smart]

When my wife is in the car I rip it hard. Right up to the speed limit , then I hit the brakes and set the cruise control.
