It is sweet to see a couple in a car on their way to their destination. Sometimes I can see some conversation going on inside the car, and some argument too.

Often I see the passenger just keep quiet, sometimes sleeping and driver is driving alone going through massive traffic condition in the heart of Kuala Lumpur.

They can be a couple, parent and child or friends.

If only the passenger is tired and fell asleep or not in a good mood due to a bad day in office, that is okay.

Would not it will be better if both start a conversation during a long, pressurized, bored journey to their destination?

Let me list down the positive points:

• Both get to know each other more and well
• Kill the boredom and in-car awkward silent moment
• Improve relationship quality (boyfriend & girlfriend, husband & wife, parent and child, friends, BFFs, domestic, partners)
• Healthy conversation or argument (sort it out in limited space and time to avoid prolong issue)
• Prevent driver to fall asleep after a tiring day in a massive traffic congestion

Some negative points:

• When a conversation gone wrong, raise of tone and volume in a confined space within a vehicle which can cause ear bleeding, deafness, and death
• When no conversation going on, driver is tired after spent all the energy for better productivity during work, therefore, will fall asleep while driving, crash onto other cars, barrier, jump off the bridge, crash and die. And therefore, killing the passenger too.
• Discussion went bad, passenger got down the car and ran away, got adopted by alien, mat rempit, got robbed, raped, killed. News headline publish next day. Epic.

Seems like a positive action to have a conversation in a vehicle during a journey to your destination.

Do you?
