It states that in dangerous or unlawful driving, a passenger should warn the driver, quit the car if safe, or exit to avoid liability, while passive silence can imply acquiescence. The piece notes how such advice challenges earlier views on courtesy and hints at broader trends in back-seat driving and liability.
