Shut up.

Do not open the passenger window, it is broken.
Do not put hands, legs or your head out of the sunroof.
If you change my song you will walk home.
Don't tell me I'm driving too fast or too slow.
Wear a seatbelt.

Wow, I'm not sure if I'm soft or just alot damn nicer than the rest of you. The only "rules" I have are very much contextual depending on who is in the car.
-Seatbelts, if only because the beeping on the dashboard annoys the fuck out of me.
-If there are non smokers in the car, be considerate, if the smokers outnumber the non smokers (unless the non smoker is my mum at which point a no smoking law applies at all times) smoke all you want but make sure the windows are down.
-I never have the heating or air con turned on, I much prefer the window down, if you request it however set the controls to your side how you wish and I shall turn my side off.
- Sleeping, eating, drinking are all fine as long as you clear up after yourself.
- I won't ask for petrol money if you're going the same place I'm going anyway, unless I have to make a special detour for you. (This mainly applies to people who sometimes need a lift too or from work, if they live in the direction I'm heading I don't care about money)
- Music: I understand my tastes are not to everyones liking however I have over 40 CDs in the car, find something you like or can tolerate and we'll put that on. If you dislike all my music then we shall listen to Radio 1. No other Radio station is permitted with the exception of 5 Live on a Saturday afternoon if you wish to listen to the football scores.
I understand it's my car but there's no point being a dick to people because of it, I try and be as accomodating as I can.

Seat belts are to be worn at all times, no smoking, and any music is allowed except rap or country, no exceptions.
1. Any person who asks, "Are we there yet?" will be shot.
2. The driver decides what station to listen to.

1. Seatbelts, I don't want to get busted
2. Lock the door behind you, I have no central locking
3. No feet on the dashboard, shoes are filthy
4. No open drinks, no mess no fuss
5. All rubbish has to be put in a bag or something, again no mess etc
6. Don't write/draw in the condensation, I have to clean your grubby finger prints of the damn window!
I don't care about people eating or smoking though, so long as the ashtray is used and you brush crumbs on the floor.
I also don't have any rules regarding music, since the radio doesn't work and all the cds in the car are mine.

It's quite simple, for me.
-No open alcohol or drugs in the car. A principle rule in my car. First offense, you walk home. Second offense, I never drive you anywhere again.
-Seatbelts are there for a reason, I don't give a damn about your philosophy about them, your in my car, wear the damn thing. Punishment is the same as the alcohol or drugs.
-If you yell "SHOTGUN!", you must find my car in order to get the front seat. Failure to find my car means you will ride in the backseat/trunk the rest of the trip.
-Music is flexible so long as I agree with it.

At to that no smoking and if you make a mess in my car clean it up.Just_A_Glitch said:
Plus if I always appreciate a little gas money, especially since we are pushing 4 bucks a gallon
Wear a seatbelt. If you refuse, you walk.
Feel free to put on music, but not too loud. Mostly anything flies, but if there is something I don't like, you'll be asked to change it or turn it off.
No backseat driving/telling me how to drive unless there's a good reason for it and you know what you're doing.
Don't leave a mess or break anything. If you do, you clean it or fix/pay for it.
If we're going a long distance, keep in mind that my car doesn't run on 'thanks.' I'll ask how much and if you can afford to beforehand, of course.
No smoking, no alcohol.
Good times.

Pretty much this except with the added addendum with regard to food, that if it is crumbly, flakey or dripping oil, grease or sauces it shall not be eaten.IrishBerserker said:
Well lets see...
-I pick who gets the passenger seat (subject to change based on bribe)
-While I'm driver I get to swear as much as I damn well please, if you complain you get the boot.
-I reserve the right to rip the E-brake whenever I feel like it.
-I only allow people I like in my car. If I don't like your friend then tuff, you guys can walk.
-No booze, smoking, or drugs.
-If you sneak drugs into my car and I find out it's either getting thrown away or you can walk.
-Never complain about my driving.
-Seat belts
-Don't touch my radio.
-If you touch me I will hit you.
-Men must remain dressed at all times.
-I don't care if my car is beat up, I love it and anyone that insults her can never enter again.
-Windows will remain locked at all times unless your going to vomit.
-I do not expect gas money, but depending on who you are, I will either charge you artwork or food for stuff thats really out of the way. (same rates apply for late night pick ups)
That about sums it up.

1: seatbelts
2: no drinking, booze or other stuff that can get mashed into the seat covers
3: no opening doors while the car is moving, or you will be closing it from the outside
4: not asking for crazy stunts, there are other people who are passengers too, and they probably don't want to arrive as a corpse.

I don't have a car, but the rules that my grandfather imposes are:
1. Wear a seatbelt
2. No drinking booze
3. Don't eat fast food in the car, because it stinks the car out and it takes weeks to get the smell out of the carpet.
4. Don't litter in the car
5. Don't kick the driver's seat. If we ever kick the drivers seat he has threatened to throw us out of the car and we walk to our destination, or he will turn around and go home.
I can't argue with these rules, they are all sensible.

Well, I don't have my own car but should I ever need to drive people somewhere using my father's I too have some regulations, mainly the same as mentioned before.
- the person driving decides the music, though I am quite generous most of the time when my parents are in the car
- cigarettes shall never leave your pockets or bags lest you want them out the window (it's a fairly new car and none of the family members smoke so there won't be an exception for you)
- drunken people may only enter with measurements taken and maybe a person to watch over them
- seatbelts as it should be obvious
- shotgun rules apply only without parents and only with the codeword "Chewie"
- dancing and singing to nerdy music is no option but the law
