Sneezing When Driving
Jul 5th, 2007 by Jeremy
Did you know that it is physiologically impossible for your to keep your eyes open when you sneeze? I remember learning this years ago and trying my best to prove that little fact wrong. Go ahead, try it. I tried and tried to no avail. Your body is simply wired to protect your eyes by closing them when you sneeze.
Now that wouldn’t seem like a big deal normally, and it isn’t; but, when driving this can be a hazard when the sneeze comes at the most inopportune time. Of course, is there ever really an opportune time for a sneeze? Your eyes close for that split second right when that moron starts to cut you off and you have even less time to react. How about when the brake lights fire up in front of you with a sudden stop and that sneeze takes away your timing so you are forced to slam on your brakes to avoid an all to sudden meeting with the bumper in front of you.
Yep, sneezing when driving is definitely something that’s gotta go.
The worst part about sneezing while driving is I usually dump my beer and drop my mascara wand too! :) KIDDING!!!!! ;)
