Then I observed a man who was too nervous to teach his wife how to drive. Even after she had. learned from someone else and had pissed her driving test, he was reluctant to ride with her. When he finally gave in to her coaxing and let her behind the wheel, he fastened his seat belt tightly, sat with his back stiff, and straight; tapped hiS fingers on the dash and allowed his eyes to dart from one • side of the road tp the other. He made sure the 'trip was a short ong.
