Alright... who's driving?

This is a question for those who are/have been in a relationship. Who does the driving?
Used to be no-one touched my car except me. However my last relationship was a real battle, my former gf loved to drive & it was always a battle between taking my car or hers, yeah they were both manual. I'll give her credit though, she had a go with my old UC despite the dodgy clutch & lack of power steering.
How she treated the work cars  That's another story

I used to do all the driving...
that was of course until my g/f finally got her license after i taught her, and she loves driving as much as i do 
so now its always a compromise..she drives there i drive back sort of thing...
tho she won't drive my car at the mo coz its driving like a pos and takes skill to get it away from the kerb!

We go in my car, I drive..
We go in Jesse's car, she drives. (unless like joyride she's really tired).
Simple 
We have been known to take her car a little bit more often when there may be beers involved at the destination though

WERD to that, my ex used to love driving my prelude but when I never would let her except when it came time for teh drinky winky then she could drive it as much as she liked and she would actually "thank" me for letting her drive my car

if where going somewhere and there is alcohol (pretty much all the time) then she drives .
But if it's down to the shops or whatever then i drive.
Altho seen as though i drink frequently she drives alot and we take her car.
There is a very select few that can drive my car.

with my girlfriend and myself, she'll drive her car if we are going to get a few drinks (she ain't much of a drinker, unlike me ) and most other times we go in my sprinter with me driving.
I don't trust anyone driving my sprinter. since it's got a sports clutch, it can be quite hard for people to adjust. hell, it took me a while before i could master it

I don't really mind who drives, I'm usually a fairly relaxed passenger. And I'm not too stingy about letting others drive the MR2, it's a toy and is meant to be played with.
...but let anyone touch the supra? Over my dead body.

there are 3 other people in the world I trust driving my car. one of them is female (my mum of all people!).
I've got nothing against being a passenger.... never really scared about car crashes.... no fear

I've always driven until I lost my license. 12mths, had it back 1 month, gone again (voluntary surrender until after courts case). Makes me a VERY nervous passenger, but the reward is she tells me my new car can be of my choice (like it was an issue anyway) So bring on the new wagon

my gf only drives when i'm drinking. so yeah she does most of the driving. but she only drives auto so she couldnt drive my cars even if i let her. i gave her a few lessons on manual in my old laser (coz i didnt give a fuk if she crashed it), and since i got the 162 shes asked me a few times and i'm like "ummm, no"
