When your GPS goes off the rails because you didn't do what it told you, and it just keeps whining about how it's 'recalculating' like it's your ex.

'Turn here... turn here... I'm not even near here!'

'Recalculating... I'm not even lost, it's just sad.'

That annoying passenger who thinks they're a race car driver just because they've driven to the store once.

'I took this route three times, and you're still confused.'

'You're making me yell directions, and I'm not even tired!'

Short for backseat driver. It’s when someone takes over your driving and gives you directions like they’re the boss.

'I'm the backseat driver, you're just the person who gets lost.'

'That one time we got lost, it ruined my whole life.'
