19 Car Moments That Will Bring A Grin To Your Face

Driving can be stressful: traffic, accidents, speed limits. However, there are certain moments in the car that just make for an awesome day, free from stress, even if only for a moment.

When Someone Passes You and Gets Caught at the Same Light

When a driver is in such a hurry they cut you off in traffic, karma has a way of catching up to those annoying drivers. Somehow they end up getting stuck at the same red light as you.

Open Road

A happy driving moment is when you are on a long stretch of road and can see for miles. When there are no other drivers in sight, the road is all yours. It doesn’t matter if you drive fast or slow, because at that moment you own the road.

Staring Out The Window

If you are lucky enough to be a passenger, there are some definite perks; you can idly watch trees go by until they turn into a blur as you zone out.

NOT Having to Drive

It is a good car day when your friend decides to pick an event that is within walking distance. You don't have to worry about gas money or parking. You can safely leave your car parked at home.

Free Parking

Free valet parking is a gift. You don't have to worry about shelling out the money to pay them; more money for the night!

Dog in the Wind

There is no better driving moment than when you see your dog's face in the car mirror. You can't help but laugh when you watch his skin ruffle back in the wind exposing all of their teeth at once.

That’s My Jam!

An awesome car moment is when your favorite song comes on the radio. You turn up the volume, bob your head, and sing at the top of your lungs. When friends are in the car too, it is like being at a concert.

Traffic in the Opposite Direction

By far one of the best car moments is when you look at the other side of the road, and cars are at a standstill for miles and miles. You are so relieved to be going in the opposite direction where the coast is clear.

All Green Lights

You can celebrate when you are lucky enough to hit all the green lights. This is especially true when you are anxious to get home after a long day of work. You feel like you just won the lottery.

Late Night Flashing Lights

There are advantages to driving late at night after the traffic lights are off. You can sail through the streets. Rather than the lights controlling you, you control the road.

Parking Space Showdown

Winning a showdown with another driver for a prime parking spot can be exhilarating. Your competitive side can't resist a challenge.

Right Place, Right Time

There is also something exciting about snagging a parking space right as someone is leaving. This is your lucky day

Designated Volunteers

Since friends don’t let friends drive drunk, take along someone who does not drink. Friends who volunteer to be the designated driver will give your adventure a happy, and safe, ending.

Vacation Travel

Your favorite driving moments may include vacation time, and rolling your windows down to feel the breeze in your hair. When you can sit in the passenger’s side and put your bare feet up on the dash, it is a good day.

Celebration Time

Getting good news and jamming in your car is a wonderful car moment. Having your friends rock-out with you is like having a party in your car.

When A Cop Passes You

A reason for celebration is when you see the police lights flashing in your rear view mirror, and as you start to slow down, the police rush past you. You sigh with relief as you realize the guy in front of you is going even faster than you were.

Parallel Parking Pro

Don't you love it when you successfully maneuver your car into a tight spot when you were not sure it would even fit? You have mastered parallel parking like a pro.

Friend Rolls Up Next To You

When you roll up to a stop light, look over, and see your best friend. There is nothing like coincidence to bring a smile to your face.

Working Together

Drivers become angry when they are in a long line of cars and one idiot driver tries to cut in. Fortunately, there is power in numbers. When no one lets him cut, you feel a special bond with the other drivers.
