Am I the only one that assumes the wife was driving? OP was asleep on the passenger seat, was woken by their wife for the milestone and took the picture?

[–] maltasoron@sopuli.xyz 51 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yeah, it's literally in the title.

[–] stebo02@sopuli.xyz 15 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (6 children)

which means she took this picture while driving 110 km/h

[–] Jakeuphigh@lemm.ee 11 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Literally no, read it again: OP

  • Was asleep
  • was woken by wife and
  • took picture

Wife didn't need to take the picture, she woke OP to take the picture

[–] happyhippo@feddit.it 4 points 1 year ago

Technically, nowhere it says she woke OP up.

She just remembered how important this was to OP to the point of either waking OP up and let take a pic, or take a pic on her own.

We will never know...

[–] stebo02@sopuli.xyz 4 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

if op is the one who took the picture then there's no problem indeed, my bad

I hate people that text and drive. Pull over.

[–] bloubz@lemmygrad.ml 20 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Wife took a picture, there is no texting and driving

[–] dingus@lemmy.world 19 points 1 year ago (3 children)

I mean, she was definitely using her phone while driving at 70mph. Does it really matter whether or not she was taking a pic or sending a text? It's still incredibly dangerous.

[–] takeda@lemmy.world 69 points 1 year ago (2 children)

No, it was all safe. She took the picture from the passenger seat while OP was sleeping.

[–] norbert@kbin.social 5 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (4 children)

I feel like a lot of people have never done a long road trip where you're driving hundreds of miles through the night. Taking your phone out and snapping a pic isn't a huge deal IMO. I certainly don't pull over to change my radio and taking a picture is arguably easier than that.

glad she slowed down to 70mph before taking the pic

[–] RagnarokOnline@reddthat.com 45 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

If you look closer, you’ll see she’s doing 69.

[–] expatriado@lemmy.world 16 points 1 year ago (1 children)

oh, that would be unsafe on the road

[–] psycho_driver@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

Honestly it's hard to pull off in bucket seats as well.

[–] menemen@lemmy.world 22 points 1 year ago

70 mph so 110kmh. Basically standing from a German perspective. :)

The maintenance gets tough after 80,000 miles. She's a good wife for letting you know the good days are done.

[–] chiliedogg@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Maybe in the 1970s. Any modern car worth owning will be way more reliable than that if you change your oil regularly.

We have a 2004 F-150 with 565,000 miles on the original engine and it's still running great. We had to get a new transmission at 240k, and I think that's the only repair it's needed over about $200.00

I got multiple SAABs (Pre GM/1991 or older) to over 1,000,000 miles. Got one to 1,500,000. Never quite hit the golden 2,000,000 mile mark though. Plenty of other people did though. Volvo even has a couple cars that made it to 2,000,000. Don't know of any other brands that will make it that far. Maybe some unicorn of a Honda or Toyota.

Mine got angry at me for taking my picture, but she was talking about her dead dad at the time. (I didn't say a word, just pulled out my camera and snapped the picture).

For context, they were astranged and she was relieved he died.

If it ain't foggy at night: turn off your fog lights. They're blinding oncoming traffic.
