Henceforth all mothers are required to obtain a back seat drivers license, barring which they are not allowed to comment while you are driving the car.

No, but seriously, they should pass this law. All in favor say 'Aye'.

Mothers are not a problem, compared with Italians.

I've had a (female) Italian back-seat driver literally get out of her seat, reach an arm over my shoulder, and grab the steering wheel, while shouting "hey, you turna lefta here, issa gooda shortcut..."

I didn't think of that. Thanks for the heads up. That's precisely what I'm going to do next time. :devil:
