"He micromanages my driving and there's bristling tension every time we take a journey together I love my partner, but I have never met a more annoying person to sit in the passenger seat. He micromanages me every time we take a journey together, commenting and butting in on everything, from using the car's controls (wipers, air con, radio etc) to what lane I'm in/should be in, warning me about other drivers (I can see!) and driving me insane."

I love my partner but sitting together in the car produces bristling tension because the partner micromanages every detail of driving. The passenger repeatedly comments on and interferes with the driver's actions, including adjusting wipers, air conditioning, radio, and advising on lane choice. The passenger issues warnings about other drivers that the driver can already see. The continual interjections escalate frustration and annoyance and make journeys fraught. The situation strains enjoyment of shared travel despite affection for the partner and causes the driver to feel driven insane by relentless control and commentary.
