Games you play while driving?

[Jacob]

When Im driving/ Passengering, and there's nothing on the radio well start playing car related driving games.

 

EXAMPLE!: Whilist passengering I try to guess what kind of car is in front of us from 100ft away (need to be dark).

Do you mean the games you play with yourself or with the other people in the car?

 

Most of the time when we go for a driving holiday, I just end up arguing with my sister :p

When on long driving trips you should prepare a list full of things and objects and try to see who can find the most.

 

eg. LamboGuy sees a Porsche Cayenne and crosses it off, but Car Freak does not see it. Car Freak sees an Apache Helicopter raining terror and crosses it off, but oddly LamboGuy does not notice.

Probally with other people: Another example! Red car Blue car. Theres 2 people that play this game. One that spots red cars and one that spots blue cars the person with the most cars when you get to where your going wins..

Or, a variation on that game is count how many cars that are oncoming, and then when you see a red one, that's it. Next person's turn. Winner is the player with highest count.

I think James May mentioned this one in his book entitled "Notes From The Hard Shoulder"... Two players look for crappy cars, and when one of the players spots one, they say to the other one: "Look, it's your car!". When the trip ends, the player with the worst car loses. :p

If i'm with friends on the autobahn, we always try race 5-Series/A6's/E-Class's/S-Classes/ML/Q7 etc and win :lol:

Once, my dad tested the top speed of the Corolla, in 8 AM on a clear highway. Actually, he's done that several times, but that one ended up at 182 km/h. Guess there was a lot of wind, pusing us forward. :D

 

Another game I play is to count how many cars I can count, with the reg plate of my city. But that's only when we travel to another city, otherwise, it would be impossible to count them all cars in Varna. :D

Both people choose a colour of a car, e.g Yellow.

 

First person to see a yellow car gets to punch the other person on the top part of their arm. You can change the colour after the first punch or keep using the same colour for the entire journey or until someone cries.

 

Does get quite violent, well, did in my case. It also annoys the hell out of whoever's driving.

Passenger - I put my iPod on and go to sleep if it's a long journey, if it's a short one I just listen to music.

 

Driver - Well I'm driving no time for games!

 

Boring I know :)

We do that with Beetles if you see a beetle you punch them. Or doubles, This is fun to play on a school bus... you start off with one punch then the other person doubles it so they get 2 punchs then the next person punchs you 4 times and so on, Me and my friend got to 120 :nuts: We could barely walk off the bus, are legs were so numb from punching eachother lol.

[KoenigseggBG]

are legs were so numb for punching eachother lol.

 

You PUNCH with LEGS? :oook:

[RedCarDriver]

While I'm driving? How about the "don't get in an accident" game? xD

 

My family used to play the "license plate game", but by the end we had added so many house rules to it that it made very little sense.

 

EDIT: Also, you all lost the game.

If my caluclations are correct I know were you got that from..

 

No Nick we dont punch with our legs. We punch eachother IN the legs.

I gues what make and model car I'm by

A few years back, I used to count Subaru Outback Wagons (half a point for sedans). Subaru is basically the unofficial state brand in my state - I only know a few people who don't have one, and most of them are from New Jersey or other areas - and I was trying to convince my parents to upgrade from their old Legacy. In one 45-minute trip, I counted over 80 Outbacks alone. :)

 

On more recent trips (on my permit I can't drive out-of-state), I play the "Get Ready to Take a Picture of the First Aston/Lotus/Porsche I see" game. :p
