Jesus take the wheel.
You know what they say: two heads are better than one — unless one of those heads belongs to your legally-blind grandmother, and the other is screaming directions from the back seat – welcome to Backseat Drivers.
A Driving Game For People Who Shouldn’t Be Driving (Or Friends)
Here’s the setup: you and a friend (or, well, grandma) hop into a car that’s been held together with duct tape, spite, and possibly some old bubblegum. One of you plays the driver — your sweet, fearless Gramma — who unfortunately can’t see a single thing over the dashboard. The other player, cast as her increasingly traumatized grandchild, has a full view of the road... from the back seat... with no control over the vehicle. What could possibly go wrong?
Your job, as the backseat passenger, is to guide Gramma with clear, calm, precise instructions. What you’ll actually do is shout “LEFT!!” repeatedly while she confidently drives into a lake. Or a mountain. Or a military checkpoint. Who’s to say?
Your cross-country death march includes all the usual detours: icy peaks, collapsing subway tunnels, highways with the structural integrity of a breadstick, and — of course — at least one top-secret government lab that definitely didn’t sign off on you driving through it. Oh, did I mention that your car is actually falling apart and needs to be fixed on the trip?
And through it all, Backseat Drivers maintains a strong emotional core: namely, the shared psychological trauma of two people who now understand each other far too well — and resent each other just enough to make the next corner spicy. So whether you're looking to strengthen your friendships, destroy them completely, or just scream at someone you love while flying backwards off a cliff in a burning sedan, Backseat Drivers will get you there. Eventually.
