Sounds like you and I are both feeling about ready to throw in the towel
When it comes to driving my rule is no-one gets to tell the driver what to do unless there's a 10-ton truck bearing down on you that he/she hasn't noticed. You cannot concentrate properly to execute maneuvres and at the same time justify what you are doing. That is just plain dangerous - if she is nervous of the traffic she needs to be even more nervous of what she is doing to your concentration. My H is a horrible driver (I'm not the only one that thinks so) but I never say a thing, if I need to I just look out the side window instead of the front.
In answer to a question you put to me a while back (not sure why) we pay 16p per kilowatt/hour for natural gas. 16p is about 25 cents I think? I spotted this at the top of the gas bill when it came last week and thought of you
